^ Nice list.

I think we have to discern between flashy dunkers and players who dunk as a part of their game.

Many dunkers used to be able to put up some flashy dunks when open, but only a few used the dunk because a layup would be effective.

Jordan, Vince, T-Mac, those are probably the top 3 I've seen, because they went to the basket looking to dunk on people, because it was the highest percentage they could get. Kobe was great too, but he was too much of a shooter to really seek out the dunk. Lebron, sure, very, very effective, like Sir Charles, but not with a lot of flash.

D-Wade, also a very good in game dunker.

As far as in-game goes, Dominique has to be top 3.

Damn. I totally forgot about Jr smith and josh. Francis and westbrook too

If we narrow to 10... mine would be

Blake
Wilkins
Jordan
Kemp
Green
Carter
Kobe
Lebron

And you better bet Obi and Ja will be here when they hit their primes


Edit: forgot about Drexler -_-

Good list. Also, McDyess, the one big man who reminded me of Kemp when it came to the combo of power and grace. Also, can't forget Daryl Dawkins (R.I.P.), Clyde Drexler, Dr. J and Miles Bridges. LaPhonso Ellis another underrated in-game dunker.

That's right!

I didn't see Nique play though, only in Spurs after he went to Europe for that one season.

Looking at his highlights, he was mean as fukk.
