Whammie!

Is that CGI ?

This is such a fun thread. Keep it coming!

I'm doing this because I wanna see some dunks that people might remember that maybe don't get the hype because it wasn't a big game or a big name. Some of that may have been lost to history.

Here's my personal, absolute favorite dunk of all time. Larry Nance Jr. over Brook Lopez.

The Lakers sucked. Nance isn't some household name. Just a random regular season game between two bad teams. No one remembers it or cared about it.

We talking only NBA?

I was at this game. Absolutely insane. The arena just buzzed for about a minute afterwards.

“Time-out, Portland.”

Yeah - Portland needed a time-out.

Darryl Dawkins. Chocolate Thunder.

Dawkins was the most powerful dunker the world has ever known.

And the “The Chocolate-Thunder-Flying, Glass-Flying, Robinzine-Crying, Babies-Crying, Glass-Still-Flying, Cats-Crying, Rump-Roasting, Bun-Toasting, Thank You-Wham-Bam-I-Am-Jam” dunk was his best ever:

Easy:


Didn't see it live, but Reignman at the height of his powers is hard to beat. I especially loved the unbridled taunting of Alton Lister afterwards.

Wow. That’s fantastic. Shawn Kemp, before he got fat, could get UP.

I like the little guys, even if he was on the wrong team then.

This one is pretty sweet

We talking only NBA?

Oh no. Obviously there's plenty of room for classic WNBA dunks too!

Can't find it, but JR Smith's frog splash dunk vs the Knicks in 2015 was on another level.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Oh no. Obviously there's plenty of room for classic WNBA dunks too!

I meant college…

Akron’s own Jerome Lane:

Nowhere near the greatest dunk, but I love this one.


Fred... What a legend.

 

[KilgoreTrout]

Did not know: LeBron, Jordan, and Love all shattered backboards in high school.

That time Amad Rashad played against college age Shaq for a piece for Inside Stuff...
