- Cannot be in a dunk contest
- Cannot be in an All Star Game
10. Michael Jordan Over Dikembe Mutombo
This dunk is classic Jordan: Break free from his man, took it strong to the hole and finished hard and posterized the much bigger defender. Bonus points for taking Mutombo's man hood with the finger wave.
9. Vince Carter Over Dikembe Mutombo
Remember when Vince Carter was good and relevant? Here's a glimpse of an early Vinsanity just stuffing it home over Mutombo and giving him the death stare afterward. Who would have thought at this point that Dikembe Mutombo would be more relevant that Vince Carter at this point in time? Certainly not Vince Carter.
8. Vince Carter Over Alonzo Mourning
Again, more Vince Carter, more ownage. Not to mention it's on Alonzo Mourning who I hate so it's all good.
7. Vince Carter Over Weiss
Noticing a trend? I had some internal debate on whether or not this should count because it came in international competition but I leaned toward yes because it's such an ownage dunk. Although it does suffer because it's over some French lackey.
6. Kobe Bryant Over Yao Ming
Welcome to the NBA Yao Ming. Gotta love this dunk for a number of reasons.
- How soft Yao goes up to stop him
- How Kobe was looking for it the whole way
- The call of the dunk
- The ownage factor
Going retro with this decision (sorry for the quality). When you think dunks you think of Dr. J and this is one of his more famous dunks that lead to a Sixers world title and I've got to represent my home town and the Spectrum at some point.
4. LeBron James Over Rasheed Wallace
Pretty much sums up Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals where LeBron went off for 48 points and took the fight out of the Pistons. If you look at it, it's not really Rasheed's fault. Prince gets owned (whose defense has been majorly slipping since the 04 Finals) and Webber (god I hate him so much) is a step too late and leaves Rasheed all alone and LeBron gives him a facial and spot on a poster as he goes to the stripe for one more.
3. Tracy McGrady Over Shawn Bradley
That's Bradley's career in a nutshell right there. He came in as a joke. Was a joke for years. Then got retired by Tracy McGrady. I just like how he ducks. Stand there and take your medicine like a man. Also, great call of the play.
"He just sucked the gravity out of the building!"Classic.
2. Kobe Bryant Over The Whole Knicks Team.
Amazing dunk. Great take to the basket, great elevation, body control and the jam. Bonus points for the pose after and it also goes into classic status with the call of the dunk.
"Kobe Bryant! With no regard for human life!"1. Michael Jordan Over Patrick Ewing.
OWNED! First off Jordan breaks down two Knicks. Then climbs right up over Ewing and right in his face. Then he just stares Ewing down. Priceless. As nice as Jordan is off the court. Once he steps on it, he will do anything to win that game and he does not mess with anyone.
