Chocolate Thunder Dawkins.

He hovered over the cowering nerds Einstein and Shakespeare in a dunk contest, which was the deciding factor in the "Man of the Millenium" contest.

Clearly Ceballos.

He was my pick too. Dammit if I could find a pic of one of his glass shettering dunks. All I could come up with was a list of the names he gave his dunks. Anyone who has names for this many dunks is unparrelled.

Dunk Names
Chocolate Thunder Flying,
Robinzine Crying, Teeth Shaking,
Glass Breaking, Rump Roasting,
Bun Toasting, Wham Bam,
Glass Breaker I Am Jam
In-Your-Face Disgrace
Go-Rilla Dunk
Earthquaker Shaker
Candy Slam
Dunk You Very Much
Look Out Below
Yo Mamma
Sexophonic
Turbo Delight
Rim Wrecker
Greyhound Bus (went coast-to-coast)
Cover Your Head
Spine Chiller Supreme

Re: The best dunker in NBA history?
 

IMO, 'Nique is definitely the best 'in-game' dunker ever. Shawn Kemp was also very impressive until he gained 50pounds had as many kids.

Jordan or Carter. But I've never seen Earl Manigault play.

Re: The best dunker in NBA history?
 

Dominique Wilkins.

Re: The best dunker in NBA history?
 

Ew god. Jordan and it's not close, especially his in game ferocious dunks.

Re: The best dunker in NBA history?
 

Dominique. Drexler deserves mention too.
You guys remember when Spud beat Dominique in the dunk contest? In 86 I think.

Ononimo's Top 5 All-Time Dunkers

1. Carter - Pound for pound and inch for inch, the best overall combination of creativity, finesse, power, and, at times, pure viciousness. And the dunk over Frederic Weis is one of, if not, the best in-game dunks ever.

2. Jordan - his hangtime, speed to the basket, and ability to make even the most simple dunks look like poetry in motion is beyond compare.

3. 'Nique - the first to regularly combine acrobatics and brute force into his dunks in game settings... the first hybrid between the Dr. J school (finesse) and the Chocolate Thunder school (power) of dunking.

4. Dr. J - a pioneer due to his finesse ... introduced the concept of "hangtime".

5. Darryl Dawkins - pure brute force with demoralizing consequences for the opposing team. singlehandedly responsibly for changing how backboards were constructed.


Darryl Dawkins and Dr. J were the building blocks. 'Nique was the first to fuse those two schools.

While Jordan was the ultimate refinement of the Dr. J school, Vince is the ulitmate synthesis of Chocolate Thunder and Dr. J without anything being sacrificed due to the combination.

Everyone else may be a refinement of their basic building block but lesser than their archetype, with the possible exception of Amare (pre-injury), who may be better than 'Nique.

To not include Vince in a top-5 list is ridiculous.

Re: The best dunker in NBA history?
 

Dominique is the correct answer here. I stil think he got hosed at the dunk contest in Chicago that one year. But I'll throw out Darrel Griffith. You youngsters may not have heard of 'Dr. Dunkenstein'. Oh, and 'Jammin' James Bailey.

Re: The best dunker in NBA history?
 

carter in his prime was the best dunker of all time.

the best dunker currently is either gerald green, andre iguodala, or jason richardson.
