    OK after yesterdays game i was amazed at ariza's dunk, i mean he hasnt done many fancy dunks but this guy can definately leap and i was wondering who is the rockets best dunker and who would you want to send to All star weekend for the dunk contest?

    I love landry but i think id have to go with ariza. havent seen enough jermaine taylor so ill stick with number 1

    I guess he could do it, you don't technically have to dribble.

    If anyone on here doesn't think Taylor would own anyone on our team in a dunk contest (with maybe the exception of Dorsey), hasnt watched enough summer league or didnt go to the open practice. Yeah C-Bud is a good in-game dunker and he can windmill in practice but taylor is a 6' 4" version of lebron. his one handed tomahawk is lebron esque. He's easily the greatest athlete on our team. EASY

    i wonder if landry could be a dwight lite? he def has the personality to win over a crowd, as for lift and creativity that would have to be seen

    He could do a skit where someone stands under the rim and shoots at him and he dunks all on them anyway.

    I say James White is the best, then Von, then Pops. But they are all really good dunkers.
