    McGrady dunk over Bradley is easily the best dunk of all time, imo. It was a playoff game and he tea bagged the tallest player in the league. As a result of that dunk, didn't Bradley literally start crying when people called him soft?

    #2 best dunk was the Yao steal, behind the back dribble and breakaway dunk.

    I love this thread and am trying to find some classics, but so few of the old old games are clipped for youtube. I know the following is exactly what y'all are looking for but give it a chance.

    Bill Willoughby was arguably the greatest leaper in the org's history, even moreso than prime T-Mac or prime Francis. He really helped win us this game in the Garden, in the Finals, way back in the Moses Malone days.

    (his little dunk @ 1:55, but in the whole video you can hear the entire Garden oooh and gasp at his blocked shots, LOL. He once blocked Kareem's sky hook in the playoffs too.)

    Francis gets the Mailman in the playoffs, 2004. No, not the jazz version, the even more pathetic ring-chasing version on the Lakers.

    Sounds like you have some more you want to post. Try this: When you hit "Share" on youtube, there is now a check box for "Start At". If you click that, it will embed code for the time mark that you currently have Paused on the vid. Works great, except when you get over an hour. You have to use different parameters...I don't think it likes "h" for hour, or sumpin.

    Here's the Willoughby you posted set at 1:49.

    Thanks, @heypartner !

    Love me some Hakeem dunks on Robinson.


    And even grandpa Hakeem in his PJs owning Duncan.

    (strangely no sound... maybe Hakeem had his hearing aid off.)
