    Well the season is over now, and I know that there was a Highlights of the year thread a little while ago, but this one is restricted to dunks only. I have a few already off the top of my head:

    Yao over Malik Rose

    Landry over Diogu
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxrKW1GzF9s

    Landry vs Cavs
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcGkb3V8CaY&NR=1

    Bonzi over Perkins
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReyzmLJBGSU

    T-mac on the break vs Hornets
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wVAmfh60Fg

    better quality, dunk at 2:40 into the video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8xAtDciwrM

    Luther alley-oop to T-mac
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_iKIF9emNA&feature=related

    T-mac over Mcdyess
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K0pmzyp8XZk&NR=1

    I wish I knew how to make it so that the youtube video is actually on the post. I couldn't really make this into a poll because I didn't know if I had all the good ones. You guys can add whatever you think is worthy to be a candidate or choose which one you think is the best.

    Landry didn't dunk over Duncan. It was Yao.
    Landry impressively stole a rebound over Duncan though.

    Tmac has not "lost a step" as you can see when he isn't hobbled by his usually 3-4 nagging injuries per season. That dunk vs. the Hornets showed him take off 10 feet from the rim with defenders in his path and without a full head of steam.

    Not a lot of guys can do that.

    ind0fo0 my mistake. I was thinking facial for some reason. doublebogey is right ... the Landry dunk in the Spurs game should definitely should be considered.

    He used to be able to do that alot better though. All of Tmac's dunks were a little wack, Yao's were too. This thread should only have landry dunks in it. :D

    I love the T-Mac over McDyess, that game was huge and on ESPN. He drove it straight down the line with a few seconds remaining and ended the half right, remember watching it and being pleasantly shocked.

    I guess he might have lost a little lift but I think the whole "lost a step" talk is exaggerated (when healthy). I was never that impressed with his dunks even when he was in Orlando. Loved (note the past tense) his offensive game but I thought the fact that he is 6'8" with freaky long arms made him look like he got a lot higher on his dunks than he really did.

    The Yao dunk on Garnett was awesome, but I still go with Landry over Duncan.
