    Worst officiated games in a long time but dat dunk was brutal. Also dirk and Tracy would make a shootout out of this before KD came along.

    T-Macs dunk was aesthetically nicer, but Hardens dunk was on an important stage, at important time in the game, and on a elite defensive player.

    I’ll go with deh berdddddd.

    That Harden dunk easily.

    For so many reasons.

    T-Mac dunk was on another level and even the Dallas crowd was amazed. Hardens dunk was great though and a proper facial, but letting Draymond shove him to the ground post dunk and end up standing while James is on the floor kind of kills it though. If he could have done the opposite and shove Draymond to the ground post dunk ala Pippen on Ewing and stood over Green, it would have been one for the ages.

    Tmacs was better, Harden's will be more important.

    That's really hard to decide. If anyone thinks this is easy than they either REALLY hate Tmac or they REALLY hate Draymond.

    I don't have ANY feelings towards Shawn Bradley, and after watching that 30 for 30, I feel kinda sorry for him. But that dunk had me crunkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk live. I can still hear the "Tracy McGrady just sucked the gravity right out of the building!" Still gives me goosebumps.

    Last night's dunk was close to being as nice, but he didn't get nearrrrrrr the elevation and he dunked on a 6'7" guy, not a 7'2" guy (or whatever Bradley is). What adds to Harden's is all the trash talking from Draymond and the fact that it was a pretty hard foul.

    Tmac's > Harden's by a slim margin.

    Tmac's dunk was more impressive from a technical standpoint
    Harden's is more satisfying from a dunk over a ass clown standpoint

    Both were amazing.

    Can’t believe I’m saying this but harden for sure just because of the defender quality

    TMac's was the legendary, signature move in a great (if heartbreaking) series, but as nice of a guy as Shawn Bradley was, he became a target for guys to dunk on because of his height and relative lack of strength.

    Harden took it to Draymond Green, the modern NBA's defensive boogieman, in his own house, in a must win game that absolutely mattered.

    Harden gets my vote.

    The stronger contest was offered by green so that helps. The liftoff was from a similar distance and harden had a fuller head of steam. Oh, and WCF

    Harden > tmac

    Harden's took place in the WCF against an annual contender of DPOY... how is this even a question?

    Clearly is Harden no question.

    Firstly Shawn didn’t get there in time to really contest that dunk. Kinda like how Capela was late against Livingston. Tmac had a free lane to elevate. Also tmac didn’t get held or fouled before he elevated. Also this wasn’t a conference finals and against the best team and their best defender.
    I’ve seen green blocked Lebron and AD.

    Harden was fouled by Curry, he tried to strip the ball from Harden. I was surprise Harden didn’t lose the ball. He was clearly grabbed n fouled by him.
    Then he isn’t known for dunking on people most of his dunks are when there’s no one to contest it. Second green was right there for the blocked and Harden took it like a man and pushed his will on it. If he didn’t he would have miss it since the ball was coming off his has around the rim because of the contact.

    It was just so sweet and unexpected to see Harden dunk on Green Donkey nonetheless. That dunk also sparked and ignited the team to play better and even sweeter Harden didn’t even celebrated or do anything. He was cold blooded and serious like if nothing had happened.

    No need for saiyan mode that was the start of ultra instinct mode :p
