Even if it doesn't top any countdowns, I'm sure it will be featured on a few nevertheless.

That one is #1 in my books so far this year.

These three are tied for my #2 right now.

Iggy's Cradle Dunk

Wade's destruction of Varajao

Pierce on Bosh's Nuts

Yeah that's a tough call. For the moment, I'd probably rank them:

1. Brewer
2. Wade
3. Iguodala
4. Pierce

Damn close though.

[Modifly]

I'd vote Brewer's dunk #1 just because it was on the Lakers.

[J@3]

1: Iguodala
2: Brewer
3: Wade

[Oznogrd]

1. Pierce
Not the best dunk but you cant beat a shot in the nuts as the ultimate fuck you on top of getting posterized
2. Brewer
3.Wade
4. Iggys (wasnt that impressed, it was just thrown down really hard.)

when in doubt, quote one of our posts and it will show you the bbcode

That was a pretty nasty dunk, but I'd probably rank it below the others.

Chandler wanted none of Thrill Bynum.

After watching Brewer's dunk a couple of times. It was great that it was against the Lakers and Brewers like flying but I can't find it spectacular.

Iguodala's dunk is nice. Wade dunk's is sick and Oneal block on Lebron . Pierce dunk is even more sick and brutal. Poor Bosh.

[Null17]

I'm with dei. The dunk is great but I don't really see how that's #1 when it was against a little guy like fisher and it was on a 3-on-1 break.

[Andrew]

For me, it's the height he got and the distance he jumped from.

[JaoSming]

the Will Bynum dunk was a nice one, but it lacks one thing the rest of these dunks have.....contact

well, aside from Iggy's dunk, but he rocked that shit hard after cutting through traffic.

It was great because it was on Fisher, that's the whole point of that dunk.

[Sportsgamer]

I dont like Pirece Dunk at all
Knee first? coward

Iggy woulöd be my vote. or lebron against the thunder yesterday

[hova-]

The Wade dunk is a bit hyped. Brewer takes off from far behind. I like it more.

[Valor]

Dirty play by Pierce, such a cowardly cheap shot

phpBB [video]

surprised nobody mentioned about this? He literally flew through the air

and what about this one?

phpBB [video]

[JaoSming]

they lack the overall presence of defense though which makes them less impressive. the height on the tip slam is awesome to see, but dunking over a player that is trying to stop you is way more impressive than any wide open or un-contested dunk, even if its a 720 thru the legs.

at everyone hating on Pierce, too bad i just moved that up to #1 on my list for dunk of the year

[Modifly]

I thought Pierce's dunk was pretty good until I saw the replay and saw him going up knee-first, which also looks kinda intentional.

[JaoSming]

Bosh shouldnt have jumped, its not like Pierce threw it at him after the dunk

[Andrew]

I'd give Pierce the benefit of the doubt on that one. Bosh was just very unlucky there.

Shannon Brown's dunk against the Suns where his head was at the rim is definitely up there. The put-back is impressive too but as Jon said, the other dunks benefit from the defense doing a better job of getting in the way. Same story with the Will Bynum dunk, it's nice but he goes by Tyson Chandler more than he goes over him.

[TomCat]

Brewer would be my top ranked dunk. It was pretty huge..

[Kenny]

That first Shannon Brown one against the Suns is my favourite. He never ceases to amaze me with his athleticism

[shadowgrin]

That Pierce dunk on RuPaul was nuts.
