here's my picks:
1. vince carter -- since his rookie year, vince carter has been drawing lots of attention. one of his highlights that i really love is during the 2000 olympics where he jumped right over the 7'2 frederick weiss of france. that was sick!
2. michael jordan -- probably the most versatile player ever and he's best at everything he does, even dunking. aside from his usual MVPs, NBA titles and other awards, michael jordan is a great dunker too. whether its a breakaway or an over the back dunk, MJ can do it.
3. shawn kemp -- the 'reignman' as he was called. he has posterized lots of NBA players, guards, forwards and even centers. whether he's on the recieving end of a gary payton alley-oop or doing it by himself, shawn kemp is always at his best
4. julius erving -- the man who transformed dunking into an art. with his tremendous leaping ability, julius 'dr. j' erving turned dunking into an entertainment show during the 70's and 80's. for short, dr. j started it all
5. grant hill -- dikembe mutombo, alonzo mourning, hakeem olajuwon, patrick ewing. these are just some of the players in grant hill's list. and what do they have all in commmon? they are all menacing shotblockers of the NBA.. and they're all in grant hill's posters
some other dunkers
6. kobe bryant
7. shaquille o'neal
8. darryl dawkins
9. dominique wilkins
10. clyde drexler

Yes, I agree with you my friend that Vince Carter is the best NBA dunker of all time.I really enjoyed watching him those acrobatic dunks he made during his rookie and sophomore years.

I'm with MJ. He has earned a highness reputation. What ever moves it is, he can convert it into a geat dunk.
Anyway, can you please add Spud Webb to the list? He is great too!!!
