Where does Deandre Jordan's dunk rank all time?

Personally i think it is number 1 because of how it all looked with brandon knight falling the bench going crazy and his nose being at the rim.

Not close. It's better than Blake's "dunks," but Knight is only 6'3", and south of 200 lbs.

Agreed

This dunk is getting gassed out of proportion. Its like a 27 year old Shaq dunking on a HS kid. Big deal.

If anything Knight should have known better than to even try that.

The thing is the dunk was so hype and the power involved was amazing

If you think that's the best dunk of all time you haven't been watching basketball very long.

Re: Where does Deandre Jordan's dunk rank all time?

That was a top posterizing dunks of all time.

Some off the top of my head:

Jordan baseline on Ewing
KJ over Akeem
Wade on Varejo
Wade on Perkins
Blake Griffin on Perkins
BG on Gasol
Starks baseline drive against Chicago
Vince Carter over Alonzo Mourning
Pippen's dunk on Ewing
The Kemp dunk when he starts pointing at the dude on the ground
Vince Carter jumping over dude in the Olympics
Vince Carter jumping over Tim Duncan
Wilkins dunking over Bird
Kobe on Yao

There are probably some other dunks out there but when you put Jordan's dunk up against some of the best... its up there. The power of the dunk makes it special.

The dunk is good, but there's quite a few dunks I can think of that I would rate ahead of DeAndre's dunk.

The two I think of right away is Vinsanity's dunk in the 2000 olympics and Scottie Pippen stepping over Ewing after posterizing him

Another than Knight foolishly jumping in his way there isn't anything about that dunk that separates it from any other great oop.. In my opinion anyways
