lets here what creative dunks you can come up with for crash.
here's my idea... wallace starts to dunk and and jumps but cant get to the rim... he looks puzzled... he tries to dunk again but cant... looks puzzled. he looks into the crowd and sees MJ sitting courtside. he runs over to MJ. MJ whispers in his ear and hands crash a #23 bobcats jersey. crash puts it on and the heads back out to the court where he then proceeds to do the classic MJ lean dunk.
also, fun article on crash - includes awesome video - top 10 dunks of wallace's career

While I enjoy the gimmick "performance" dunks, as well as the sheer athletic feat dunks (free throw line, slapping up the sticker), I think that the point of the contest, and the "best" dunks, are just flashy ball movement on your way to the rim. To put it in concrete terms, something more like this:

Wow... y'know, people say the dunk contest has gotten tame, but lets be serious, the vast majority of the dunks in that list have never been done and would be earth-shattering in the context of the contest. But like the video creator says, NBA is the best basketball, not the best dunkers.

great find slam. thats was awesome. the top 11 was insane. like paydro said, most of those dunks have never been done in the nba dunk contest and people would lose their collective minds if an nba player threw those down.
crash.... watch this video and start practicing.

Westbrook and T.Will really should have been in the dunk contest. With their handles and hops they could have put on quite the show.
I can't see guys like Crash, DeRozan, Gordon or Nate pulling these sorts of party tricks off.
Shannon might be able to though?

For his first dunk, he should walk up to Nate and throw the ball as hard as he can at his face then as Nate lay there on the ground knocked the eff out, walk off arms raised triumphantly in the air.
Perfect score straight off the bat.

The MJ thing would be neat.... but check out this spin of it....
Crash invites (secretly) the guy who put Charlotte NBA basketball ON THE MAP. Does a few attempts like fats mentioned looking dumbfounded like he can't dunk. Goes into the stands and reveals LJ (whose from Dallas anyway). LJ high fives him, he then removes his warmup top to reveal the #2 Larry Johnson jersey and proceeds to do something sick along the lines of this:

except, LJ probably cant dunk any longer. dude could barely dunk by his 5th season after the back injury. too bad, he was so nasty in that dunk contest he did.

Maybe Crash should get MJ to lob him the alley oop pass?
No, wait, I've got it!!
Maybe MJ could appear on the court literally riding a pony and carrying a dog screaming "welcome to my show"???

haha, the literal dog and pony show. i love it. how about we line mj's and his horse/dog up under the basket and let crash dunk over them.
more likely we see numerous shots of MJ sitting in the stands wearing a chicago bulls baseball cap.

I meant Crash would be wearing the #2 LJ Jersey, not LJ himself. lol
Grandmama can barely walk I bet.

I still think Crash needs to get Nachbar out of Turkey and pitch him under the basket like in that pre-season.
Dog and pony...I'm speechless. Imagine Nate going next and slippin on a horsesh*t.

Notes
G Raymond Felton twisted his ankle in practice and left the workout early to get treatment. Brown was uncertain if it would keep him out of Tuesday's game. ... Browns said several players, including Felton, Stephen Jackson and Flip Murray, were ill in Saturday's loss to New Orleans. "As frustrated as I was, I know this team tries," Brown said. "So that's a blip." ... Murray will be Wallace's partner in one round of Saturday's All-Star dunk competition.

Murray??? Everytime he gets his hands on the ball he is more likely to shoot it than pass it.
Maybe Crash will try and win off tip jamming Murray's missed shots.
