Wade to Kobe in Greece game.

Gibson to LeBron in 08 playoffs against Wizards game 1

I'm not saying these are the greatest but they're the first to come to my mind.

Man, Vince is an artist! He's the Cezanne of the dunking.

Everyone knows it's Bill Walton's double alley oop at the end of this video.

Other Blazer fans will hate me, but that Kobe to Shaq oop in game 7 in 2000 that put them up by ~5 iirc and basically capped our chances of winning was probably not the most amazing looking dunk, but it was one of the most meaningful imo

I love the double alley oop--two straight alley oops with virtually no vertical. I'd be willing to bet there is a combined 6" of vert between the two :D

The G-Hill and Tim Duncan dunks in that video are probably their most athletic accomplishments, wow.

Oh, and JayDubya beat me to it, but Dwight's alley oop out of bounds pass from Hedo dunk over Duncan to win the game at the buzzer far exceeds anything Vince Carter has done.

Check out Oberto's facial expression at around 1:20 and Dwight psyching himself up at the start.
Also, it was JJ Redick's best game in the pros to date. :rofl:

Lamar Odom's alley-oop to Darius Miles back in 02. Too lazy to look for it but that's got to be on the top, if not the greatest.
