Favorite old school Dunkers:
Dr. J
Larry Nance
David Thompson
My favorite underrated dunker that hasn't been mentioned:
Latrell Sprewell
But the all-time best dunkers to me are:
Dominique
Jordan
Vince Carter

Chocolate Thunder from the planet Lovetron.
Dude shattered backboards. The NBA changed to breakaway rims because of him!

If you were doing a list of top 10 home run hitters, would it matter if some guys didn't participate in the HR Derby?
Just think about the volume of dunks, the dunks that impacted games, the explosion to dunk through and over defenders. I could easily see an argument for LeBron being #1.

Dr. J.
He invented the concept of the flamboyant fancy dunk.

In game
The in-game case for LJ is strong.
The only guys who have more total dunks than him are post players who generally needed an assist or some type of setup to get the dunk. Whereas so many of LJ's are on drives, adding a predunk level to the degree of difficulty. That's part of why he's over 50% on FGs. So if the criteria is weighted toward utility dunks -- dunks that contributed to winning basketball games, LeBron has to rank high.
Most rankings aren't about that, though. They're more about dunk contests, fast-break dunks, uncontested creativity. But there's no law that a criteria has to be more about this stuff.

Good list. You nailed the top 8 imo. I would replace Shaq with David Thompson at #9.

If we're including non-NBA players, Jordan Kilganon.
