Zach Lavine, Aaron Gordon

First 2/3yrs in the league, sure. Since? Just during dunk contest. They not yammin on anyones heads outside of the play or 2 a year

Giannis by far

And low key John collins

Don't forget George Mureasan Tree Rollins
But these nikkaz don't qualify. Giannis can moonlite as one but he is a passive agressive type with that.
He's skilled and can yam on anyuone because of his height. But that's not his game.
He gotta Jam on Embiid 3 or more times in a game, asserting his dominance. And its sad cuz I know if you a young buck then you never seen the style of basketball being discussed here. That or you didn't read the OP

if he talking dunk contest I agree
but in game

This

pre 01 the runways were clear for takeoff

now you will see all types of defenders before you get rolling

way less scenarios where you just have to beat one defender to get that open look

You sound crazy, besides hand checking, there was no easy baskets back then. The lane was for pain.
So then Jordan had nothing but lanes you say? Detroit Bad Boys did no damage in the lanes that they clogged, nope. It was runnways all day

2 pages in yet no one has shown me what they consider to be a great Blake Griffin dunk.....but I'm wrong for saying he wasn't a great dunker. Still waiting for someone to show me that weak ass Slam Dunk competition he won




Aaron Gordon, a two time loser of the slam dunk competition is a better dunker then Blake Griffin. Get mad.

Aaron Gordon had the best slam dunk contest performance ever imo.
This thread isn't about that. Its about his career and Aaron isn't even a max player because he doesn't perform like that in game.
You know who did?

If you look up an aaron gordan highlight video, it'll be much shorter and way less bodies.

they played more physical defense & gave out harder fouls true

that's also due to officiating

still you got way more posters because when you can strand a defender one on one on that island with every other defender having to stick with their assignment it means a footrace to the rim

very different from the wall of defenders that can park themselves in your path now

look into what the players said about the zone when it was seen as some schoolboy soft euro shyte & how they were against it¿

There's other factors like 3pters not being exploited like a videogame. And because of that, the game itself would take place closer to the basket.
Todays league its all about floor spacing, right?
My point is, and this is a fact. The lane was clogged more then. Nowadays you see people getting lanes to the basket all the time.
No easy baskets was a league mandate, now its suggested by a couple teams. I'm sorry bruh, I just flat out disagree but at the same time I get where you're coming from

3's get spammed in response to team defenses

the architecture & space on the floor changed with the rules

we all see things differently though true enough..........

Also don’t forget Anthony Edwards, it’s tough for him to get dunks now but he had one of the best in season dunks in years
