I agree Jrich probably got snubbed for no reason. You have to excuse me. Someone asked how many warriors games have you watched. I dont live in the Bay area anymore so to answer your question, only the ones on national TV or when they come to a town I am in to play the local team until this year when I got the NBA league pass and only watched about half the games...
My email sent to ESPN Classic... http://proxy.espn.go.com/chat/sportsnation...?event_id=2745# How can you leave Jason Richardson off the list for contention? There are several clips of him dunking over shot blockers like Emeka Okafor, his 2 dunk contest wins (and him getting robbed by Fred Jones), his fast break dunks, etc. I am not just a homer either, there are several fans of other teams who think this is crazy... http://www.justbball.com/forums/showthread.php?t=65164 Let me know what you think. Thanks.

Thanks.</div> nice one. i sent them an e-mail as well. how does the man with the greatest dunk contest dunk of all time (as voted by nba.com) NOT receive any mention as one of the 20 greatest dunkers? i thought this was plain ridiculous.
I loved this dunk over Shawn Bradley a few years back... when we first started our domination over the Mavs. heh http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Axi9Y4Mh8p4
This is absurd that JRich isn't on this show or this list to vote. I mean they have Isaiah Rider and no JRich. Yikes! But who is your top five dunkers if you had the choice including JRich? (this is my list) 1.Vince 2. Dr. J. 3. MJ 4. Jason Richardson 5. Dominique Wilkins
Sweet mix AF -- now those are some serious Posterizations! Dude Kemp did some serious taunting -- I love it! Like that dunk at the end on the Warriors, where he cuffed it into a windmill and dunked (I think on Gatling), and then he squatted down and started pointing at the fallen player, lol!
<div class="quote_poster">custodianrules2 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">No Darryl Dawkins, Clif? Aw c'mon man show some love. </div> I am too young...hehe. Man Shawn Kemp was a beast. Now maybe there is a type of player Andris can try to become. I kept replaying that dunk he had yesterday in my mind when watching those Shawn Kemp highlites. Yeah, I suppose Andris has some way to go still, but he's 20 and has time.
Watch the highlights posted on this site under "Watch Highlights". Biedrins' dunk is near the end. I suppose Andris doesn't have quite the hops Kemp has, maybe I was just using some wishful thinking. But it was a cool dunk, especially when watching it as the game was going in real time. http://www.nba.com/games/20070115/LACGSW/gameinfo.html
LOL it says that MJ is veted by 60% of the people lol! he might be the GOAT but he sure is not the best dunker! he can simply jump high but he isnt too creative... and why is wade almost at the bottom? LOL

LOL</div> Michael Jordan is probably the best finisher near the basket that there has ever been. With his hangtime and body control he was great, not just at dunking but getting the ball in the hoop. Jordan's creativity might be inferior compared to what people can do in dunk contests today and he might have not been a power dunker like Kemp or others but that free throw line dunk in the dunk contest opened new pathways to what is possible. Here are some of Jordan's dunks http://youtube.com/watch?v=lgoHPdjIWVI Jordan is definitley top 5 (which is how the voting is done). Wade has only been in the league for 3 or 4 years and how many dunk contests has he been in? I don't find it surprising that Wade is near the bottom.

(Bump) This is airing on Monday February 19th. I am curious if they somehow decided to add JRich or not...hmm...
oh yeah thx for providing the Biedrins clip, Clif! No luck on Jrich. He gets screwed by ESPN and he gets screwed by the nba when it comes to being a judge on the dunk contest. I guess allstar weekend is reserved for all-stars in name. I guess Jrich is only popular to us warrior fans. To everyone else he's Desmond Mason or Fred Jones.
