nba.com ranks Ricky Davis the #3 dunker in the league, above Lebron, Amare, TMac, and J-Rich. Check it out - http://www.nba.com/inside_stuff/ten_dunkers_041230.html
I'd have to say that I disagree with that. Lebron, J-Rich, and Mason are all better dunkers in my opinion. I think most people would tend to agree with me. Just look at the poll, Ricky is last place in it.
That list is definitely pretty accurate, I was suprised that I didn't see Richard Jefferson up there, but then again he probably isn't too far behind.
I don't now... Of the guys listed I would only say that LeBron and Amare should be ahead of Ricky. J-Rich isn't an incredible in-game dunker. Dunk contests etc. I would give it to him, but in-game... Give me Ricky! E.G. The dunk on Steve Nash. That was a thing of beauty IMO.
I haven't really seen to much Ricky Davis highlights this year. But hey, it doesn't bother me too. And J-Rich really is only 6'3. And he does quite a few windmills and even did a little windmill reverse off the lob at the end of last season. That's a pretty good game dunker IMO.

FILTHY! It would be great to see Tony in the Dunk Contest. Did you see what he did to Rodgers on the way down from one of those dunks? He grabbed him by the head on his way down. I know it was probably unintentional, but I loved it. Rodney didn't know what to do.

I guess they didn't catch it on TV, but a few minutes later he tried to catch Allen in the ribs with an elbow while setting a screen. I was screaming for a tech.
