Ya' know, I never saw all the hype in that dunk until now. I just turned 59. Been watching since Kareem was Lew Alcindor, but I never got the hype of that dunk. Yes, it is the greatest of all time. Hell, he gathers damn near at the 3-point arc. Then he swings it to keep it from Coop. Then he, in the flow of the game, "rocks" it back the other way. I never saw all the hype in Chick Hearn either, but to call that what it would come to be as it was happening? I have loved Doc's 1980 Finals scoop shot since I saw it as it happened on the tube. We were all floored when it happened. We had seen him get creative, but that scoop was beyond belieft. BUT, the Rock the Baby just might be better.

There's a high degree of difficulty in the dunk by Julius Erving that he makes look so natural and easy.

I saw this live on tv, never forget it.

Docs dunk brings a few tears to my eyes..in regular speed and then when they slow it down has he takes off so far back cupping the rock GOAT of all dunks and no debate

Hard to say one is better than another but Dr. J was just poetry in motion. I saw him play in Oakland once and when he got a breakaway steal the whole crowd came to its feet in anticipation. He threw down a beautiful reverse two-handler and we all went nuts, and this was in OAKLAND which shows how much he was appreciated and respected.

I had Jordan’s dunk on my head at the start of this video and I was right! That is just phenomenal to watch. Dr. J’s dunk is just Biblical. Truly awesome!

Dr. "J" Hands down. Colorful, authoritative, smooth as Chinese silk, airborne, high flying, and innovative!

The Doctor's dunk is my favorite basketball play of all time. NBA Finals. I had been watching him since I was a 10 year old in Norfolk and he played for the Squires. Seeing him steal the ball sprint down the court and rock that baby home in the Finals was the best ever. I met him recently and he's also a kind, humble man. Favorite player ever.

The Doc's dunk is like a painting, artistic. Jordan's is powerful, strategic, like a F-22 stealth fighter taking out an enemy plane before the enemy even knows it is there.

Love this list! Top 2 dunks in history are spot on. I think degree of difficulty is just much harder with Dr. J's dunk all due respect to Jordan's dunk. Jordan had an incredible move getting out of the corner of the 2 Knick's players. I mean I have literally never seen a move like that before and to elevate over Ewing was audacious! Michael's greatest dunk for sure. Doctor's dunk stands alone. There has never been a dunk like that before or since in NBA history. Nobody has even attempted a dunk like that and the fact that it was on a full sprint coming from the side and having to navigate against Michael Cooper - one of the top 2 or 3 defenders of all time - AND come up with a straight arm windmill power jam was EPIC!

Even John Starks admits he didn't realize Jordan was there. That's how not in the play Jordan was and the media tried so hard to ensure "Jordan got posterized". The fact that Jordan runs from the key to attempt to be a factor in the play shows how far he actually was from getting posterized.

Dr J’s Rock the Baby is like watching an eagle soar for sharing the first time. Just pure poetry, power, and elegance. Simply majestic. I choose Dr. J, the most beautiful and breathtaking dunker of all time.
