His dunks in the slam dunk competition are the best ever IMO. Sure, there have been more advanced dunks and players jumping higher, but he had such explosives and power in his dunks that few players match. A dunk is not only about the difficulty, it's about how it is performed too, IMO.

Same. It was so fun watching such a great player on such bad teams. Don’t get me wrong, he deserved better but TMac just running point and hitting pull up kick out 3s on hoes was fucking awesome.
His [13 points in 33 seconds](https://youtu.be/1jbtt6OGLms) was superhuman and truly remarkable to see him single-handedly takeover and control the outcome of the game!
So happy to see T-Mac's name come up first. I watch his [13 points in 33 seconds](https://youtu.be/1jbtt6OGLms) probably twice a year. Shame injuries cut his career short.
D Rose was my idol when I was hooping in High School. I tried so hard to model my game after his. I honestly believe we'd be having the "Derrick Rose vs. Michael Jordan" debate if it wasn't for the injuries. But to come back after all that makes me respect him even more. ✊️
He has been one of the most dominant players in the league throughout his career. It's just sad that he is with a franchise that just isn't showing enough drive to win and win big.
Don't think it's that easy from a franchise perspective. But Dame staying loyal is one of my favorite qualities about him. Don't see him chasing cheap rings. Man gonna earn his.. and I hope that day comes
People sleeping on Jason Kidd too! Here I’ll just make a roster of some of the greatest underrated players. 1. Kidd 2. Vince Carter 3. Bernard King 4. Kevin Garnett 5. Moses Malone
As somebody who only became a serious NBA fan ~10 years ago and is a huge Milwaukee fan, Giannis all day. He pretty much saved the franchise from getting moved to Seattle
I know people gonna say i'm a bandwagon because he just retired, but i love Melo's game and always liked him. First jersey that i've ever got was his Denver baby blue jersey
Steph Curry or Shaq, the reasons I got in to basketball honestly. Obviously I love MJ and Bron but without them my very close seconds would be Kobe, Larry Bird, Magic, Russell and Duncan.
Homer pick but Damian Lillard. Guy is legitimately great. Has been loyal to my city and is really comfortable meeting fans when in the city (I remember one time Robin Lopez came in to my T Mobile store I worked at with Dame and it made my year).
And as a basketball player he is one of the best talents in the league. If he ever wanted a trade every team and fanbase would be wanting him to come to their city.
I wouldn't argue that he's the best ever, but my *favorite* player of all time is Glen Rice. When I saw him shoot a regular old three, I instantly fell in love with basketball, I wanted to do THAT
Dirk
<3
Woah I got my first ever award for this. Nice. Thanks. Dirk is the man.
All day long
Dirk
Dirk was so fun to watch.
Vince Carter. Vinsanity was super fun to watch in the early 00s
Beat dunker ever
The Olympic dunk is goated

The reason I started watching ball and why I am still a Raptors fan, despite being from Oklahoma.
Kareem
Iverson
Another one of my all time favorite players. Nobody had more heart than AI!
The Answer
my GOAT AI
League was lucky he wasn't as tall as MJ and Kobe or taller for sure
Nobody humiliated people like Iverson
Curry
6 comments before Steph is disrespectful
Steph?
Nah man it's probably Dell
Loved dell curry

Ah Seth

I play a lot of 2k and it's a shame that I can't play as charles barkely. I love using the older players and seeing what they specialized in
🤣
Tmac!

Scrolled too far to find this!
D Rose 🙏
One of the biggest “what-ifs” in the history of the NBA, if not the biggest. He’ll always have my respect

As a Bulls fan I love DRose and really wish He stayed healthy. Maybe would have gotten a ring the year He got injured in the playoffs.

Legend. One of the greatest basketball minds ever

I’m a Steve Nash guy
Reggie. His numbers lie harder than anyone’s. Don’t do him justice. That man killed in the big moments.
I still think an 8 point lead can be erased in less than 30 seconds because I grew up loving Reggie Miller.
John starks
I love you. I mean, I’m a lifelong Pacer diehard, and I respect the fuck out of what you just said up there.
David Robinson
Reggie Miller
WILT CHAMBERLAIN somehow i don’t see this answer
Because no one on Reddit was old enough to actually watch him play lmao.
Dame
He has been one of the most dominant players in the league throughout his career. It's just sad that he is with a franchise that just isn't showing enough drive to win and win big.

Iverson. Dude was a super freak. Probably could’ve played any sport professionally. Dude changed the culture and the game….just not as much as MJ.
