Great Live-Action Dunks
For those of us that weren’t around to catch this one live, the image of Dr. J rocking the cradle and jamming it over a very good defender in Michael Cooper lives on in infamy.

Oh, Patrick. We feel for you.

From former victim to current teammate, Kobe once threw this ferocious dunk down and over his buddy Steve Nash back in the day.
This might technically get you an assault charge in certain states. Just nasty.
