Who Dunked It Better? LeBron James vs Sean Elliott

Against the hot shooting Hawks, LeBron James punctuated a game-changing two minute flurry at the end of the fourth with a monstrous dunk over Paul Milsap.


In an excuse to dig up a twenty year old gem, we compare LeBron's effort against that of Sean Elliott, who caught a boost from Vlade Divac on his way to this impressive finish:


Given that LeBron (1) did this with 15 seconds to go in a tight game; (2) steamrolled the dude who was having a career night from beyond the arc; and (3) isn't an overly biased Spurs commentator, he gets our nod.

  1. Liked Sean a a player but agreed, annoying as a Spurs announcer. However this vindicates in my mind how the athleticism hasn't changed from today to the 90s or even back to the 70s. People talk about the 70s players like they're a million years old. 1 million years will show you big time changes, not 40 years.
