They don't have it on YouTube, but Dr. J (Julius Erving) when he was in the ABA finals with the New Jersey Nets jumped just inside the free throw line, faked left, the defender cut off his pass to the right so he continued his spin and dunked the ball. VERY impressive.
In a dunk contest, again not on YouTube. Gerry Wright (who played at USC and later at Iowa) did the most unique dunk I've ever seen. He started at the half court line running in while palming the ball - he didn't dribble in. He then did a handspring (or a round-off or a cartwheel - I'm not sure which) off his free hand and when he came out of the handspring he jumped up and dunked. I've NEVER seen anyone else even attempt such a dunk.

Vince Carter's reverse windmill from behind the back board in the Slam Dunk contest. or MJ/Dominique duel in Chicago 1988...you could pick any dunk by either MJ or 'Nique to be considered best dunk ever. The competition was amazing! Best in game dunk would have to be MJ over Patrick Ewing in the 1991 playoffs. or Pippen's dunk over Ewing in game 6 of the 1994 playoffs. (Very underrated dunk)
