LeBron James: 10 Best Slam Dunks as a Member of the Miami Heat

Known as one of the most prolific dunkers of his time, LeBron James' first season in Miami didn't disappoint.

James finished his 2011 campaign averaging 26.7 points, seven-and-a-half rebounds and seven assists per game, ranking number two in the league in points per game by the season's end.

Finishing 2011 with 98 slams, James was a human highlight reel for fans of the most exciting play in basketball, with none more exciting than the dunks compiled in this slideshow.

Here are LeBron's best dunks as a member of the Miami Heat:

No. 10

We open the slideshow with a tomahawk that James finished via a rebound and dish from teammate Dwayne Wade that resulted in an awesome poster-esque photo.

No. 9

This is just a smooth play all together.  LeBron James snatches the rebound, and outlets the ball to Dwyane Wade, who then throws it up to James for the alley-oop finish.

Great teamwork.

No. 8

This dunk sealed the eastern conference semifinal win for Miami over Boston in the playoffs.

While the dunk is impressive, LeBron's heads up defense and quickness is what really deserves praise here.

No. 7

Here James takes a half-court pass from D-Wade and slams it down for an alley-oop; something James and Wade were quite efficient at in their first season together.

No. 6

His first dunk as a member of the Miami Heat was a good one, as James spins around the defender and slams it home; something he would do 97 more times in 2011.

No. 5

Just an all around pretty move against the Celtics in the playoffs, James uses his momentum, spinning off of Rondo, and finishes at the hoop to get the Miami crowd on their feet.

No. 4

A heads up play by No. 6 to grab the rebound of the Mike Bibby miss and blast the rim for a put-back dunk against Dallas in the 2011 NBA Finals.

No. 3

In one of the most exciting dunks of this past season's NBA Finals, LeBron James soared over Ian Mahinmi to silence the Dallas crowd.

No. 2

After leaving Cleveland and joining Miami, LeBron James gets his revenge by dunking over two Cavs in a route of the Cavaliers.

No. 1

LeBron James' No. 1 dunk of the 2011 season came when it counted, in the Finals against Dallas.

James crossed over the Shawn Marion and leaped past Tyson Chandler to finish his best dunk as a member of the Miami Heat.
