Am I the only one who prefers a smooth lay up to a dunk
You're more Mugsy Bogues than MJ arent you?
Even me, whom by no standards on earth is in any way, shape or form 'tall' was able to dunk at like 17. Gotta work on dem legs and form mang 
What? No, I can't dunk, but I don't see anything impressive about dunking from an athletic stand point. I'm talking about from the point of a spectator, not a player. You even said that it doesn't take you much to dunk, proving my point. A dunk is only cool if it styles on someone (rare) or the players nuts are in their face after the dunk. Otherwise, I prefer the smoothness of a beautiful lay up. Lay ups are beautiful and are an art. But even you can dunk.
When did we start talking about playing basketball? I'm pretty sure I can out dribble you anyways. I wouldn't need a dunk.
