Two decades have passed since he won his dunk title, but Vince Carter remains the best dunker the league has ever seen. (alien.top)

The thing about him is how he is able to take off from anywhere on the court, insane elevation and the finishing is just ferocious.

The dunk over Weis...just pure insanity.

Vince tried dunking on Shaq and stopped trying that ever again. Gotta dunk through good bigs consistently to take that title. So I can’t give it to him when he just stopped playing that way pretty early. The memories were nice though.

Yea like posterizing scrubs like Ben Wallace, Tim Duncan, Alonzo Mourning with iconic dunks obviously did nothing for his dunking legacy.

Dunking= injuries dunks are still going to happen but the full send dunks have been on the decline.

Didn’t Blake put people on posters every week when he got started?

He was lazy overall. He could have been the goat if he worked hard.

Vince Carter got the Raptors a Christmas Day game. That’s how great of a dunker he was.

I still think his vertical was even higher than listed. Maybe he just didn't test out well or something, but that man had springs in his shoes.

If Zion would stay healthy for once he could be up there with the likes of VC, Dominique, and MJ.

He also had the 2nd GOAT shoes, next to Jordans...

Those Nike Shox were awesome.

no question. I was a kid when I saw 2000 dunk contest highlights. Got me hooked to watch nba/basketball ever since .
