I see your point there but ya gotta admit - the jump Vince put in to get OVER his guy was far more impressive than what Chambers did

It has become the most overrated dunk ever imo.

He just split his legs while fouling / using his offhand to push/smash his opponents head down & which is the only cause to the opponent reacting by ducking down quickly aswell, you really think he would be able to get over him fair & square? lmao..... except for that it was a simple one handed dunk...

Lebron over Lucas alone was a far better clearance (a man jumping over a man fair & square, no contact) and a better dunk (alley-oop while clearing the guy under like a plane) and has been done in the NBA.

you have to be the only man capable of arguing for a 6'8 SF jumping over a small guard who wasn't looking as more impressive than a 6'6 SG dunking over a 7' C.

You are incredible. :bowdown:

[SugarHill]

Man said "split his legs"...like he's expecting someone to have their feet on top of a 7 footers head :roll:

Like i have explained very well i think... and if you want to talk about 6'6 guys jumping over or dunking over 7 footers in similar fashion then why is this Kobe dunk not as famous for example?

http://ballislife.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/17736-kobe-dunk-on-dwight-howard.jpg



You know why? Because Kobe didnt "jump over him" (which VC didnt do anyways).....

You know whats the difference between that VC dunk and this Kobe dunk over Dwight?

Difference is Dwight is holding his hands up and is not getting his head mushed down (fouling/helping yourself with the off-hand) which is a bit harder to clear....

This dunk was as good & maybe better....


THAT VC DUNK IS OVERRATED.... ITS GREAT.... BUT OVERRATED....

[SugarHill]

You're delusional af

lucas was basically bowing. lebron didn't "jump over him" either like you claim because he split his legs too. He wasn't even looking. If he didn't, lebron would have fell over. His feet slid over dude's back.

But it's lebron so it's a better dunk. Nevermind the size difference, nevermind man not even looking, nevermind the same shit you critcize vince's dunk happening here...

John Lucas is 5'9. The dude Vince jumped over was 7'2.



Not to mention lucas was ducking, making him even shorter

Fk this dunk. He carried to blow by them :oldlol:

Hate that it was on Ewing, MJ probably has an amazing top 5 dunks on Ewing collection :coleman:

Like Kobe has on Duncan.

[GIF REACTION]

Come on guys. Kings take this one.

He takes off from VERY deep, flies over a defender, and does a 360

[Fallen Angel]

The Vince Carter dunk in the 2000 Olympics is the most memorable, hands down.

Not taking anything away from Pip. He pwnt Pat.

This is why I was a Ewing fan tho. He was tough...challenged anything and everything. Took one like this on the chin and he didn't give up or quit.


@OP yup I would be arguing for the sake of arguing :cheers:

Hell yeah. I got nothing but respect for real centers like Ewing and Mourning who got dunked on. At least they did what they were supposed to do--defend the basket. That's that Hoya defense.

I can't stand it when centers just put their hands up and try to draw a charge.

I'll take Vince still over that. It's just smoother.

I love Sheed as a dunker. He's so long, so athletic, and it's all power with his unmistakable style. Certain guys you can see a generic silhouette and you know who it is. Sheed is one of them because of that flair with his legs. And for all the shit Sheed gets for drifting to the 3pt line, he would dunk everything near the rim. No ***** mentality.

imo, top 10 big dunker all time.


Always wondered about VC's celebration how he almost knocks out KG. Has anyone been punched from a celebration like that before?

[r15mohd]

Surprised there are no Kemp mentions...he has some pretty INCREDIBLE dunks, too.

Who is this?

[redrich2000]

The greatest dunk can't be one where the defender is trying to take a charge, it's gotta be the defender trying to block and getting creamed. Nor can it be one where the defender is arriving late, giving the dunker the advantage like the Jordan on Ewing dunk.

I love Amare's because when he get's the ball at the 3-point line both he and the defender know what's going to happen and get a run at it, but Amare just nails it.

[Rake2204]

Who is this?Rasheed Wallace.


from the youtube comments section:






can anyone validate this claim?Weis did not lose an NBA roster spot over that dunk. He was already an unpopular pick, selected 14th overall and he played unspectacularly for their summer league team before opting to stay in France for another year. The dunk was not related to that decision. By the next year, both sides seem to have just cooled on coming together; I believe Weis played well in France for a small bit. There was a recently published article on his battle with depression and subsequent suicide attempt that may be worth giving a look: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/15/sports/basketball/for-frederic-weis-knicks-99-draft-choice-boos-marked-start-of-a-greater-struggle.html?ref=sports

Has anyone been punched from a celebration like that before?To tie your post together quite nicely, there has been another situation where a player was almost knocked out like VC did KG in 2000. Rasheed Wallace came this close to killing Gordan Giricek in 2004: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T73n8WsD2R0

this dunk is infinitely more impressive than vinces


that isnt even vinces best dunk considering he vaulted himself with his off arm ala nate robinson.


nothing will ever touch jerome lanes dunk cause he throws it dunk without any resistance

its as if its a playschool net

But even then you could argue that Amare got a running start while the defender just jumped up from a stand still.

[Papaya Petee]

Not the greatest dunks ever, but Wades dunks on Varajao and Perkins were just insane.

This and Blake over Mozgov are some of the most memorable dunks in recent years.
