I'm guilty of hating on Vince Carter. A lot of it, he's earned, but ... in the process, I've also sort of undervalued Carter in my own mind, because it dawned on me somewhere in those seven minutes that I should've been enjoying Vince Carter's career a little more. This video compiles his 100 best dunks.
Say what you want about the value of the dunk, and its relevance to being a good basketball player ... that's still beautiful to watch. Vince Carter is sudden. He goes from zero to jackhammer in the blink of an eye, unleashing a deathblow to the rim with every throwdown.
I didn't think I'd be watching a seven-minute Vince Carter YouTube video today, let alone enjoying one immensely. But that fellow was born to dunk ... and the guy who edited this together is an outstanding YouTube video putter-togetherer-er. My compliments.

Dude is nuts. Seriously.
As a 6-5 ex-hooper who can dunk easily, what he makes look easy is ridiculous. He does dunks in NBA games that no mortal should be able to do. Windmills from the baseline around opposing centers? Are you serious?
He has the combination of freakishly long limbs/large hands, a crazy vert, superquick explosiveness, and an utter fearlessness that nobody's seen before in the NBA and probably won't see again.
Hands down the best dunker. In games, dunk contests, on 5 foot Hasbro hoops, whatever.
His HOF statue should be his man parts in Frederic Weis' face.
I'm under 6 foot and can't dunk- is it ok for me to still be impressed?
Seriously, the force with which he dunks is second to none. The velocity of the ball from rim to floor is unbelievable.
Great video. MaxaMillion edits like Stevie Jackson tips strippers - which is to say well and often. Here's more Vince, this time talking about dunking:

Watch the bench reactions to his dunks....especially the N Carolina bench...they seem to jump with him and go Ape Sh*t as they land....I bet the reserves on those squads will be regaling friends for years to come....
Watch the bench reactions to his dunks (especailly the N Carolina bench) They rise in anticipation, jump when Vince jumps, land and go Ape Sh*t!!!
Those fortunate few will be regaling cats for years w/ VC stories!
