You are wrong. Vince Carter's broken ankle was done purposely by Bruce Bowen. Bruce Bowen broke like 7 players' ankles, that is why I lost respect for Spurs and their head coach
+AlkaShroom I still respect Spurs and Popovich. If You look at career of them, you can't not respect Tim Duncan, David Robinson, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili. Greg still deserves respect. Bowen was brutal player and he would do that regardless of instructions.
@@jaseallenson316 not with that power and position when throwin that ball through the hoop. Vince be dunking full extension, with power, and reaching in front when finishing. Not reaching up and barely making it. Zion in his Duke days had that capability. He kinda lost it a little but still got that power.
You will notice that dunkers started to overwhelmingly do things like wearing costumes after this like Dwight Howard and his superman costume. It's because Vince Carter destroyed the dunk contest in 2000. They cannot beat this, so they had to find other ways to entertain the crowd.
Marv Albert actually does say "... with his first STUFF". He didn't cut it off, he just said it loudly at the exact same time of the sound of ball exploding through the rim/net, making the entire sequence pretty awesome.
+Swaganzo Shimura yes it was hella hood everything was that was back then big clothes big chains big nuts big everythang lol now with theses new school guys its all smiles and handshakes
He did in fact rotate roughly 360 degrees in the air. He dunked at 180. But for argumentative purpose, say he dunked at 180 but continued to rotate a full 900 degrees. It would be a little misleading in that case to call it merely a 180 dunk. It's just not so technical of a definition when it comes to these things. I still call it a 360 windmill. It just depends how you define it. I'm not sure there's a rule book on this.
To me, Vince will always be gold standard for this simple reason: Pro athletes can do things regular people can only dream of doing, Vince was doing stuff pro athletes could only dream of doing.
I say that to myself every time I see him. Vince doesn’t need to have a championship to make an everlasting claim to being one of the best athletes in basketball. This video will be watched well into the future and those in the future will be equally amazed... 1/2 man 1/2 amazing. He will always be my favourite basketball player.
If Vince would've played for a more popular team and won rings, everybody would call him the better jordan. Not only is his dunking great, he can shoot, dribble, defend, pass, rebound ... all of it.
FIRST elbow dunk ever performed by ANYBODY!! FIRST 360 windmill!! FiRST dude to catch the ball mid-air and go between his legs to dunk!! The BEST dunker both contest and in game that has ever walked this planet!! Vince Carter!! 👏💐
@Pbajj Hey, you're right. I just saw Kobe's elbow dunk in 97. Vince got up higher with his and was more dramatic! You're right, though. I thought Vince was the first to do it.
+Jan Clausell nope, that sitting dunk is great, but not great enough to beat reverse 360 windmill. Gordon's dunks can be done by professional dunkers, but how about VC ? ain't nobody touch that shit even today!
I love the stunned silence from the entire arena. No crazy celebrations, because no one could believe what they just saw. I bet almost everyone who saw that the first time literally made no noise for a few seconds, lol.
+Emmanuel Abijo. Vince can do more things in the air, and his dunks are a bit more powerful, but MJ is the most finesse, artistic, hang time dunker of all time. They are both equally good in terms of in-game dunks (even though their dunks are very different) and slam Dunk competition (even though MJ did 3 of them). No doubt they are the two greatest dunkers of all time. Also wanna give a shout out to Dominique and Julius Erving.
The reaction to the elbow dunk was kinda like...that was a thinker. No one quite realized what they saw but that ended up being a signature dunk for him. None like him!
Yeah i didn't understand how they tried to scoff at it, I thought it was epic, especially in the slo mo replay. All that was missing was some CGI fire comung out of his fist as it enters the net
I genuinely believe it was just shock. Dudes couldn't comprehend that he actually just pit his whole forearm in the rim. They just couldn't process it. Even Kenny was like "wait a minute." Couldn't believe that our eyes were seeing the right thing.
The audience wasn't prepared for that honeydip dunk. That was my interpretation in their faces especially Jason Kidd's reaction 😂 Man, VC paved the way, resurrecting the dunk contest dying in the mid to late 90's
when you remember vince was drafted by the warriors had his 2000 dunk contest in oracle and now if he wants a ring he would have to sign there to end his career with them after he got traded like so many greats from that franchise from robert parish to gibert arenas to antwan jamison to chris webber chris mullin owens to hardaway to richmond to ellis..how many great warriors were drafted or signed or traded away?...about 20 of them ..they had a horrible 35 years
Reverse 360 windmill. Greatest dunk of all time. It's not just the dunk itself but the execution, the power, the grace, the style. How he starts screaming as he's in midair. SO SICK!!!
That arm in the rim dunk was shocking. I remember just trying to process it when I saw it live. Same with the crowd. They were just stunned. Nobody has seen anything like it. Still the best dunk contest in the history of the game.
I remember watching it when it happened, and everyone was just stunned into silence. I also remember trying to process what I had just seen. It was truely shocking.
He murders the rim. That’s what the windmill dunk was created for. I can feel my own anxiety leave just watching him unleash every ounce of anger on that rim.
Molun its cause his arms are so long plus he jumps so fucking high for no reason.... head at rim off two feet.... that means his arms are completely over the rim... all u need is to get your wrist over rim to dunk... he gets his armpit near the rim... andhis arms are over 2 feet long plus he is 6'7 perfect tall but not to tall tomake dunks look too easy and still has speed ans flexibility
The reaction to Carter's elbow dunk is almost as iconic to the dunk itself. The whole audience was silent because they just couldn't understand what happened. They SAW it but it just didn't seem real. I can't recall a similar reaction to another dunk before and after it.
Thank for the amazing years Vince. From those amazing dunks and those flashes of greatness shown even at 43. To the last player drafted in 90’s have a great time in retirement half man half amazing, thanks for decades of great memories man.
The 360 windmill is still the most beautiful dunk I've seen. It's not just the elevation or difficulty, it's his perfect motion. Vince Carter dunked with style. The most impressive dunk would be the one Carter did over a center of the opponent team during an actual game.
That 360 reverse windmill.."OMG"..how in the world can you beat that dunk!!..I'm sitting here 21 years later and it still gives me goosebumps..and I replay it several times..my jaw drops everytime💪😛👍
Kenny robbed him of a perfect round with his “any other time this would be a 10” bs logic. Punish him for throwing down the greatest dunk in dunk contest history...

Then why don't you make it/yours better than..? Quit your job if u have to, dump your spouse if necessary, raise your children the way you wanted to.. Dan Pena said 87 percent of ppl on earth are not happy at there jobs.. beginning to believe that
When he dunked his whole arm, and the whole stadium dropped their jaw. Ive never seen a moment like that where it was quiet cause it took people like 20 seconds to realize what just happened.
As a Warriors Fan, I feel proud that Oracle Arena (back when it was The Arena in Oakland) got to host this legendary performance. Easily some of the best dunks in Dunk Contest History!!!
everybody commenting about how they remember this dunk or that dunk, you have *no* idea what this meant for Toronto at the time. Raps were only in their 5th season and struggling for an identity - this put Toronto on the NBA map.
bet that female judge was glad to get away from his creepy ass for a second..he was probably trying to get her number until this distracted him the deiviant he is
I remember watching this live back in 2000. When he threw down the first dunk, it felt like a bolt of electricity went threw my body. I was 19 and watching with a group of friends. I don't think we've ever been more hyped over anything. Half man, half amazing!
All his dunks will never get old. This literally was the best dunk contest I’ve ever seen. I literally screamed and jumped off my couch every dunk. This was the height of the slam dunk contest. After this, it all went down hill
I still remember watching this live when he put his elbow in the rim. Nobody knew how to react because it was getting ridiculous. You didn’t even understand what you were seeing.
7.9 million views !!! HOLY SHIT! 😱😱😱😱😱
Thank you so much guys!!!!! 🙏🏽❤️
When was the last time you came back to this video? Sounds like it's been a long time
deff true.. didn't knew that this video had so much views lmao ! @@calvin9187
Many people don't realize how close TMac was to beating Vince that day. If TMac had made his final dunk...Vince takes 2nd.
Of course, this is the old nba we grew up with and want to have back
BRO!! You have REAL footage of THE GREATEST DUNKER EVER!! Thank you for that!! I'll keep comin' back

That first dunk is still the most perfect dunk I’ve ever witnessed
Absolutely VINSANITY!!! Pure power, creativity, and dunking it eye level with the rim. Hard to believe this was 23 f@cking yrs ago😳😳😳
That’s the thing he fully extends an launches so perfectly on his dunks that’s what make it look so good because it’s perfectly done
All the way down to how the ball went thru the hoop. Beautiful dunk
EVERRRRRRRRR
It was at that moment when everyone else was going for second place.
21 MF years later that first dunk STILL sends chills watching it
I swear.
Yeah at the time it was crazy. Nowadays, many high school kids can do all those dunks
@@jaseallenson316 not with that power and position when throwin that ball through the hoop. Vince be dunking full extension, with power, and reaching in front when finishing.

Coming here to get back those thrilling feelings after this year’s dunk contest.
😭😭😭😭the same
💯
Skills challenge was the best yesterday wack AF unbelievable
Yeah for real
Seriously, just compare Shaq's reactions here to his reactions this year
That first dunk still gives goosebumps 22 years later
Everyone watched it and went nuts with that dunk. Explosive dunk by Vince.
There's something in his 360 windmill dunk that can't be copied. It's hard to say what but it something like grace and form/fluidity.
misternoobie even they way they filmed it was amazing
Agreed. It will never be done like that. Smooth and powerful
misternoobie 360? That was 180.
That's what they call it. Even the NBA.
He did in fact rotate roughly 360 degrees in the air. He dunked at 180. But for argumentative purpose, say he dunked at 180 but continued to rotate a full 900 degrees. It would be a little misleading in that case to call it merely a 180 dunk. It's just not so technical of a definition when it comes to these things. I still call it a 360 windmill.

“I done put my whole arm in the rim Vince Carter”
Randomzen yessss siiiiiirrrrrr
my favorite ever for pure shock value. no one can believe what they just saw.
Err errr
LaaaAAzy
major pause moment
Every year when the dunk contest disappoints, I come back and watch this.
same
Like tonight lol smh
Welcome back lol
And with the lame of 2024, it is good to see some real sport

You put it perfectly
What's crazy is Vince is the only guy in the arena that's still playing in the NBA
Kevin Garnett is there too
+Dylan Anderson I forgot about KG. I think he's gonna hang it up before next year tho.
+kingjason354 Most likely. I think he should. He's proven himself more than enough
+AJ MY Yeah, more than likely, bro
Not anymore :(
What’s crazy is, if he did these dunks at the slam dunk contest now, he would still win. His form and power is unbelievable.
I think both Gordon and Lavine in 2015 had him beat, this was just crazy it was all stuff that hadn’t really been seen before
Adam V that was 2016, 2015 was with oladipo
Jimmy Butler fair enough
Adam V no way
Hell no most of these dunks he did would score 45s in the contest except for the 360 windmill
FIRST elbow dunk ever performed by ANYBODY!! FIRST 360 windmill!! FiRST dude to catch the ball mid-air and go between his legs to dunk!! The BEST dunker both contest and in game that has ever walked this planet!! Vince Carter!! 👏💐
DEFINITELY AGREE!!!
It's called a honey dip(elbow dunk)
Kobe did the elbow dunk in 97.. look up Kobe vs Tmac dunk contest here on CZcams.
@Pbajj Hey, you're right. I just saw Kobe's elbow dunk in 97. Vince got up higher with his and was more dramatic! You're right, though. I thought Vince was the first to do it.
Kenny Skywalker may be the first 360 windmill ‘89 dunk contest
Vince is so much smoother - best ever
His first dunk will never be matched ever
🧢
0:26 (360 windmill)
2:14 (180 windmill baseline)
4:08 (2 feet Eastbay off bounce)
6:43 ("Honeydip")
9:16 (2 hands from inside FT line)
Than
Well done, sir.
Thanks
first was reverse 360 if you wanna know, but thanks
Best dunk of nba history*
vince's first dunk is the best dunk of all time in my eyes
nope thats Aaron Gordon's "sitting dunk"
+Jan Clausell nope, that sitting dunk is great, but not great enough to beat reverse 360 windmill. Gordon's dunks can be done by professional dunkers, but how about VC ? ain't nobody touch that shit even today!

Watching this after the 2022 contest is like washing out your mouth after drinking something nasty
😂😂😂 Exactly!!! That was Garbage!
It's called an eyebleach, i did the same and watch the 2016 instead. LoL
I like how everyone including the crowd just got silent when Vince did the elbow dunk, just can't process that awesomeness lol
That to me was the best dunk reaction of all of them! Lol.
VC was so ahead of time, the audience still can't process that honeydip dunk. Crowd wasn't prepared.
They were stunned lmao
That is the only time I think ever the crowd had to process that a dunk like just happened lol
Right either they were laughing like the commentators or they had a confused look like Steve Francis and Shaq the look by Steve says it all
Even if other players can do his dunks. NONE can ever do it with as much FINESSE!!
exactly, that's why he is goat dunker
also, that list of other players who can do the all the dunks he did is a hell of a short list.
+Emmanuel Abijo - maybe less in finesse but more on execution and power
+Emmanuel Abijo. Vince can do more things in the air, and his dunks are a bit more powerful, but MJ is the most finesse, artistic, hang time dunker of all time.

I also remember trying to process what I had just seen. It was truely shocking.
Kobe did it first
the first dunk is perfection, how clean he threw it down and his bounce and scream when he landed added to the perfection
I love how everyone in the stadium was in shock when Vince did that "elbow dunk". It took them a moment to realize what just happened. Damn Vince...

I remember watching this live.. we were indeed confused until the replay.
definitely the best moment-- everyone just slack-jawed. amazing.
His delivery is unmatched. Something makes his dunks so clean through the net.
It's definitely the assertiveness of that cock back he does before the dunk
Something to do with those big hands

Then why don't you make it/yours better than..? Quit your job if u have to, dump your spouse if necessary, raise your children the way you wanted to.. Dan Pena said 87 percent of ppl on earth are not happy at there jobs.. beginning to believe that
KG's reaction are priceless.
I'd actually be interested in seeing what Shaq and KG's turn-of-the-millennium camcorder footage looks like 😂
🤣🤣True!
I was thinking the same thing.😂
I came back in this video every after all star slam dunk contest. Congratulations to Mac McClung for saving the dunk contest this year.
Best dunker ever and Its not up for debate!!!
20 years later and this still is the greatest dunk contest.
The 2016 dunk contest was better
@@ajayyxonot really. If Aaron won then yes
@@SoggySlopster That doesn't change anything. In terms of quality 2016 was better. This one was a 1 man show
not even close lol
2016 is the greatest dunk contest of all-time
Michael Keaton’s reaction to his fourth dunk 😂
It’s incredible that he doesn’t have a ring. It’s almost heartbreaking.
The power, full extension, with his head level with the rim of that reverse 360 and the outbounds windmill is just ridiculous. 🤣😂🤣😂🤦🏽♂️
The power of his dunks is unmatched.
When he dunked his whole arm, and the whole stadium dropped their jaw. Ive never seen a moment like that where it was quiet cause it took people like 20 seconds to realize what just happened.
Vince Carter = Goat Of Dunks
No debate
As a Warriors Fan, I feel proud that Oracle Arena (back when it was The Arena in Oakland) got to host this legendary performance. Easily some of the best dunks in Dunk Contest History!!!
Still can't believe the Warriors traded this guy for Antawn Jamison!! Traded Penny for 1 yr of C webb!! Drafted Bumleavy Jr!!!
everybody commenting about how they remember this dunk or that dunk, you have *no* idea what this meant for Toronto at the time. Raps were only in their 5th season and struggling for an identity - this put Toronto on the NBA map.
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 raps all dayy!!!
And they shunned him!! Disgrace
He was the hero of every 90's kod born in tdot
Best jerseys in NBA history with the raptor on it
Who's watching this after Hamidou Diallo's vince carter arm in the rim???
that push to get up dunk?
Me
Me
Preachhhh
Me
Watching this, live, was an unbelievable pleasure.
KGs reaction is priceless, gets me every time
shaq's reaction will always be funny
+Victoria Mosse and Chris Webber
Isaiah Thomas hopping over table to give Carter props priceless! 😂
bet that female judge was glad to get away from his creepy ass for a second..he was probably trying to get her number until this distracted him the deiviant he is
He’s so powerful and so smooth.
even batman had his mouth open in shock
whenever i feel sad or glum i come here
Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days...
Portgas D. Ace that's a song
Well, Vince Carter after all these years is STILL playing in the NBA at 41.
Portgas D. Ace yea i know right
When our momma sang us to sleep
Portgas D. Ace back when you didn’t have a magma fist in your chest?
I remember watching this live back in 2000. When he threw down the first dunk, it felt like a bolt of electricity went threw my body. I was 19 and watching with a group of friends. I don't think we've ever been more hyped over anything. Half man, half amazing!
Micheal Keaton’s face gets me everytime
the great thing about Vince was hes greatest dunks were on players... in game.
For real
he is not just a dunker. he is more of a player.
Yeah not just a dunk contest dunker but the in-game shit he was producing was off the charts lol
Kevin Garnett reaction is everything
No. Try Shaq
He saw the future.
Garnett webber and shaq
Here after that horrendous 2022 dunk contest
The arm dunk broke peoples brains 😂. Just jaws completely dropped.
No disrespect to Jordan or Wilkins or any other winners but vince is the king of slam dunk
Vince is just a special dunker
He's legendary bro
The 2022 contest brought me here
2022 boring contest brought me here.... Again and again
the early 2000 was one of the best time for the NBA , you have a huge amont of new raising talents and also some great old ones
jeffrey dahmere tru
Jason Richardson was something else too man 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
All his dunks will never get old. This literally was the best dunk contest I’ve ever seen. I literally screamed and jumped off my couch every dunk. This was the height of the slam dunk contest. After this, it all went down hill
The lavine gordon contest was miles above this one. This just happened in an era that wowed everyone
@@Smegma824 good dunkers, but Vince is the GOAT
@@jorgeinostroza6675 nope. Gordon and Lavine were doing next, NEXT level shit that made Vince's dunks look like basic ass Dr. J dunks from the 70s.
Wtf are you talking about after all those years
Until 2016..give credit
I still remember watching this live when he put his elbow in the rim. Nobody knew how to react because it was getting ridiculous. You didn’t even understand what you were seeing.
