The 7'2" Frederic Weiss Olympic Dunk for 2 points. To this day, the greatest dunk I've ever seen...
Correct 100%
Vince is 1000% right
People are stuck in the past. Look at the dunks mj was doing. Guys who are losing dunk contests are doing the dunks mj did and losing. Guys nowadays are dunking 10x better than Mike in dunk contests. He didn’t even jump from the free throw like let’s stop this
No lies told. Idk why folks so shocked.
Wrong! Jordan & Dominique would destroy Vince in a dunk contest and beat him at playing basketball.....🏀🏀
360 AND WINDMILL 💪
@@Racoons4ChangeMJ would’ve been far more capable of doing other drinks if he came in the league in 99
There are two types of NBA fans: ones who think MJ would win over Vince Carter, and people who have actually watched Vince Carter
Facts. 💯
It's a toss up but I would pick Vince. However Jordan is shorter so he would look better. But..ahh man it's a toss up
@@thinkboi It's not a toss up bro
@@thinkboibe real.
@@thinkboi they're both 6'6
Nobody beatin' Vince in a dunk contest.
Amen.... 💯💯👍👍Vince on a Whole nother Level
............. Gordon and Lavine .................. fair shots
Lebron in his prime could've
@@CaneCorsoShowno.
@@CaneCorsoShowLeBron never went past the first round in any dunk contest. He was too scared to compete fully,cause he's too large and too stiff to be flexible in an NBA caliber dunk contest.
@@CaneCorsoShowThose two are sick,no doubt but Vince always had an extra gear even during a game, when it came to dunking. LaVine and Gordon are the best in the last 12 - 15 years but Vince is the dunker,himself. Wanna be convinced,that he's sicker than both of them? Watch the 2000 NBA All Star Game,dunk contest finals again. Also,watch him dunk on that French center at the Olympics in Sydney,in the year 2000.
This lady also got Jaylen Brown saying he would have had 5 rings by now. Sh*t she'd probably have me saying I can beat Steph in a shooting contest too 🤣
I mean aside from what others have said , Vince has a strong case to beat Michael in a dunk contest. People are just so biased for Michael. Vince has the argument of best dunker of all time so for him to say he could beat Michael in a dunk contest that’s something I could actually see him doing
That jaylen brown video was funny but Vince isn't lying here.
MJ is the goat. But VC is the greatest (in-game) dunker of all time.
But the greatest dunk contest was Zach Levine and Aaron Gordon (who was robbed 2wice).
A comedian should make a skit about this
@DTheDon305 me 2 as well and I'm an mj fan and he's my goat 🐐 but I'm a realist Mike won't the best at everything don't get me wrong I just think Vince was a more powerful and aggressive dunker than Mike, he just stood out wit his powerful dunks like those dunks was only his Vince carter's, I can even take it back to the jordan ,Wilkins dunk contest and I'll be the first to say as an mj fan Dominique was robbed of the dunk contest and I'm just being real . I love mj like I said that's my goat 🐐 but I can't just give him everything . Like he was the only one. Like I said mj is my number 1# but it's allot of players that I respect for their greatness. And with or without a ring 💍 their heart and what they brung to da game. That list will never stop ✋️.
Yes Vince, you would certainly win
Vince Carter is not lying. He would win plain and simple. MJ is the greatest player arguably of all time and is my GOAT, but Vince is the greatest dunker of all time.
Lol did you say arguably so you dont get attacked by Lebron fans?
@@1SolaceLebron fans can’t make an argument. He never even competed in the slam dunk contest
Jordan dunks were beautiful though, it would be tough to decide.
@yeon723 thank you... ppl act like MJ was chopped liver when it came to Dunking 😂😂😂
@@bennisford1712 no, he dunked beautifully because of his grace and hangtime but he was not very creative
Since Mike won his first championship; the only category that I've seen that he was considered dominant in that the majority of NBA fans now say someone likely eclipsed him in, is the greatest NBA dunker ever; to Vince Carter.
And that shows you how great of a dunker Vince was. I would take early 2000's Vince over anyone in a dunk contest. His power, creativity, and fluidity was like watching a gymnast dunking.
VINCE IS THE BEST DUNKER OF ALL TIME.. IF HE WAS BORN RIGHT NOW, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN EVEN BETTER AT IT BECAUSE OF THE CREATIVITY HE WOULD’VE GAINED WATCHING OTHER DUNKERS BEFORE HIM.. HE IS THE BEST EVER. THE POWER, THE BODY CONTROL, THE AUTHORITY, THE CREATIVITY, THE AGILITY, THE FEROCIOUSNESS..
So then the same could be said about Michael Jordan if we pulling someone out of their era into another for creativity of that era. Jordan did what ppl were doing then. If he was 20 now going into a dunk contest, he’d be able to do a large majority of the creative dunks . He didn’t lack jumping ability or coordination
@@WawaMarvel I don’t know if he would.. for me Dominique may have.. but not Jordan. Jordan is like LeBron in that sense.. he knows only 3 dunks..
@@thegoodthebadandtheugly579 no he is not
You’re delusional if you think Vince won’t beat MJ. Vince’s dunks were just next level
I'M A 💯💯💯 DELUSIONAL,,,I GOT MJ IN A DUNK CONTEST OVER VINCE!!!!!🏀🏀🏀💯💯💯
@@reallife0728stop it
Lol. If they will compete today, Mj best dunks is more impressive than vince.😂
You want me to bring examples? Mj freethrow dunk vs vince freethrow dunk. MJ reverse elbow dunk vs Vince elbow dunk.
Vince dunks is more simple in today era than MJ's. Best dunk vince did was the 360 windmill. I don't think it's enough to beat MJ iconic dunks. Those dunk looks easy because MJ made it look easy. But put Vince in MJ shoes hell even zack won't be able to those dunk😂.
Why? they don't have the huge hand that MJ has.
Now if were talking about Zion williamson that's the man that will beat them all i believe.
Think about it m. J. Would not bring that. Older stuff he have too dig very deep remember Vince is a two legged jumper and Michael can do both he can definitely fly longer and he can palm the ball better m.j. has a 50 inch vertical. I love them both...
Yes if we only going by then and now. But if we are taking Jordan out of his era and he’s in his 20s now , he’d be able to do just about every dunk guys are doing , and definitely every dunk Vince did.
Shawn Kemp vs Vince would have been a barn burner! Athleticism and creativity out the ass. 🏀🔥
Yeah, until he blew up to like 400 pounds lol
Shawn Kemp never had the creativity, he was a power dunker. The only "creative" dunk he knew was the windmill dunk.
@challenger516 bullshit..
He was one of the best in-game dunkers ever!
@@richardmccormick859 you need to learn how to read lol
I got MJ. Jordan’s hang time and hand size is unmatched. Vince got the creativity and also crazy hops. Either could win but I’m leaning Jordan.
You smoking mj would have loss you show me any mj dunk were better then vince
@@jamesjameswhattheladyssayl7657 dunks evolved with time. To say Jordan wouldn’t be able to beat Vince is very short sighted. Vince came with that creativity and did dunks no one had seen but when Jordan was in the dunk contest he was doing dunks unlike anyone had done them. He had a artistic and graceful way of moving his body. Every Jordan dunk looks like the perfect poster. At the end of the day like I said before it could go either way.
u tripping
Lol MJ hops is the greatest ever 48 vertical, vince had 44.
Good Morning!!! Gotta love Vince
For those that don’t know how capable and incredible MJ was at dunking, all you have to do is just watch him in the 1987 dunk contest in Seattle, and in 1988 in Chicago!
The have been many guys that can jump higher than MJ, or dunk harder than MJ, but NO ONE looked better in the air while dunking than he did, he would literarily pose in mid flight while dunking the ball!
Domingue Wilkins got jerked in 1988.
😂😂😂 He repeated dunks. Vince all day.
@@shotz_ina7893 very true he did repeat a lot of his dunks, but they were still impressive
Finally a legit MJ vs. argument. MJ's my dude but Vince took two steps and jumped over a 7 foot guy. Gotta pick VC.
Damn Taylor Rooks fwiiiiine
Vince Carter is the best dunker in the history of the NBA. However, MJ had the higher vertical. If MJ is competing against Carter that would force MJ to be more creative.
Lil chemistry in that room 😂
If Vince won Michael would say ok you win this and I’ll win that six times and will definitely take what Vince just said personal 😂😂😂
Mike might get 1 out of 10 against Vince
Both MJ and Vince had jumping ability. Vince did dunks that nobody had seen before and were electric. But he also built on what MJ did. It really would come down to what dunks they’d do.
Vince would probably dunk two hands from the free throw and make it this time and maybe the James white windmill with one hand.
MJ would probably do a 360 free throw jam with one hand flying sideways then pose then turn it around and finish it with authority. That would be a sight to see in REPLAY!
He was planning to do it in 1987 and 88. But never pulled it out. James Worthy is on record stating MJ did things in College that he had never seen in the pros. NEVER! man was electric and out of this world.
I think it would be very close and either of them could win. But this thing that VC would just dominate, is absurd!
MJ's competitive nature is something not to be trifled with. VC doesn't have that and I think that would be the difference.
Its never gonna happen, so that's that.
Man get yhe fuck out of here MJ couldn't even dunk better then Dominique Wilkins
That's as close as you get MJ say, "I'm not winning that"
I believe even MJ knows he ain’t winning a dunk contest against Vince carter, with all due respect, he is the NBA GOAT, but Vince Carter invented dunks we have never seen when he did them based on pure athleticism, he never used props like what we later started to see with dunk contestants. Every millennial downwards that watched them both in their prime knows this.
I mean he probably would but you know he had to cap a lil bit bc of Taylor Rooks
Nah Vince would beat MJ in Dunkin’ fa sho fa sho
Nothing he said was cap
@@ivica999 vince didnt exaggerate one bit. i wouldve been like jaylen and said im getting 5 rings too.
Now that MJ aint playing, folks can say what they want.
MJ not a better dunker than Vince
@@spenser6353thank you
Vince not playing as well, in the NBA, you have no point lol
Look up the Kobe interview where some hack interviewer asks Kobe who wins in a dunk contest that includes MJ, Vince, Kobe etc.. Kobe says it's Vince. Not much else to say..
he not wrong
the greatest dunker ive seen. love his mentality
Interesting how no one is saying Taylor has Vince talking crazy
No doubt he would. Vince and LaVine are the two best dunkers all time as far as dunk contest goes. Jason Richardson is crazy underrated and forgot of when it comes to this convo as well. I'd say Gerald Green too
Kaboom, great topic in the room!
VC was my favorite player during that era, but it became frustrating from 2007 on. It's like he had as much talent as Kobe, but it seemed like he didn't care as much though. Also he didn't play with a prime Shaq etc, so I get that situations can shape your legacy...
I will say whatever crap y'all want if I was staring at Taylor Rooks the whole time too
But what Vince say isn’t crap. He probably the greatest dunker of all time. The bias in this comment section is unbelievable. I get we love Michael but he isn’t beating Vince in a dunk contest
It’s not crap. Vince is the gold standard when it comes to dunking
Even MJ would be impressed with Vince dunks
Vince Carter is six foot six 215 pounds and had the 100 percent same muscle structure and build of Michael Jordan who is six foot six 215 pounds when they both played! Notice Vince And Mike both had large hands and both had fluid speed and athletic dunks with creativity! The truth is If Vince and Michael had a dunk contest Michael Jordan would win because he would then surprise everyone and bring out and perform dunks people are unaware Michael could do! Vince is a very great runner but Michael had dunks in his arsenal and bag of tricks the NBA never saw! Michael would win by an edge over Vince even though it would appear there styles look similar!
Vince encompasses all the greatest dunkers’ capabilities, he checks all the boxes.
Vince is a GOAT as a human being
Listen to his great mentality. I have never heard or seen a more humble or wise person. Vince is a GOAT ...& I never knew that before today.
Vince is 47 years old here and he could put on a pair of retro VC Shox right now and throw down the smoovest windmill in the league...
Vince, Dominique, Shawn Kemp probably produced some of the greatest dunk competition dunks that they also did in games ON defenders. Not many people can say they did the same
Wow ..
A serious conversation about the use of a time machine ...
I mean if Dominique Wilkins could beat MJ in a contest, then of COURSE Vince would.
But Dominique never did
He did the first time bro u tweaking lmaooooooooo ...Mike got more creative on him
@@spenser6353 he sure did
Spud Webb beat Wilkins in a contest, therefore Spud Webb is the GOAT.
Honestly I think Nique would beat vince
He has a handfull of dunks that are unbelievable yes. But MJ was dunking over everyone everywhere every game. Hard to beat the small feet, vert and hand size of MJ . Dunks have obviously evolved and I'd like to think MJ would be able to do much more creative dunks if he was in the present times. I'm going with MJ. They don't call him Air Jordan for nothing.
Jordan would evolve with the time
Vince would evolve too
Vince Carter 🏆🐐🎯🙏❤️
I absolutely love how humble Vince tells his Point of view. MJ never was the best dunker for sure, he had style but Vince is defenitely better. Would have been fun to watch because its Like Vince said: they both love the Challenge and it would bring out their A-game, no matter who will win... Vince is first class and among the legends!!!!
He’s not lying. The best dunker I’ve ever seen.
I’m taking Vince!
Vince was another level
Vince would absolutely win. But I doubt Vince would be as creative a dunker if Jordan, wilkins, and others didnt exist. Its like saying i bet a ferrari could beat a model T. Well no shit😂
My money would’ve been on Vince All day; that fool next level and that’s his thing
Vince would wash Jordan! Wouldn't even be close! Lets also not forget that Vince was an All Star starter and didnt want to give up his star role for the Wizards version of MJ and felt he was better. This is an expected mentality of his!
He is.. Jordan was a spectacular and graceful dunker. Carter was the Goat with this specific art tho. MJ’s grace and Nique’s ferocity..
Awesome!
Vince "Half Man,Half Amazing" Carter! The true king of dunking!
I’m not doubting that statement
Vince has the best windmills ever , best posters, best lobs, best breakaway dunks, bought back the dunk off, etc case closed peops, kobe said it him self
What are all these random bleacher report interviews?
T-Mac dunks were so smooth and athletic
Vince Carter is the Randy Moss of the NBA and MJ is Jerry Rice.
Kemp, Wilkins, Carter, Jordan, Webb
IT'S NOT EVEN A QUESTION, VINCE CARTER WINS.
I love Vince expressing his passion for dunking. He is the greatest dunker NBA dunker of all time. Now, we know a big reason why.
Vince, Jordan, Wilkins, Gordon and Lavine. In heaven it will happen
People will be on shortly saying Jordan would destroy him. Jordan should have lost to wilkins in 88!
Vince is winning hands down
Vince is winning against GOAT. But GOAT would welcome the challenge unlike the other guy.
Bron didn’t want the smoke with Vince
Dream dunk contest.....Vince , MJ, Levine,Zion, ',Nique, Kob, Gordon.....off the top of my head
Vince vs the air up there was always the only debate
Thats why its called all star weekend if they would go back to the days when all stars were in the dunk contest the contest will be a hit again but you have these new breed cats who are afraid to lose its not about losing its about the competition being pushed to the limit to bring out the best and each competitor The fans want to see the best players in the league who have the draw it only makes sense
Good Question.... but its a answer we'll never know... 💯
Vince Carter.......Zach Lavine.......Jason Richardson......who yall got? IYKYK
Vince is the best dunker of All Time . Period.
FACTS HE'S HALF MAN HALF AMAZING FOR A REASON 🎯
Dominique Wilkins would be a tougher opponent
This isn’t debatable. Half man Half amazing without a doubt
Vince ain't losing to anyone in his prime.
The man was meant to dunk a basketball like Mozart was meant to compose, Gretzky was meant to play hockey, Bolt was meant to run and Phelps was meant to swim.
NO DOUBT! Vince could just use his highlights and sit back and chill.
I got mj cause Vince would bring out Michael's best and Mike's best is crazy
Imagine The 2004 Dunk Contest Would Be Like If This Happened
Vince Carter
Kobe Bryant
Lebron James
Jason Richardson
Dwyane Wade
These players are so afraid of the media and LBJ. Dude did not have to mention LBJ. They're talking about a dunk contest. How is LBJ going to expose you if he sees weakness when he never participated in a dunk contest. Smh. It was so irrelevant to mention his name in this topic. 🤦🏾♂️
Unlikely my butt,, behave at least 10,000 automated nuclear whistles
Jordan might have a chance if he spent more time practicing and less time gambling.
All Jordan did was dunk from the free throw line..dudes do that in high school now..his other dunks were mid
Would Vince even beat Dominique? And last I checked, MJ would pull the free throw line dunk.
When it comes to dunking Vince will forever be untouchable in the minds of those who witness Vinsanity.
It won't even be close. MJ fans just swallow it.
MJ's right, the fans would be entertained. VC is right, he would take it!
Vince backed out of a dunk contest against Ronnie Fields at Nike Camp and never defended his title or accepted another invitation to the NBA contest when Jason Richardson was doing his thing.
Absolutely adore Vince and think he is the dunk GOAT, but even he was afraid to lose.
Vince is not a leader like Michael Jordan. Michael led his team to 6 victories. Vince, never knew how to lead a team to victory. And we wanna talk about dunks? Dunks were made while making 6 rings.
GOAT
Dunkers podium
1 : VInce

3 : Zach Lavine

Vince Mike Dominique. Top 3 ❤
@@JermaineNorfleetswitch mike and nique
Vince vs lebron , Kobe too easy . Against Jordan, He may think he’s winning but too hard to tell.It’s would most likely be pretty close, but so fun to watch those guys facing each other in a dunk off. Remember Jordan had hangtime, and a 48’ vertical. Vince had me conVinced he’s the best ever but when the stakes are that high I’d look for Jordan to do something unprecedented, but who knows?😂
In Game , in Traffic, ill take MJ and i love Vince he was amazing and i think he could beat MJ in a Dunk off.. But in game facials against much taller players (Legit shot blockers) who sat and waited for him at the Rim.....MJ has that locked.
January 26 Vince
February 17 MJ
Biggest MJ fan here, I think Vince would win.
Kemp stoudemire most crushing....and Smits(effectiveness without body contact or foul). If bb is a no touch game...if not...Shaq
Vince would win easily!
MJ took this personal and has challenged VC to a dunk contest
i'd take Vince over anyone, all time.
Sean Kemp Dominque Venice would be great
ask him if he could really do a 720 and what dunks he would've done if he was in future contests
nonono, the dunking developed over the years. During the 80s and 90s, this was considered the best dunking. If they had the opportunity to train the dunks from 2000, they would have dunked them 100%. And Dominique with his strengths ... carter would have lost easily. .
Vince would win but there is no need to call people idiots if they feel MJ would win. It wouldn't be by a landslide. Personally I think given another chance Dominique would beat both.
Vince would win if they stick to the dunks we know them for but if they look up new dunks Mike will be able to do more than Vince cuz Vince can’t hold himself in air like Mike and the skywalkers could they just posed and dunked no moves but if they had the ideas it would be easier they was looking in the rim all the time in game situations on 3 mfs under the rim bigger than them and constantly not just 1 big play the whole game was a show not just waiting for a moment in the game
