What would it take to top Vince's Olympic Dunk?

Postby EGarrett on Wed Jan 11, 2006 8:28 am

Yeah, I feel like talking about Vince today.

Is it physically possible to get a better basketball highlight than Vince over Weis from the 2000 Olympics? What would you have to do?

Dunk on someone and shatter the backboard on their head?
Cross someone over and actually really break their ankle?
Try to jump over them but only get halfway, and end up dunking on them with your legs over his shoulders and your nuts literally resting on his chin?

What would it take?

Between-the-legs from the free throw line or a 360 from the free throw line. Those would be difficult to top.

James White did it but he did take off abit infront of the line.

i think his dunk on Alonzo Mourning earlier in the season was better since 'ZO isn't some 7ft pussy

The exact same dunk, but during an NBA game so they can relieve the burden of the whole Olympic legal issues of not allowing to show it.

Off the backboard, catching the ball after doing a flip, then jumping from the freethrow and then putting it behind both of your legs, behind the back and finish off with a 360 windmill.

you can't put it behind your legs, then behind your back without it looking real gay.

I'd say just add a off the backboard lob before! :)

I think doing the same dunk without fouling the guy defending him would top it.

Behind the back like JR Smith, but add a 360 to taht, so its like a 360 behind-the-back.
