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

Actually perform half-way decently in the Olympics when you're supposed to be the best team in the world.

That team won the gold medal though....

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


Nobody has even seen someone with as much hangtime to do that, so I don't think that we'll know unless we see it.

no dunk will top it..its not just the dunk itself.its the situation...first its the olympic,secondly...no one would ever thought he would do that..so he made a huge visual impact.thirdly its vince carter.i dont know if you notice it...but imo..whenever vince does a windmill..he does it more gracefully than other players.aka lebron 'just plain jamming the ball in' james.no dunk will beat it.
