Every now and then I'll attend a Golden State Warriorsgame. Be that as it may... my NBAfandom is pretty much six feet under the NHL, NFL, or MLB. However you don't need to be an NBAfan to know that the 2015 NBA All-Star Weekend has arrived... which means another slam dunk competition.
Rest assured... I won't be watching it... but after strolling across a video on ESPN earlier today, I was reminded that this is the 15th Anniversary of the dunk contest that ended all other dunk contests.
In fact... it was fifteen years ago... to the day when Vince Carter set the bar so high it crushed the souls of all future NBA dunk contest participants.
If you don't believe me, see for yourself:
Insane, right? And for those who prefer dunks in actual game situations... then feast your eyes on epicOlympic Vinsanity:
Fifteen years later, I couldn't tell you whether or not if VC is still in the league. But one thing is for certain... he's the greatest dunker I've ever witnessed and it's not even close.
Who's got your vote?
Happy Thursday and sayonara!
