Carter's right hand

I haven't seen this idea thrown around, that Vince Carter's right arm, all the way from his finger tips to his right shoulder, has taken too much stress in his Raptors' years. As a result, he doesn't play ball like a franchise player anymore. Instead he shuffles his feet up and down the court, barely making an effort. After all sticking his arm through the rim in a dunk can't be good for him. You don't see anyone else does it in the league.

That's the price he pays being the most prolific, most violent dunker in the long history of the NBA.

There have been many arguments on who should be crowned the best dunker of all time. Should it be Dr J? Wilkins? Jordan? Carter? Howard? People who argue otherwise have not really paid attention to Carter.


I'm hoping the ranking will settle once and for all like this:


1- Carter (because he simply is)
Listed height: 6' 6" (198 cm)
Style: with authority, he cuts through lanes and jumps over defenders.


2- Jordan (classic Jordan late 80s to early 90s + his success)
Real height: 6 ft 4.75 in (195 cm)
Style: with air, he glides though air and jumps over defenders.

3- open to discussion
