Vince Carter 'officially done' after 22 years in NBA

 
Arguably might have been the greatest dunker ever in his early years. His dunk in the 2000 Olympics against France where he cleared a guy that was 7'2 has to be the most impressive in-game dunk ever.
 
Doug Gottleib had him as the top dunker of "star" players. Hard to argue with that. I give Carter alot of credit. Alot of players, especially NBA players have a difficult time accepting lesser roles as they decline. Case in point, Allen Iverson. He simply could come off the bench, and he wasn't a starting player anymore. I think he needed the money, but his ego would not allow him to be a bench player. Carter graciously moved to the bench and even in the last few years, he was only playing 10 minutes a game.
