On today's podcast, Jim breaks down the 22-year Hall of Fame resume of recently retired NBA swingman Vince Carter.  Jim talks about the best dunk in Olympic basketball history (4:16), before providing an overly detailed retelling of the 2000 slam dunk competition (13:48). Next, Jim tells us where Vince Carter lands on his list of top dunkers of all-time (27:34) and breaks down just how impressive and improbable having a 22-year career in the NBA really is (31:49). Then,  Jim hits on Carter trading 50-point games with Allen Iverson in the 2001 NBA playoffs (39:28) and why Carter only making two All-NBA teams is pretty unimpressive considering the caliber of players that puts him in company with (42:54). Finally, Jim decides whether or not Vince Carter belongs in the Basketball Hall of Fame (47:35).
