Stackhouse, who came out in fifth, couldn't dunk, and then Ricky Davis, who came out in sixth, also couldn't dunk under pressure. After two rounds, Carter, Maddie and Francis are all secure in the second round.

The third buckle of the first round:

However, at this time, Maddie did not save her strength, but chose a difficult air connection to fold the buckle, and Duncan on the side was full of surprise. Maddie scored a perfect 50 points for this dunk. Francis missed a dunk in the second appearance and Carter appeared in the third, and he, like Maddy, did not hold back despite entering the early finals. Carter cooperated with Maddie and used a crotch change hand dunk, which shocked the audience again. Pistons legend Isaiah Thomas jumped over the table and knelt down in favor of Carter. And it was this move that shocked everyone present, Carter said in an interview on the spot: "I know everyone has seen this move for the first time, because it is also the first time in my life that I have done this action, which I just sat on the bench and thought of it temporarily. ”

Carter's move scored 50 points without any suspense, and in the end, Carter, Maddie and Francis joined hands to enter the second round.

Round 2 1st Deduction:

In the first dunk of the finals, Francis completed a windmill dunk, perhaps because the previous dunk was too exciting, and Francis only scored 43 points on this dunk.

Maddy's first dunk was a problem with passing, and he scored only 45 points.

Carter came out in the third place, only to see him deliberately go up to look at the basket before dunking, and then wipe his right arm, everyone didn't know what he was going to do. As a result, Carter directly ran and dunked and inserted his arm into the basket, and everyone on the scene was stunned. Carter scored another perfect 50 points, and it seemed that the suspense of the outcome had been lost.

Round 2 Deduction 2:

Francis was the first to play, and he scored a high 48 points with a self-throwing folded back dunk after failing on the first attempt.

Maddy came out on the second floor, but he missed both attempts and scored just 33 points. At this point, Carter only needs 42 points to win the championship, but he is clearly not satisfied with a low score of 42.

In the last dunk, Carter took a small step before the free throw line and dunked with both hands, and finally won the 2000 slam dunk contest with a total score of 98 points.

Since then, Carter has become the Michael Jordan of the dunk world, and the slam dunk contest for years to come has not been compared to that year. However, at the 2016 slam dunk contest, the showdown between LaVine and Gordon was somewhat reminiscent of Carter's miracles.

There are even many people who believe that LaVine's dunk surpasses Carter's, but a realistic comparison of these two dunks... There is still a big gap between LaVine and Carter!

If nothing else, there are at least five doubts:

First of all, the beauty of LaVine's dunk is enough, but the shock is still a little worse. How to embody the feeling of shock has to be shown through strength. LaVine was certainly not as strong as Carter, as could be seen from his thin build. The moment he finally dunked the ball into the basket, the combination of power and beauty was still a little bit worse.

Then there is the confrontation, if it weren't for Li Ming's tuning, then LaVine's confrontation is not strong until now, and his offense is more likely to choose to float on the outside to shoot, and there are very few times when he gets to the basket. Carter completely killed LaVine in this regard, and often carried the opponent to the basket to complete the dunk in actual combat. LaVine dunked very little in actual combat, not that he didn't want to dunk, but the physical confrontation was poor, and his body had been deformed, where was there a chance to dunk. Carter has abused all the inside lines, and judging from Mourning's ball, LaVine can't do it yet.

There are also dunk tricks, LaVine still has a lot of tricks in the slam dunk contest, and these actions under the backhand crotch are still done with ease, but when it comes to actual combat, it is completely gone. Even if there is an opportunity, it is a simple one-handed dunk, and it is rarely performed like a slam dunk contest. For Carter, the main game is the stage for his performance, and the dunk completed under the interference of the opponent is more fulfilling. Carter's big windmill, 360 has been used countless times in actual combat, and LaVine is obviously much worse, in the final analysis, his physical fitness is not strong enough.

and the number of dunks, for example, in the 2016 season, LaVine dunked 36 times throughout the season, and Carter, who is already 40 years old, dunked 10 times. When Carter was young, he would rush to the basket whenever he had the chance, and it was really easy to dunk a few times a game. The reason why Carter has so many wonderful dunks is not because of the more dunks, as the so-called "quantitative change will produce qualitative change", if you want to have more memorable dunks, the number must not be less.

The last thing to say is the impact ... Carter's "death shackle" shocked the world that year, and it was still in the case of underdeveloped network communications, which could make him famous in one fell swoop. Although LaVine was good enough in the slam dunk contest, he still didn't capture the hearts of all the fans, because they had already been captured by Carter. LaVine can indeed fly, but Carter can really dunk, and there is still a big difference between the two.

So if you want to surpass Carter, there is no problem, and after you train your body and gain weight, you can still have such a slam dunk performance, and it's not too late to surpass Carter.

However, there is nothing wrong with not being the first, the second, looking back at the 2016 slam dunk contest, in which LaVine and Gordon made two dunks before finally separating the winner, LaVine won the championship with a dunk under the crotch of one step inside the free throw line. Although Gordon failed to win the championship, he forced LaVine to his full strength.

And the so-called LaVine's full strength, that is, his sixth dunk! Crotch dunk at the free throw line! Think back to that ball. LaVine retreated to the middle circle distance, started a fast run-up, and jumped to the next step of the free throw line, which turned out to be a big windmill under the crotch of the free throw line! Many people have played dunks like head-to-head hand-changing windmills, but their heels are still jumping off the free-throw line? LaVine's move killed too many senior dunks in seconds, because Gordon didn't get a perfect score for the previous dunk, LaVine's dunk has won the championship, and the NB players who watched the game rushed into the court to hug and hit their chests to celebrate wildly! This slam dunk game has recorded LaVine in the history of NB.

This dunk directly announced the birth of the new slam dunk king!

Of course, these are just the tip of the iceberg of the slam dunk contest legends, and there are many more dunks to tell, such as Griffin!

Of course, realistically speaking, whether Griffin's slam dunk contest that year was full of gold is also a question of opinion!
