A little bit a trivia: the guy Carter dunk on, Frederic Weis, was drafted by the New York Knicks. Ed Tapscott, the guy that drafted him thought he was going to be Patrick Ewing's replacement. Weis never played a single second in the NBA.

Vince Carter definitely deserves a statue at the Air Canada centre. VC inspired a generation of young Canadian basketball players. Without Carter, there is no Andrew Wiggins, Alexander-Walker, Gilegious-Alexander, Kelly Olynyk, Cory Joseph, Trey Lyles, Tristan Thompson, Dwight Powell, Dillon Brooks, and Anthony Bennett. All of these players are in their 20s and (except for Trey Lyles) grew up in Toronto, the Toronto metro area, or a city in Ontario. The "Vince Carter Effect" on these players and others who I cannot remember is immeasurable.

The only other three Canadian basketball players I can think of that played before VC arrived to Toronto: Rick Fox Jamaal Magloire Steve Nash. Fox and Magloire are from Toronto. Steve Nash is Vancouver or Victoria...he is West Coast.

At halftime they both agreed that Zo wasn't gonna take getting yammed on again without bodying 'em, so they had to be ready for that. And that's exactly what VC did with that left arm, before cocking it back and smashing it down. It's as filthy a dunk as I've ever seen...so bad that Zo (who was good friends with Vince until then) didn't speak to him for seven years lol. Neither would I tbf...
