    Vince Carter: "Confidence. Being able to believe that you can do the dunks that you think of, you come up with, that you see, whatever. There are a lot of people that can jump. Just jump and dunk a ball, but don't really have creativity. That doesn't mean you're considered a great dunker. "</div>

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">IS: How much of the creativity is planned ahead of time, compared to spur of the moment?

    Vince: "I'd have to say it depends on the person. Some people can say, 'Okay, this is the dunk I'm going to do,' and they go and finish it off. Me personally, I don't work that way. If I start off one way, I'll never finish that way. It's just the way it goes. Especially when you get up there and you feel that you can do something else or you don't feel you can do it, then it all changes in motion, in rhythm."</div>

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">IS: Where's your dunk trophy now?

    Vince: "It's sitting in my mom's house in the living room, in the corner by the good furniture."</div>

    IS: You can still get up, but...

    Vince: "I can't dunk like I used to."</div>

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">IS: Looking back, what did winning that dunk crown mean to you?

    Vince: "That was the best feeling of my life. My goal was to compete in the dunk contest and hopefully win it. That's all I wanted to do, though. I didn't want to make a career out of being in the dunk contest."</div>
