Are we hanging on to these dunk legends for too long? Dr. J., MJ, DWilkins?

if it weren't for Dr. J, MJ and Dominique, do you think vince, dwight and gay would be dunking the way they are dunking right now? the dunk legends set the standards that the younger guys right now have to meet, because if they hadn't, can you imagine what kind of dunks we'll be seeing right now. these legends inspired the your generation to be creative when dunking. they deserved to be given the credit.
