Does no one realize how great a career Vince Carter had as a 3 point shooter?

Everyone knows about his dunking. But Vince had textbook form on his jumper. Great release, good follow thru and released it at the peak of his jump. His only slight flaw was the tendency to fade away while shooting.

I want him to get a ring SO BAD before he retires, but it's not meant to be. :mjcry:

Went to the Nets after two straight Finals appearances and they never went back. Went to Orlando the year after they went to the Finals. Went to Dallas the year after they won the title. He's like the guy you have on your roster if you DON'T wanna have a shot at a title. :mjcry:

Just be happy he did what he did for that team or they could've ended up like that other team from Canada :ufdup:

Thats a myth breh perpetuated by the media....Franchise wasnt going to sink or move because of VC it was owned by a billion dollar coropration...
It wasnt going anywhere...You shouldnt speak on things you know nothing about...

Ill appreciate the 3 good years he had here,the dunk contest,a couple of national TV games and a second round appearance but the way he did his departure wont be forgotten,did as much damage to the organization as good that he brought...

The Truth
He was more popular when he was a slasher dunker though.

I saw him trying to change his game to spot up 3pt shooter and was angry a lil about it. But I mean he's lasted this long trying to develop his 3pt shot more in his younger years.

But VC to the hole >>>

You had one of the most popular players on the planet that made your team must see TV every time they played a game. Vince was the reason the Raptors were setting attendance records and honestly the only reason anybody cared about the Raptors. Who knows what would've happened if you kept Jamison or drafted someone else.

Were setting attendance records NOW in 2016...He put the team on the map no doubt,people started checking for the raptors but the team wasnt in danger of moving regardless of VC or whoever else was here...This team wasnt going anywhere,so the notion that the team stayed put cuz of Vince and he indirectly contributed to this all star weekend is completel exaggerated BS :russ:

I appreciate what he did on the court but i dont have a nostalgic view of it a decade later....
