Vince Carter appreciation thread

[feelosofer]

He was one of the poster boys of 2000s basketball and to watch him become a savvy player in later years when a lot of his counterparts were out of the league is impressive, he will likely be in the Basketball HOF.

2nd Best in-game Dunker of all time

if he's 2nd than who's #1?

Outside of the dunking Carter was and still is a great playmaker

Like I said, some of the guys that played in the 00s were hella skilled. James Harden is a joke compared to prime Vince imo.

even knows VC is the best

He was being modest. And I specifically said "in-game"

Seriously. I don't think people realize how skilled some of the 00 future hall of famers were.

Kobe
Wade
Iverson
Carter
T-Mac
Allen

Who is James Harden better than if these guys are all in their prime?

over the hill Kobe and Piru still giving these guys the work imagine them in their prime against these guys

Great dunker and damn good player. But with his talent level Vince could have been so much more. He should have been vying for the title of next Jordan and should be looked at on the level of a Kobe with his talent level. He could get to the rack at will and could finish with ease in traffic. His jumper was above average too and teams had to respect it. But he didn't have that heart or killer instinct to be an all time great. But he will still get in the Hall because of the dunks and because his numbers in his prime are better then a lot of cats who are already in the Hall of Fame.
