Vince Carter does a between the legs dunk at AGE 40
- Thread starter JordanWearinThe45
- Start date
The Nets.
Where?
Has Vince ever gone to a team and they actually improved?
That video is super overproduced, but the fact remains. Vince in his prime/late prime when he first arrived to the nets was no joke. He is a hall of famer breh. The Nets were basically dead in the water and as soon as he got there the Nets took off to make the playoffs that very first year.

So effortless at 40. Those old legs still kickin' damn.
Before Vince got there they were in the Finals and ECF. Before he got to Orlando they were in the Finals. Not saying Vince made them worse but that's facts.

Duck Season
The Nets were on fumes at that point and were 13-24 that very season. They needed a trade to keep them relevant or they were on their way to a 50 loss season breh.
Let's not get crazy, the nets were on their way down without Vince.

I don't want niccas thinking I'm comparing myself to any NBA player, let alone Vince, but check it out...
When you get older and stay in reasonable shape it's not that you lose your athleticism as much as it's your ability to recover. I'm 6'2 and I can still bang at 36, but if I run full court for 3-4 hours on Saturday my legs will be done if I tried to ball on Sunday or Monday. When I was a kid and in my 20's I could ball every single day and my legs always felt good. When you get in your 30's you start having a few days where you feel bouncy and a lot of days where you have nothing.
That's just the reality of getting old brehs.

This is where the minutes vs age conversation comes into play for me.
Lebron has played 8000 more mintues during his career than Vince so far. That's why MJ coming back at 38 wasn't really that bad for him. He hadn't really played that much at his age vs a Kobe/KG/Bron at the same age.
Vince's health is probably amazing for a 40 year old athlete.

1. MJ COMING BACK WAS BAD FOR HIM...
THAT BREAK AT THAT AGE IS THE WORST.
ITS BEST TO CONTINUE PLAYING
AND STAY IN TIP TOP SHAPE.
YOU LOSE YOUR ATHLETICISM WHEN YOU STOP COMPETING AT THAT AGE.
THATS THE BIGGEST REASON KOBE FELL OFF.
IT WASNT THE INJURIES...
IT WAS ALL THE TIME HE MISSED DUE TO THE INJURIES.
