@ kenai

OT. i can hang without the ball. i do play alot of basketball but just around our area. (inter-barangay level type of player) i do have a friend who just stands 5'5" who can dunk a basketball in a 10 ft rim with his two hands. thanx to VC, we developed our leaping ability but thats just it. as they say height is might in basketball.

@ good$
im no carter fan,but to say the man's a whinner and halfhearted is just plain wrong..and as for him being more of a jumpshooter than an aerial acrobat,normal lang gyud na..if you have been watching bball intelligently(which i doubt) kasagaran gyud sa mga high fliers will tend to pull-up more j's than go for dunks when there getting older.case of point,MJ grabe na sad kaayo ang injuries iyang naagian,kung kabalo lang ka unsa kalisod pagbalik sa court after an operation. sure he's mot MJ in or outside the court but 1 thing is for certain,he can kick your butt if you played so stop posting nonsense comments about VC....

Nia gali na DAGHAN nga article nga ng sulti nga UNMOTIVATED si Carter!!!

Wa ka kita ug duwa sa Nets Kabantay ka sa iyang dinuwaan

Wa ka kita sa iyang 1st 2 season sa Nets unsay nausab Ikaw man cguro way tanaw2x ug NBA... Klaro anang Carter wa nay gana...

Nya ikaw duwa ni Carter kadaog ka Gamaya sad utok nimu oi! Bogo jud!

Mao na mka sapot ky ganahan kaau ko anang Carter saona! Karon nga wa na g tarong ug duwa, mka sapot na... Nabiyaan na gud na cya ni T-Mac ug Kobe nga mas maau pa gud na cya saona ky nka lapos pa 2nd round nga cya jud ang go-to-guy! Kung maninuod na cya, ka MAAU ra anang Carter! Since rookie season ana niya sa Toronto na idol jud dayon nako na cya THAT IS WHY IT IS SO FRUSTRATING!

Tanawa gud na iyang supporting cast: RJ averaging 24ppg, Josh Boone averaging double-doubles as of late, JKidd pag start sa season kapila nka 3ple-double, karon Devin Harris. Nia pa Nachbar averaging in double figures ug Marcus Williams off the bench, Sean Williams defensive stopper... Nganu d man cla kadaog Ky c Carter mag cgeg itsa iyang FG % naabot na ug 37% unya d lang gali kaabot ug 20pts!!! Mao na! Bsan mga analyst sa NBA bai nka bantay ana!!! Daghan cla nkabantay ana!

Damnit! Kung mka kita ka sa duwa sa Nets mabantayan jud nimo! So before ka mag bunganga cguradoha sad nga sweto ka sa kahimtang sa Nets!!! Until this year Vince Carter has been my idol, I have followed him since he was a rookie.... Never waivered my support pag binuang nya sa Toronto, even voted him as an all-star everyday!!! Not until this season when he finally SUCKED and I said "that's it!"

He has the athletisicm that could match anyone in the league, why the hell is he not attacking the rim!!!

The DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JORDAN AND CARTER IS THAT JORDAN IS SOOOOO DRIVEN AND COMPETITIVE AND WON'T ALLOW ANYONE TO SURPASS HIM. Aside from that Jordan HAS A CONSISTENT outside game unlike Carter who'se FG% has significantly dropped!!! Jordan has an outside shot but WOULD DRIVE TO THE RIM AND GET A 3 POINT PLAY if he can see an oppurtuniy and not shoot an unadvised 3 point shot from 25feet!


Vince Carter is UNMOTIVATED this season and IT SHOWS!!! NO LONGER AN ALL-STAR, NO LONGER IN THE PLAYOFFS!!!

No NBA analyst would be stupid enough to write about that if it wasn't SO DAMN OBVIOUS!!! sa ESPN na originally g kuha!!! ESPN!!! By respected analyst Kenny Smith! The topic being followe by Adrian Wojnarowski, Yahoo! Sports

Khbaw ka ngano whiner Back then when he was 26 and his last season in Toronto, he WHINED when Antonio Davis was traded with Charles Oakley and used that as an excuse to let the Raptors fans donw... He was 26 back then!!! Fresh from givin Iverson a run for his money!!! LeBron didn't whine when he didn't get a supporting cast, nor did KG before he was traded! LBJ bought the Cavs to the finals instead!

Before this season, Carter whined for a fatter contract and opted out and Rod Thorn obliged. JKidd sacrificed a lower pay for Carter to get his fat contract and look at how he is playing!!! NO WONDER Kidd left the Nets!!!


Unsa na iyang injury microfracture ky CAREER THREATENING ACL iya injury bitaw serious na cya... BUT HE HAS SINCE RECOVERED which was pretty obvious in his past 2 season with the Nets!!! NO SERIOUS INJURY SINCE THEN! 1st season sa Nets? Averaging 26ppg 5rpg 6apg!

Amare gali gkan microfracture average man gali 28ppg 12rpg sukad naabot si Shaq...

Before ka mag hilas2x dha sabta sa mga post sa uban Mag buot manka unsay opinion uban mu post kung mao ialng opinion!!!

AND GASUWAT SA COLUMN YAWYAWE dli ang ng comment sa forum! Hilas pud ka! It is not me who christened him "HALF-HEARTED" but the NBA analyst"S" who have noticed his play as of late!

[The Good$!!!]

As far as his teamates goes... Who would not discouraged when yor supposed "leader" is without fire... Know what, he has been averaging 38-41 minutes per game and still finished with less than 20points... The Nets expect him to mount their offense and to feed of his energy and momentum...

Jefferson is supposed to be his back up but it turns out RJ has been "the man" for the Nets this season...

Sad because an aging JKidd would have a higher chance to get a title with a softer Easter Conference...

03/27/2008 YesNetwork New Jersey Nets news

"INDIANAPOLIS -- Vince Carter can be perplexing and frustrating to anyone coaching him, playing with him or watching him. He can be the best player on the floor sometimes or show such indifference that you question whether he's in the building or not.
Lately, there is no questioning where Carter has been. His focus has been on trying to lead the Nets into the postseason for the seventh straight season and first time without Jason Kidd.

Carter is playing his best basketball of the season, and the timing couldn't be better.

The Nets need someone to play at an All-Star level, to carry them in must-win games. Carter has been that guy, as the Nets hoped he would and nearly expected he would after signing the $66 million contract that played a factor in Kidd wanting out.
"This is my time," Carter said, "and the time is now."

If Carter said that sooner or played like that more consistently, Kidd may not have asked to be traded. But that's revisionist history because so many things led to Kidd's desire to be relocated to Dallas: not getting an extension (some say, because of Carter opting out of his contract), the Nets' not remaining championship caliber, and not having a consistent secondary superstar.

But it would be ironic and karmic if the Mavericks didn't make the playoffs and the Nets did, and the players he didn't think were good enough to be his teammates at this stage of his career have a big say in that, starting with Carter. "
Nets didn't make the playoffs, Mavs did... Surprise!

Vince Carter will be the next NBA player to come out of the closet after John Amaechi ...

charing!!!

[The Good$!!!]

The big question is why the Nets are not in the playoffs this year when you got RJ is scoring big time 24ppg, Josh Boone playing great and getting double-doubles, Nachbar has been great with Marcus and Sean Williams off the bench... Krstic is back. JKidd was UNBELIEVABLE when the season started, getting triple-doubles like crazy at 34... Devin Harris has been averaging 17ppg since he arrived in the Nets! What more can Carter ask for A fatter contract? Got that! Vince has been healthy for 3 season now for chrissake! The least he can do is step-up when it mattered the most... Karon pa cya naninuod nga cgurado na cla d ka sud sa playoffs... Ngano man, dumot cya ni Kidd? Sour graping cya ky wa cya na all-star? From a former VC fan, Carter has always acted like this...

When things gets tough, VC fades... He is still 30 years old... He can still explode for 40 if he wants to. But why the hell do you pull up for off balance unadvised 3 pointers at 25 feet away in transition and off the screen when you got an open lane and when you have the athletic ability like VC does? FG% are down, 3pt FG are dismal


When you look at it, the Nets are pretty deep and talented especially in the softer Eastern Conference...

VC got a sprained ankle...Big deal! Dirk got a serious sprain but willed himself to come back for the Macs and win!

Part of me still believes in Carter... Chose my intramurals and liga jersey # 15 because I idolized him for so long... Even got a VC II, III shoes so for a moment I could pretend to be the Half-man-Half-Amazing... I just don't want VC to let me down like Shawn Kemp did when I was a kid... Can't believe he let T-Mac and kobe get ahead of him when he used to be better than them...
