Vince is arguably the greatest dunker of all time, but his shooting ability, playmaking creativity was so overlooked. Hope VC gets one more poster in his final season #22 💯🔥and at least a last All Star invite
Agreed, if Adam Silver has a functioning brain, then he needs to do right by Vince and add him to the All-Start squad like he did for both Dirk and Wade last year.
@@elreiec1 facts
Still amazes me how VC wasn't in a 3pt contest , not even a candidate.
That’s what i said too!!!
This is easily the best roster Vince Carter ever had in his career. He never played on a serious Championship contending team before.
Also, Vince finally got to play next to an elite big man in Prime Dwight Howard. Which he also never had in Toronto Raptors or New Jersey Nets. During 2000s, having a great big man was always needed for a team who competed for a Championship.
But sadly, Vince was 33 year old and obviously past his prime at that point of his career. His performances against Boston Celtics in ECF 2010 was difficult to watch.
Abu Hassan that last sentence is an understatement. Looking back Vince actually played quite well in game 1 and most of game 2 - actually hit two big clutch shots near the end ...but those two missed free throws completely broke his psyche and it was incredibly hard to watch. Didn't help that Vince has never gotten the respect of the officials. Wish he would've gotten another shot in 2011 but can't completely fault Orlando as Vince couldn't stay completely healthy and was a little inconsistent.
I think he gets unfairly scapegoated for that series against the Celtics. In game 1 he was the ONLY ONE on his team who came to play and as you said he was solid in game 2. The games where he hardly did anything were WINS, though! The team was meant to be stacked, not just his team, and he wasn't really needed for those games. I really can only blame him for missing those FTS.
I see your comments in every Vince vid that Max uploads. Kudos to you good sir; you certainly know your basketball.
@@mikesannitti6042 Come to think of it ...I now remember just how terrible the coaching was. The team would play through Howard or Jameer throughout the game...and then come the 4rth q - sort of just expected Vince to behave like a video game and give them instant offense under intense defense without having formed any rhythm whatsoever. Sometimes it was flat out ridiculous.
@@sauce556 i think Stan Van (and possibly Joerger who tried to end his career twice) was the worst coach Vince ever had. Vince's role then was ill defined and more fitting for the 40 year old version of himself where he stays on the perimeter and out of Dwight's way. I'm actually surprised there were this many drives this year, but in nearly every one of the pick plays you can see Dwight looking for the ball and sometimes looking upset despite Vince making the shot.
Half man/half amazing - - - - > and I thought he would become half man/half arthritis. He was still making plays past 40. Made me eat my words. Massive respect to Vinsanity!
I wanted to see him and Kobe in the finals so dam bad
He went right 99 percent of the time in this video
6:16 i guess people can "throwdown" three's?
I wish Magic would had gave them one more run!
I love Vince. But for some reason I feel Vince got old really fast once he joined the Magic......
A hard year for Vince. Never forget the struggling January. Then former coach Lawrence Frank came and he did better against Bucks then few days later dropped down 48 points. Like others said, his contribution in the Playoff was underrated, Orlando lost first two games when he scored and won games he barely scored. Those two free throws really broke him down. He was always better than Paul Pierce until then. It's a series hard to recall. And I will never forgive Orlando for trading him for Gilbert Arenas and Jason Richardson the next season. Really stupid.
Well, we traded Rashard for Arenas. Which was whatever. Both were washed up.
Agreed. That Boston series was rough. I still have trouble believing the Celtics were the better team. Definitely shouldn't have made those trades the following season. Too early to break them up.
Never forget when he dropped 48 on the Hornets. I was rooting for him to get that 50 though.
People sleep on the fact that VC could’ve easily had his career high with Orlando. Not Toronto. Not jersey. Would’ve been crazy
That really is crazy to think about had he done that in a Magic uniform.
For me, the game I thought he would have had a career-high was when he was a Net. I recall watching this on TV; he was going off at home vs. the prime Spurs and torching Bruce Bowen. He had around 43 at the end of 3 quarters and was on fire. The notoriously overrated Bowen pulled a dirty move (putting his feet in Vince's landing zone) and ended up getting Vince his second tech of the game. Vince was ejected, and the Nets ended up losing. He also spoiled Vince's possible career night.
@@elreiec1 Bowen , I can’t stand him and he sucked lol
and they chose Lilard,AD,WB over VC,Tmac,Dwight in top 75 haha pathetic!
This season showed most how unselfish VC has always been. He could've averaged 20+ and been the Man, but he had a theme with his scoring in this team, he'd end nights with 20points while scoring 18 in the second half. I think they should have fully ran thru him then howard. He was the only one in that team who could put the ball on the floor and score from different angles. They also shouldn't have broken up the team so stupidly. I believe this team could've competed with the miami big 3: no one was big enough to box out Dwight, Rashad Lewis was a mobile 4 for Bosh, Vince has always been able to put up numbers over wade, and orlando had a deep bench; LeBron would've had to average 40. So they should've re-signed Barness, never let VC, Pietrus, Gortat, Lewis go. Hedo had a few good seasons but never returned to his orlando form, JRich has never been a dependable scorer on a good team, Arenas was not the same guy was before the gun charges
Vince was actually off to a solid start when he got traded to Phoenix, too. I think it really came down to the Diva in the middle wanting more touches.
@@mikesannitti6042 True. I was actually impressed with Vince in his second season with the Magic. His body looked much better, he worked his butt off in the off-season that year, and he was looking spry. His decline was obvious after the trade to Phoenix but, despite what people remember, he had some pretty solid games with Phoenix as well (29 points, 32 points etc).
@@mikesannitti6042 I agree 💯. Since the beginning I've always thought that Howard was just a taller Ben Wallace, same as Javale, Drummond, and Tyson Chandler, the difference is that he had some success scoring. The problem is that he's never improved from when he came in the league. Never fully developed any type of consistent shot. Had Dwight had played the role of garbage man behind Vince, that team could've won more than 59 games. And I know he'd had a rough series vs Boston ECF but i think the bigger issue was that boston figured Howard out. Boston stopped doubling Howard and put a big body one on one with him. Since he couldn't muscle Perkins nor Davis, he turned to shit.
@@Dashman98 That's completely correct. It still beats me how single covering Howard wasn't completely obvious to any coach with a brain whose team played against the Magic.
For me, his most disappointing season. His body looked weak, his shot looked uncertain, people started telling him that he "is old" and he started to play that role. Just a few months ago, in his last games with the Nets, he looked much better. Vince was no longer Vince. His shot, that previously looked like the ball was on a "rail" to the basket, with perfect rotation, looked so different, even the bounces of the ball on the rim looked differently.
I guess it happens to players traded from a team where they were playing for a long time - they don't longer feel that "alpha dog cockiness" and their shooting (and overall confidence) suffers. But still, no excuse for his physical appearance just a few months after him looking perfectly fine with the Nets. I don't know what was happening in his life at this point so I'm not going to speculate.
Heck, even the commentators were boring! This and his first season with the Mavs are the most disappointing ones in his career, for me. Despite the 48-point game (which, by the way, pissed me off really hard because at the end Vince was inbounding the ball and other people were fouled to shoot the free throws, instead of him, SVG was a terrible coach with terrible awareness of what's going on).
Well he had that 1 month stretch when he forgot how to play, but going towards the Playoffs he looked fine, but yes looked a bit outta shape even though I love that SVG made him going towards the rim more and as shown in the video he got some fairly easy layups often.
what if Vince vs. Kobe in the 2010 NBA Final... That would be a dream matchup!! Too bad C's were so great in defense
At that point in their respective careers, Kobe easily had the edge over Vince. But it definitely would have been fun to watch.
Kobe was always better but it would've been fun to watch them go at it
@@pookyman12 Vince was better than Kobe in early 2000s.
@@abuhassan8849 there was no amount of time throughout Vince Carters life that he was better then Kobe. Especially not the early 2000's where the debate was TMac or Kobe. While Kobe was dropping 30 ppg alongside Shaq also dropping 30 ppg.
@@pookyman12 no he legit was better than Kobe. He had Shaq so he wasn’t the focus of defenses when they had to deal with Shaq as well. You are absolutely out of your mind if you thought Kobe was better than VC in 99-01 before VC’s injuries following those years. First step, 3PT, blocking was far more advanced vs Kobe. He was also stronger and just took him on the post very easily. When he went to the nets and was reinvigorated, he was the best player from Dec of 04 through April. Putting up insane numbers.
Que jugadorazo, como enchufa. Mucho más que un dunker
Vince just took a seat back, he should had been more aggressive during this era. Especially in the play offs, when they were losing to the Celtics he should had told the coach to shut the hell up and let him cook when needed.
Too busy being a team player when he was clearly the best offensive player on that squad. Stan Van Gundy continued to show that he was a poop coach overall
Most underrated VC year ever! He got back in shape and looked like he was back in his prime. Should've been an all star reserve over Gerald Wallace!!!!!
Hell no crash deserved that
33 than is a way different 33 now, crazy
High definition!
That's the best part 🤝🏾💯
If Otis could of just kept this team for one more season, we would of been back to the finals,
Agreed. Vince proved in Dallas shortly after he had a lot left to contribute and how good he can be when used properly.
Still can’t get over how he assed it up in the ECF vs Boston 🤦🏾♂️
He was still decent with the Magic but after he left the nets, he declined really quickly
At age 33 Vince Carter's game kinda reminds me of an older Paul Pierce or Wizards Michael Jordan. Still talented despite a drop in his athleticism.
I always thought if Orlando got Vc the season before the would have been scary
Great job, Max!
Vince Carter's swagger is one of a kind. HOF it is! Let's go!!
he attacked the rim more often than he did in late years with Nets
Not really. The highlights just make it look that way.
@@mikesannitti6042 forgot to say it looks like...
Vince was good ITS SAD FOR HIM TO RETIRE :(
This roster on 2k would be OP lmao
Mannnnn listen. You had to be there. NBA 2k10 was one of my favs.
Turkoglu was in toronto this yr. But they had jason Williams coming off the bench
It was, I had so much fun using that team!!! I wish they kept it as a classic so I could use it til this day lol
A hard year for Vince, he really sacrificed a lot for the whole team
Lot of egos on that team. Once VC got in good rhythm Feb-April he was playing really well. But definitely wasn’t the right chemistry to win the east. But certainly enough to sweep the first 2 rounds.
He recovered part from his athleticism that season
9:31 😓😓😓
This is my man
had he arrived in Orlando a season earlier they might not have gotten swept in the Finals
They didn't get swept in the finals, and they didn't even make the finals with Vince, so...
@@xviper2k gentleman's sweep close enough and obviously which is why i said had he gotten there a year earlier maybe they win more than 1 game
the last year of his prime
it was the first year of a brand new system too. definitely some bumps figuring out how to be aggressive to be with 2 other ball dominant players (Dwight, and Jameer Nelson who was always looking to shoot). Some bright moments and some bad stretches. Wish they could've run it back because when VC on the magic was clicking, he was looking great.
Huh ?! He was at his prime until the 05/06 season or even 06/07 after that he only regressed and in Orlando he was nothing more than a shadow of himself...
As a Vince fan he really disappointed me this year and showed me he lacked the desire to win a championship
I think that’s very short sighted. It was a flawed team built around a flawed player (Howard). Dwight was billed as the number 1 option and the team leader. But he didn’t have a dangerous offensive game and he wasn’t a true leader. It also had too much ego. Jameer and Lewis each wanted 20ppg along with Dwight and VC. The group as a whole didn’t mesh. But there was a stretch, especially 2nd half of the season where VC was clicking. I just wish the offense ran through him, not Dwight and Jameer.
