.............. That's why I kept thinking VC is underrated...

People think Jordan Farmar and Crawford are better than VC... wow...

People realize that Carter scores more points on fewer shots right? People realize that Carter is a better rebounder and passer, right? People realize that even though Carter isn' an All-D player, he is at least as effective as Crawford, right? People realize that Carter has the best +/- on his team and Craw has the fourth highest on his team, right? People realize that Craw has a below average PER at 14.8 and VC has an above average one at 17.8 (career low).

People just get carried away this "heart" stuff, and don't get me wrong, that matters. The thing is, Craw's "heart" and "clutchness" at the end of a game don't make up for the fact that he is a less effective player. Heart isn't going to add points to the score or take back bad shots or prevent a player from getting an O rebound or make a key pass. lack of heart is the reason VC isn't as good as Kobe, but it doesn't make him an average NBA shooting guard.

doesnt matter if they would because the knicks wouldnt even consider it.. we lose our best trade asset, our best player, and gain an overpaid bum who also is a loser with a huge/long contract.. and funny how jamal who was playing great has a couple bad games and theres knick fans in here saying hes terrible while they were praising him a week before, fake ass fans gtfo

and lol at carter a borderline franchise player? are you joking? maybe in nba 2k8 but not the real nba, this board is hilarious.. ofcourse vc is better than jc but he doesnt even give 100% and gets paid double, screw him

VC's motivation may be put to question, but he's still above Crawford easily.

Come on, I like Crawford and all, but Carter is better than him in every aspect of the game, and by a pretty substantial margin. The hate for Carter is crazy....
