In their primes?

McGrady..

Pierce has a ring, but also had KG and Allen

Carter has the athleticism, but that can only take u so far (Gerald Green)

Primes-

McGrady
Carter
Pierce

Though, right now, I'd probably take Pierce first.

In their prime Vince Carter, at one point people were saying he was going to be better than Kobe remember 2000-2001, 27.6 ppg, 5.5 rpg, 4 apg, 1.5 spg, 1.1 bpg. NBA second team and finished 5th in MVP voting. But then look what happened down the road with injuries and lack of work ethic and desire. I feel Vince only had maybe 2-3 prime years with all the injuries and the sulking his POTENTIAL was never reached! (WOW what could have been!) Freakin has-been!

t-mac

back in the days he was sick and he still shows it sometimes

but prime vince and pierce are very very close

on the other hand it is arguable whose prime lasted longer. I'd say Pierce had the longest time being in his prime.

Easily prime McGrady, scoring from all angles, explosiveness, play making ability, defense, he had at all...his resume is even good..7 time all star, 7 time all nba team, but he lacks the playoff success to reach further.

If we're talking prime, this threads starts and ends with T-Mac. Because of his playoff woes, ppl forget just how much of a monster he was back then
