That's an awesome mix.

Man, people just don't appreciate Carter.

No matter what people think of him, I hope they realise that players like him just don't come around that often.

He is literally a once a decade type of player, if not rarer.

For me, Vince is the NBA. When I moved to Canada from Europe, basketball wasn't all that big for me. Obviously everyone knew MJ. What got me into it was Vince. Every single arena in the NBA used to get packed for Raptor games because people wanted to see VC. Like Kobe got his MVP chants, Carter got standing ovations for 3-4 years straight. Brought people to their feet every single game, until those injuries hit (and I believe the reason the slam dunk competition is back is because of him also...). It is what it is though, I'm up near Toronto, but I will never dis-like him for what happened here. I believe if it wasn't for him, Toronto could have turned out like Vancouver, so I appreciate what we did get for the time being.
