OT-Sorry guys, and thank you!

Hey guys, I've been trying to stay away from forums this past week and trying to focus on my schoolwork and friends and not focusing on basketball.

I'll admit it's really nice not to have all this extra stress on me, and all I do is just check the boxscores on my phone to keep me updated but that's it.

I'm heading off from realgm and probably won't be back. I've got school to focus on and I've got my own site to help monitor, so thanks again for the Hospitality even though us Vince fans have had a rough go with you guys.

I'm really saddened that Vince did not make the most out of his opportunity in Phoenix. It was not only two weeks ago that he had 32points against Houston, was 6/6 in the 4th quarter, and we all were still thinking about the playoffs. Now Vince is where he should be. On the bench and counting down to the final days of his career.

It's sad to see, because I know what a prime Vince Carter can do. He could have been special with this team, but instead he chose to mail it in and not take the surgery (which would have helped this team more.) Alivn Gentry gave him the green light to shoot 18+ a game but Vince didn't take advantage. He's had the best medical staff in the league and he couldn't capitalize. he couldn't even make the most out of playing with Steve Frickin Nash. It sucks because he won't be picked up by the Suns and he didn't showcase himself to able to help a contender. He always says the right things, but never takes advantage.

I feel bad that Suns fan's never experienced the Vince that I was able to see, the one that actually could hit clutch shots, that could run the floor and finish on every break. He's just nothing but a former shell.

I can't defend this guy anymore. I'm still going to watch this guy till the end of his career, but I cannot handle realgm anymore. It's been fun guys, and thanks for everything but I'll be taking off.

(Even if Vince does well these last 10 games, it doesn't even matter.) Thanks again guys, and sorry.

It's not your fault. I wish you'd hang around. I don't hate the guy or anything but he is very frustrating to watch this year. Very cool having you here doing game threads tho, so thx.

Just because we want Vince gone ASAP doesn't mean you shouldn't stay and continue to be awesome!

Ugh. Gonna miss the game threads. As others have stated, we'd love to keep you around to post here and there, if nothing else. We don't like Vince. We do like RvM.

Been a pleasure bud.

RvM, I just want to say I respect you for your opinions and the fact that you respect our opinions as well. You're a poster we would like to see on the board. It's such a shame you decided to leave RealGM but nonetheless, good luck with your life and whatever you do.

Yeah. You should stay around. Rational people are rare around here these days.

Awesome game threads. Good luck with school, and come back as often as you can. You are now a Sunsnfan for life!

thanks for your awesome game threads and good posts! probably the best rational "player fan" poster i've seen on here. 1900 posts in under 2 years... well done, well done.

Been a pleasure having you here, RvM. Come back soon and often -

best of luck going forward

and, i sympathize with you - I am an unabashed Ammo supporter .....

Thanks for all the love guys, maybe in some alternate reality, the Suns pick up Vince's option and give him another chance......okay never mind.

I'll pop around from time to time, that's for sure, but I think you could see one reason on this thread I'd rather not deal on a rather basis.

I'll definitely be rooting for the Suns moving forward, you've got a good piece with Gortat/Dudley/Frye and the Nash/Hill situation is going to be crazy. Best of luck to you guys also!

LOL. As soon as I saw a Vince Carter thread, I said "I bet trolland4life" has trolled this thread already. And sure enough, he has. You can count on him to troll every Vince Carter thread on RealGM, if nothing else.
