    ^^ Was that in Mo's rookie year when he threw the ball back over his head on the break and Carter caught it and dunked and both of them were screaming and tapping each other's chest?

    Yeah, I loved that as well.

    I also loved that one alleyoop in the 1999-2000 season when Oakley throws it up without looking and Carter catches it (in New Jersey), dunks it and then does a gun pointing up thing while the Toronto jersey waves like a flag along with his movement. It looks classic in slow motion. That's one of my favourite plays; it's not a spectacular dunk but I'll never forget that play and the first time I saw it on slow-motion on some TSN thing.

    No......the moment when Carter and Mo pete exchanged play slaps to each others face, Mo pete then got sent out of the game, while VC stayed and hit clutch 3's that eventually beat the raptors....It was very amusing yet sad at the same time.

    Raptors last game of the season 1998-1999 (lockout shortened season the raptors went 23-27 on the year). However a brutal 6 game losing streak pushed them out of play-off contention. Anyway on may 5th they beat the cavs 96-87. VC threw down a sick 360 on the fast break . Watching that game I just thought damn this team is going to win a cahmpionship one day. T-mac had 16 points 7 rips 6 ast and 3 steals. It just seemed like everything was in place.

    Carter crossing out a player on the Spurs, I forgot who, and then just shits on David Robinson. Fantastic.

    Against the Bucks, Carter did an up and under layup that only hit the backboard, but he followed it up with a two handed jam... It looked like he threw it off the backboard to himself, so it was cooler than it sounds.

    Anyone mention the game against Atlanta? The Raptors were trailing with only a few seconds remaining, and Carter nailed a 180 layup over Ratliff for a three point play. Next play, Carter blocks Jason Terry (his head was near rim level for christ sakes!), and saves the ball and calls time-out. Then Dion Glover slips and falls while Carter recieves the ball off a screen and buries the game winner. Classic Vinsanity, I remember going nuts and jumping up and down all around my house.

    Our first game on National TV, February 2000? where we faced the Suns and Carter dropped 51. Good thing I recorded that game [​IMG]
    </div>

    That game along with VC's 50 pt performance vs philly are proably my favourite moments(that i have watched).

    And how about donyell marshall's 12 3pt performance?

    I believe it was Bowen. This game is still one of my favourites.

    I've seen that play, one of my favourites as well. And Carter strutting back court of course. I also have to add that game against the Bucks when Ray Allen took VC's roster spot on the Olympic team and Carter faced them a day or 2 after...everyone was hyped for the game and Carter droped 47 including that windmill that really tore the rim as well as the roof off the building. It was CRAZY! One of my favourite basketball memories period right there.

    I forget what season that was from, I just remember Vince having that black armband on his hand but I screamed and ran around when he did those sequences, it was surreal.I believe it was the 2002-2003 season?

    I think the Bucks game when Carter windmilled it, Leo or one of the TSN guys were calling it and the commentary went somehting like:

    "Mugsy Bogues, to Vince Carter....OHHH!! WINDMILL JAM!"
    *Crowd goes crazy for next 10 minutes*

    I'll never forget that game..the city was in the palm of Vince's hand then...Grade 5 memories..sighhh
