    When you think about that, makes you realize that...it seems sometimes people forget how good Carter really is.</p>

    Well, there is...Kobe, Tmac, Ray ray, Pierce, Wade, Lebron, JJ. But those are some all-stars, or super stars right there. Top pier players...and that's exactly what Vince is.</p>

    i think everyone realizes vince is a special talent, but vince makes enemies because of how good he COULD be. he has so much talent and some games he comes out just jackin up shots and could be 0-8 and we are down big. i expect us to be in the playoffs and not just make it, but if vince wants to pay us back then payback comes in the playoffs. yes he has to play good in the regular season for us to make the playoffs, but we need him to take us to that next level in the playoffs. clutch shots, smart plays and just play great all around.</p>

    vince is like arod. both make a lot of money (obviously nobody makes more than arod), both have amazing talent, both perform very nicely during the regular season and put up nice numbers, both dont live up to their expectations in the playoffs. its sad to say but it is true. i am obviously a nets fan and i am a yankee fan, so its tough to see the most talented player on both teams struggle to propel the team to that next/championship level.</p>

    I don't think Carter is A-Rod, at least, he did very well in the 05-06 playoffs. He just needs the helpers to help him, now Sean, Josh, Nenad, Jamaal, are there, don't worried about Carter, and if he is fine with his jumpers right now, he is such a big presense in the EC.</p>

    I read this every year.</p>

    Instead of talking, let's see him run the court, move without the ball and play defense.</p>

    You never here about Vince conditioning himself in the off season so this right here is a good sign</p>

    And No way is Vince like ARod, he was one of the top scorers in the playoffs before last year</p>

    better then the likes of Kobe, Allen, O'neal etc.</p>

    </p>

    Absolutely correct. ARod is one of the greatest hitters ever, and will possibly be considered THE greatest when all is said and done. . . and he plays 3B or (once) SS, not 1B or DH. Vince isn't in his class.</p>

    HATING AT IT'S FINEST</p>

    My point isVince actually does produce in the playoffs it's just that he's getting a bad rep for last years performance</p>

    How is that hating? Vince is a good player, but not in ARod's class. Manny Ramirez is a heck of a baseball player, but he's not in ARod's class, either (although he's pretty close as a hitter).</p>

    Not hating, it's the truth. A-Rod's an MVP during the regular season, Vince has never gotten close to that. Face the facts...it's not hating. That's just how it is.</p>
