    Toronto at Atlanta

    Vince Carter with 26 first half points including four 3 point field goals. Hopefully he definitly will finish the game with more then 30 points, but lets see if he can make it 40 and pull a kobe.

    It's the freaking Hawks. Glad to see Vince shooting a high%, but I want to see him step it up against the premiere teams.

    One good game won't "silence the critics".

    I hope he does get to an elite level, but one game ain't gonna get it done.

    No matter who hes facing, the point was that hes a good player, and just because he was injured people thought he was bad.

    ya, but its a good way to get back, dont you agree? hes been scoring more and more points, so in a way it is 'silencing the critics'

    great game by VC...

    i'll be honest...im not a fan...i think he consistently lets his team down, i don't think he works hard enough nor takes his role as a superstar seriously enough...so i won't ever be a fan because i don't think he ever took the steps to maximize his abilities...he's a great athlete and an exciting player especially dunker but his shot is often times inconsistent and that must come from a lack of practice...

    but it is great to see him have a good game...im a fan of the NBA...and i love seeing people perform at high levels, whether i like them or not...hopefully he will continue to play well for the raptors sake as well as his own

    no youre wrong. when he was hurt he was not playing. hence he was scoring NO points a game. what critic has changed theirmind since the all star break? he hasnt silenced anyone. of COURSE hes doing better now but thats only cuz he couldnt possibly do anyworse than before.

    oldschool, he silenced Keon Clark...Keon was one of his biggest critics, i dont hear Keon talkin shit now. On Vinces return when he scored 22 points in 23 minutes (something like that) Keon shut his mouth. Vince Carter is making his team win much more and thats what a teams Franchise player is suppose to do.

    im sorry v03 but what hes doing is just on such a small scale. im not talking about silencing players he goes up against . im talking about all the experts who agree that he doesnt have the talent or focus or toughness to be a franchise player. so far hes done nothing ot prove them wrong.
    hes a great dunker and a good scorer but hes ntot going to lead a team to a championship.
