    Carter may be down a lot of the time, maybe it is because of weak body and attitude, but the injuries he's faced, he's really been a fighter if you ask me, so injury prone, getting nagging, very serious injuries and coming back whilst still playing well. AD I believe, regardless of Carter playing badly sometimes, everybody does, is just jealous and ill speaking even if Carter has those negative qualities, he wouldn't be able to do any better himself so he needs to learn to respect others and just play. Him, Shaq and TMac have big mouths.

    Yeah, those were some times man. I actually forgot about Vince during the Raps run. I guess chemistry is a good thing. You're right though, AD has come out to light a fire under Vince. I have no doubt that this will motivate Vince in the long run. He needs this kind of thing too I guess, and if history repeats itself he will play better because of it. Vince we should all know trys to play low-key. He seems to have lost this edge that he used to have when he first came into the league, no doubt because of his injuries now.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting thefranchise3:</div><div class="quote_post">His quote about the management...

    "A lot of those other guys were just old-school guys who knew the fundamentals of basketball but they couldn't keep up with the game," said Davis. "They'd go and look at stats and say, `Oh, yeah, he's a good player.' Why else would you take Michael Bradley over Zach Randolph? Michael Bradley's numbers might've been better. But if you look at these kids play, you know Zach has more of an upside than Michael. And I'm not knocking either one of them. I'm just saying that."

    That is nothing but the truth, how can you hate him for that?
    </div>
    You can hate him because all he's doing right there is kicking a man when he's down. There's a very good chance that those comments towards GG are true but he was already fired so there was absolutely no reason criticize him in that way. I don't see what Davis hoped to accomplish with those statements seeing how GG wasn't even the GM anymore.


    AD's statements could very well be true but the reason why most people are mad at Davis is because of the way he approached the whole situation. It seems like the reason he made those comments is to take revenge on Toronto for the way we treat him when he comes to town. It's actually very ironic that he would compare Raptor fans to bitter ex-girlfriends when he himself is acting like a bitter ex-Raptor.

    Right now Davis is making T-Mac look a lot better in the eyes of Raptor fans. McGrady realized that when the fans were booing him, it's all mainly out of respect. Raptor fans won't just boo any ex-Raptor, they would only boo the one's that they respect and that actually meant something to them. T-Mac realized this and that's why he never let it get to him. Davis, on the other hand, couldn't grasp this fact and that's the reason why his comments are immature and unprofessional.

    The comments he made towards Carter do not bother me at all though. Like thefranchise3 said, they very well could be true and only positive things will come out of it. I too heard that Carter was notorious for not taking care of himself in the offseason and that's the #1 cause for professional athletes being injury prone.

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting intrepid1983:</div><div class="quote_post">harry_balls5, half of the things you said were pretty ignorant, premium_plus was partially right. First of all, you said all that junk, then when premium_plus says something back, you act as though you dont care and go straight gunnin for him instead. You just got angry b/c someone challenged you, and with writing a post like that you have to expect to get challenged for ssaying some unfactual things there. It is obvious even if someone tells you the truth, you are one of those people that wouldnt listen and make the whole world a worst place. If you dont care so much, then why'd you write all that stuff for in the first place? Keon did diss Vince, it was all over the paper a couple days after he was traded, and you're the one telling premium_plus to get his facts straight, UNBELIEVABLE. You're saying McGrady is so good? He's amazing. Then why cant he lead his team out of the first round of the playoffs? PPl keep saying he's so amazing, but team record wise, he's proven nothing year after year. Vince is a great athlete with an even better personality. He took it and didnt even say anything bad about Davis, he takes alot of smack talk from ppl. But I notice other athletes usually cant take the talk punishment when people talk bad about them such as Webber. Now he wants to leave Sacramento. Kobe, he wants to leave LA, Vince is really good at taking criticism. And you know what? Vince isnt even playing bad, whens the last time McGrady pulled up for the clutch shot like Vince? And where are his highlight reel things? Carter has 100 times more than McGrady. But you know what? I choose McGrady in NBA Live over Vince all the time. Since he's so overrated, they make him better in the game.</div>
    first, u dont know my thouhts so dont just ASSUME that i got angry bcuz some1 challenged me. instead of making retarded assumptions just keep ur mouth shut.

    and yes, i dont really care too much about vince so i wont be tagging back to ur gay ass posts. anyway, just read this article found in the star. it pretty much sums up my point.

    I knew you'd put Dave Feschuk articles up, he's a pretty dumb reporter, all he does is criticize since he's a leaf reject reporter. I know his career, so i know his personality. You should be the one to keep your mouth shut, since you post up unfactual things too. And if you're true to your word this time... then you won't tag back to my post like what you said now. Lets see...

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"When I was at practices he worked extremely hard, played that whole five weeks," said O'Neill. "So the one off-season I was around Vince, he played a lot of basketball."</div>

    Well this is what KO said.


    HAHA a Feschuk article, he's the most Bias Star reported their is. He hates GG, Vince and always criticizes them, and loves KO and Bosh and will compliment them as much as possible. I don't take his views to acount at all, if you read a lot of his articles you'll inderstand why.
