    Chris Bosh - Duncan (potentially) with hops

    Alvin Williams - Kind of like the Grinch at the end of the movie, his heart has to be about four sizes too big for his body

    Donyell Marshall - Iron Silk

    Vince Carter: Underated due to so much being expected of him. He's playing as well as he should. With that said apart from his leadership and cautiousness, one word comes to mind, "Mature."

    Overrated

    Every season all we hear is

    "VC will be back" "The old Carter is a superstar"

    blah blah blah

    He gets injuried,doesn't perform

    As Barkley said

    Half man-half a season

    Good point, but I'm one of the people who knows he's not what he use to be. And also I like it, his cautiousness provides well for his team, he may not be as exciting anymore, but he certainly helps rack in some victories by bringing in some great help by himself. The lesser Carter is far superior.

    VC: Trapped

    Vince is trapped. He wants to be a perimeter player. His tendencies are for him to take shots from 20 feet instead of driving to the rim. He would rather create for others than for himself. The problem is that he has so much talent that the team needs him to score (and score often) instead of looking for others. That's why VC's shooting % suffers. If he takes shots because he feels he has to (because he is told he is the offense), instead of taken them because he is comfortable taken them his numbers change drastically. Get Vince to let the game come to hime and only shoot when he is ready, he makes 8 of 12, make him feel like he needs to provide all of the offense and he shoots 5 for 20.

    Just my thoughts.

    VC = Half Man - Half Season as Barkley says.....

    It's tough for him to come back because his injuries until he proves to me and every1 else he is the "franchise player" without getting injured than he will be better for the Raptors... but not now as he always getting himself hurt some way or some how

    Vince Carter = All about Vince

    He's not about the fans. He's not about his team. Vince Carter is about the gratification of his own ego through shoe deals and a max contract

    He's our guy and he's a great talent, but he isn't and, I think, never will be a champion because he doesn't want it enough. He's a creature of comfort and the whole Raptors organization is too scared of him taking his ball and going home to say' "We expect more of you"

    He'll fill score sheets and amaze, but the league is full of guys who can throw numbers at the wall. Right now VC is in Jerry Stackhouse and Shareef Abdur-Rahim's world of doing enough to look great but, ultimately, missing a key component called "Heart"

    Bash away.........
