its a testament to the nets franchiseI guess this is old news, I just saw the Nets are retiring Vince Carters number.
To each their own I suppose, but every so often there's a number retirement that has me confused and this is for sure one of them.
Guessing going into the hall of fame has more to do with it, but that doesn’t explain some of the others they’ve retired.its a testament to the nets franchise
VC is their 3rd all time leading scorer despite only playing there for 4-5 seasons and was named to the ASG a few times. so by nets standards, he's certainly worthy of getting his jersey retired. surprised they're doing it before richard jefferson though, who was there much longer and was on those teams that made the finals in 02 and 03
There won't be a dry eye in the arena when the Jazz finally retire his number.Westbrook has been traded to the Jazz twice in 18 months, and will have played zero games for them.

i think he's properly rated. he was one of the most versatile scorers in the league in his prime. 10 seasons in a row averaging 20+ ppg and then you have the iconic dunksIs VC the most overrated player of all time? I get it he could dunk but....

spending the entire second half of his career as a role player and vet locker room presence has led people to forget how good he was in his toronto/nets days
Oh so we're doing this. No MVPs = this guy is a scrub. Is Dale Hawerchuk a bum because he existed in an era with the two greatest forwards in hockey history so the MVP was basically unattainable? No, that's why this post sucks.I mean, he never in the MVP discussion, I think his best finish was 10th? Never made a finals...or even a 3rd round? For a league that is so obsessed with rings and winning it not good.

They got Mike Bibby who was the better overall player. That only thing that screwed the Grizzlies over is the ownershipThe most overrated? No I don't think so.
Overrated though, yes. Great dunker, but for a team with championship aspirations he's not doing it on his own.
Personally I was never a fan. FWIW I liked Steve Francis better even though he pretty much screwed Vancouver over.
