Did Vince Choke in the Playoffs?

Mon Apr 24, 2006 9:55 am

31points, 13rebs, and 6asst.......but attempted 33 shots and 8 treys......but no turnovers and heat up in final minutes

Does the good out weight the bad, or Vince cause 'em the game?

In my opinion, he did. :evil: (N)

Look at Kidd's shoting percentage before you blast vince for taking too many shots.

Mon Apr 24, 2006 10:00 am

Vince shoots it when he is outnumbered, outsized, anything. Smarter decisions are needed. His career is too much of a focus on highlight reels.

And your posting is too much of a focus on retartedness

I wouldn't say he choked, he just settled too much for that outside jumper. They were saying during the broadcast that for his giftedness, he doesn't attack the hoop nearly enough, while using examples like Kobe and T-Mac who attack the rim all the time. It just so happened that today the shots wouldn't drop, and instead of attacking the basket, he just kept jacking them up in hope he'd get his shooting touch back. Also notice, almost everytime he did attack the basket (not counting the first quarter), he either scored or got fouled. He didn't choke, he just made some poor decisions.

The Pacers just rule and Nets suck :twisted:

Mon Apr 24, 2006 10:35 am

It's one game. How are you going to say he choked in the entire playoffs.

Well he was prolly a bit intimated to go in everytime, first off you have one of the best shotblaockers in the L in Jermaine Oneal down there then did u see that fall he had on that and one? Where he flew in for the layup and he was gonna come down on anthony johnson and he bashed his tail bone, that prolly made him want to try those outside shots.

It was kinda dumb to give richard jefferson, a streaky outside shooter to begin with the chance to win it with a tough shot like he took (Fade away corner three at the buzzer). I liked what kerr said get it to Kristic and let him get a foul.

Mon Apr 24, 2006 10:40 am

Kerr's an idiot. You have vince, Jefferson, and even a struggling Kidd, and he wants to goto Kristic? :crazy:

Mon Apr 24, 2006 10:42 am

He did great statwise.. :|

Yes, Franks an idiot. He went to VC all game, now why all of a sudden go to RJ?

ummm, 22pts on 9-15 shooting and he went 5-7 from the line? Jermaine Oneal has 5 fouls and kristic has been alking all over the Pacers in the 2nd half, you go with whose hott, it should have been kristic or carter.

Mon Apr 24, 2006 10:56 am

Vince was shooting horribly to start, if I remember correctly he was 6-21 at one stage at half time or something.

I still wouldnt trust him over vince or kidd or jefferson with the game on the line.

As Kerr says in Live 06, "Carter likes to fall in love with that outside shot" and some of the same "needs to drive to the basket" crap.

Mon Apr 24, 2006 3:58 pm

Don't know if he choked or not, but Vince just looks so retarded when he's trying to look tough.. :lol:

Mon Apr 24, 2006 3:59 pm

NOPE VINCE QUITE GOOD

Mon Apr 24, 2006 4:00 pm

I don't think the Nets will pull this series out. The Pacers have always had the talent to be a conference finals team, they've just been injured and only now seem to put it all together again. When he's not in foul trouble, the Nets don't have an answer for Jermaine O'Neal.

Mon Apr 24, 2006 4:29 pm

And the Pacers have an answer for Jefferson or Kidd? Stephen Jackson is a tough player as well, but he cant guard Vince either.. so the pacers dont have an answer for any of their big 3. This might go 7, and New Jesey is an explosive team.

Mon Apr 24, 2006 5:29 pm

It's been a long time since Vince drove consistantly.

Mon Apr 24, 2006 7:22 pm

if the nets manage to play the same level they finished the regular season they will win this one.
and VC choked? that's bs, he keeps the nets in the game

you want to back that up? Insulting with no words to disprove me?

You know, all i've got to say to you is shut up and provide a reason for disagreeing. Everyone else is civil you're the only retard on here who instead of saying "I don't think so" goes and calls someone a retard.

You're a damn Artest.

Tue Apr 25, 2006 5:49 am

um.. 13 for 33 is horrible. He puleld a "Kobe" this game, I mean c'mon, if you know you are struggling, STOP SHOOTING!!!!!!!!

Tue Apr 25, 2006 5:53 am

He didn't choke..he just played like the old vince...ball-hog-shot-jacker-vince. This guy's play style is such a waste of talent. He should be just as good or better than kobe by now.
