Fate just has other plans for 'Wince'. At least it was on a dunk attempt :)

Hey, we made like the Sixers and we sucked it up and pulled out the win. That's all that matters. :cool:

I thought Vince's injury woes were behind him. Mind you, if this is how it happened:

The Article wrote:Vince Carter went down clutching his right leg after losing his balance during a dunk attempt Thursday night in a game against the New Orleans Hornets.


It's an injury that could potentially happen to anyone, given the nature of the game of basketball. But Vince certainly has bad luck when it comes to injuries.

Man, he is starting to get as unrelieable as like Marcus Camby (N)
Anyway I think it sucks more that Karl Malone had missed more game this year, than in whole career. (N)
Carter getting injured is just standard presijdure (spl?)

Camby hasnt been injured badly this year.............................yet :)
Hes been the quiet part of Nuggets success IMO.
anyway, Carter again out with an injury, it hurts the game imo, as seen with the All-Star voting, people like to watch him play, im not a fan of him, but respect has to be givin, now another injury, ouch!

Presijdure.............hehe
Procedure im pretty sure is correct

This injury is not his jumpers knee so I don't think it will affect him that much. He won't be gone too long also so i wouldn't worry about it to much.

Vince Carter will never be as good as Grant Hill was in his primedays.
Grant Hill played like a all-time top 50 player from the 94-00. He was the best all-around player you could find playing the NBA. But Since the 00-01 season everything has gone to hell.

It's a strained quadricep muscle, not his knee. The fact that it's listed as day-to-day is encouraging. He might not have to miss too many games.
