I just got back to my CPU this morning. I know most of you live on the other side of the world but if you missed the 360 layup by Vince Carter against the Lakers on Friday you missed one of the sickest plays in awhile.
I suggest you look for the highlight.

It's on nba.com,
www.nba.com/video and then a couple days back.

Ah who am I kidding, that was a sick play...to bad he had to do it against the Lakers.

too bad if it was the old vince Carter it woulda been a 360 dunk
Tue Feb 01, 2005 5:37 am
Great play.. but Caron Butler did the same thing.

He did? Was that this year?

the butler play was pretty impressive. i didn't think he had any 'gracefulness' to his game
Tue Feb 01, 2005 6:18 am
Butler's spin was still on the ground though.
Tue Feb 01, 2005 6:48 am
Is he talking about the spin and dunk? That's not even close to being the same play...
Tue Feb 01, 2005 7:19 am
Uh, where can I um, see the play? I clicked the link, but don't know where to go after that.

Caron Butler did a spin move in the air for a layup. It was similar to Vince Carter's.

Anyways, after fri's and Sat's night games VInce looks very strong.
If he continues to play like this the Nets will win the division. (The division is so weak, i know it's nothing special but they get the playoff berth)
Do you guys think it can happen? Thoughts?
Tue Feb 01, 2005 8:33 am
IDK, VC is having a small comeback...I didn't see the play, but come on, a 360 LAYUP!!! This is not a DUNK...why is this something special, I CAN DO THAT!

Doing a 360 layup while 2 defenders are coming at you is hard to do. This isn't exactly the same thing as trying the layup in your driveway by yourself.
Tue Feb 01, 2005 9:03 am
Yeah teh 360 wasn't for no reason, it was to avoid being blocked in traffic. Maybe I got the Butler layup confused with something else. I'm confused again
Tue Feb 01, 2005 9:37 am
Sorry Guys. I did not elaborate. He had 3 sick plays in that game and has put 30 up twice in a row. I did not ask the question just cause he made the layup there were other factors.
Tue Feb 01, 2005 9:58 am
Vince Carter has definitley shown signs of his old self. How do you think the Nets are beginning to put up "W's" with Jefferson out and bunch of role players other than Kidd and Carter.
These two have really stepped up lately, Kidd is beginning to play like and All-Star point guard again and Vince has been playing like no one expected him to play.
I won't lie, I did doubt Vince when the trade first happened, but now I couldn't be happier.
And that layup was sick, in between Brian Cook and somebody else, it was in traffic, not just a clear path to the basket.

Carter charged into Brian Cook.

Illegal..
Tue Feb 01, 2005 12:43 pm
Looks like a charge to me..
Tue Feb 01, 2005 12:46 pm
Man, nobody is focused on Brian Cook. When VC goes to the lane and turns a 360, what are you looking at? Brian Cook's feet or Vince Carter?

I could not have said it any better myself. Cook gets on my nerves. I plan on yelling tonight at the game.

The refs do.
