As a die hard Nets fan losing Vince Carter this week was hard. I felt the best way to honor him would be to compile his greatest moments as a Net and put it all into one place. Not going to bother ranking them or anything like that, just want people to enjoy the moments.
This first one is from this past season. Vince collects ball at mid court after it was tipped and decides to pull up from 35 feet which of course was wet. Actually was at this game, good win for the Nets as they stayed in playoff contention.
Another game winning three this time from 2005. Probably a sweet moment for Vince since it came against his former team the Raptors and it was in Toronto. Vince was booed this entire game everytime he touched the ball.
Yet another Vince game winning three pointer this time against the Jazz and again from 35 feet. From what I remember the Nets needed this win badly and they also were running a little streak in which they were beaten by game winning shots.
2005 Playoffs vs. the Heat Nets down two, Vince catches ball in corner, fires up a shot that hits the rim, bounces straight up, comes down catches rim again and somehow goes in at the buzzer to send the game to overtime. Love the delayed crowd reaction. Another game I was at.
Vintage Vince Carter. Throwing down a vicious dunk on Alonzo Mourning. Was even more sweet considering it was on him.
Highlights of Vince going for his career high 51 points vs. the Heat in 2005.
Finally Vince stroking a long game tying three pointer with Anthony Parkers hand in face to force overtime. Then in overtime catching a lob and reverse dunking for the game winner off an inbounds.
Goodluck Vince! You will be missed Vince! VC for threeeeeeeeeeee
