oh well choclair is performin at half time...its the national anthem so it doesnt really matter who sings it unless its anastasia...

Psubs

They were door gifts. I told my friend to hold mine and I went to another hander outer and asked for another (they don't care). You may want to go to another entrance so they didn't see you get the first one. This year I'm increasing my gift number to 3.
Last year's sponser was that phone thing Solo. It said Solo on the front in an orange box and on the back it had a big Vince Carter Charity Game logo. It's pretty solid.

I've seen other people with the Solo shirt but plain on the back.

on the fan590 web site they have released 2 names that will be at Vince's Charity game.

Jerry Stackhouse
and Shawn "The Matrix" Marion will be participating in this years event.

2 big names already...i hope there will be more released soon.

Psubs

For some reason, I have a feeling that Gary Payton will be there.
He was listed to come last year but was a no show. Sorry I've got no source, just can't remember where I heard about it. But Matrix and Stack are good additions. They'll be dunkin' something fierce but hopefully they will shoot a little better than last year. I found in the second half there were way too many errand alley oop passes and missed trey's.
But Vince's windmill off the backboard made me forget about the misplays.

3peatcomplete and psubs you guys have to join me Sime and bud to meet at the game. I dont know maybe before the game get somethin to eat or after the game chill at a bar.

Psubs

Man, you guys make me feel old and I'm only just turned 25!

Most of you are on summer vacation, I work downtown. So after work I was probably going to grab a bite with my friend before the game! We can all grab something outside of the ACC (rip off).

Well lookie there Gary Payton will be in town.
I hope Magette will be there again because he's super-athletic.
Vince only outscored him and Brand with a late burst in the 4th quarter.

It's not just Gary Payton who was here last year and dident participate. At playdium there was this huge party the day before Vince's charity game with.

-Iverson
-Shaq
-Garnet
-Webber
-Kenyon Martin
-Tracy Mcgrady

It was JYD'S party and all those guys plus tons more showed up. It was advertised all over last year for playdium.
Also KG had a private party with tons of B-Ball players and rappers 2 nights before the game but did not play in the game because or Kory Stringers death.

Shaq held his own all star game the same day as Vince at Ryerson university. It was a celeb all-star game, Mcgrady was there with all sorts of rappers.

Just about all the big stars come to the event to celebrate Caribanna. Last year on Much Shaq guarenteed that he will keep comming up here untill he cant walk because he loves the city and Caribanna. I just have no reason why some of these players dont play at Vince's Game.

I personally think that they just don't want anything to do with basketball for the summer. I mean its time to relax and have fun, playing basketball must be a drag for them sometimes. Or they just don't feel like they wanna do it. I mean what can I say? I don't know why they do not come, maybe its also because of injury risk.

never know

Vince Carter has only had 1 all star game. I dont think he expected it to be that big. He probably just invited guys he really knew. Now that everyone has heard how big it is im sure more players come.

Member last year the first 3 players they named to the game were

Jamison
MOP
JYD

Im sure Stack, Matrix are just the start and there will be bigger names.
