Screw The Nets fans!

Now I am not a Nets fan but a big Vince Carter fan therefore I cheer for Vince which means I cheer for the team he plays for, which would be the Nets in this case. Now my beef with Nets fans is how they keep bashing Vince. Realistically he is the main reason why Nets made it to the playoffs last year. He is the main reason why Nets are at the top of the Atlantic this year. Sure J-kidd is the best player out there but Vince is Nets' offence. Without Vince, Nets would be the worst offensive team in the league. I really hope Vince gets injured and we'll see how far Nets will go with fan favorite RJ as the no.1 guy.

Superstars have higher expectations attached to their play.

As for the rest... nope.

Vince Carter, Mark Jackson and tons of people have said it before.

You have the ball in your hands at the end, if you make the plays you are the hero, you miss, you are the goat.

They expect it, what you expect people to not comment when those plays also lead to the 2nd of a huge win streak and the Nets undefeated record after leading going into the 4th?

Sure, very objective.

Now, we as nets fans have a right to bash carter for things such as:
taking too many fadeaways, 30ft shots with time winding down, and shot selection.

all because we want the best for the team.
you, on the other hand, want vince carter to get hurt because you as a carter fan want to spite the nets fans on this board for bashing vince carter?

so let's change "Screw the Nets fans" to "screw you" (no offense intended)
Just an advise to Mr Bold, you have got to learn to ignore it. Plain and simple, you wont be changing anyone's minds as they wont be changing yours either.

By the way please dont jinx Vince, this might be his first 80 game season.
It's probably Vinsane with another screen name.

If you where really cheering for the Nets you wouldn't be wishing you favorite player got injured just to prove a point.

Realistically he is the main reason why Nets made it to the playoffs last year.
Uh, no. You don't win games as one player, you win them as a team. If that wasn't true then VC would have put the Raptors in the playoffs every year.

He is the main reason why Nets are at the top of the Atlantic this year.
No again, see above.

Sure J-kidd is the best player out there but Vince is Nets' offence.
No again, RJ, Krstic, and Kidd help to carry the Nets offensivly and take turns in doing so. Look no further then RJ's 40 point game.

Without Vince, Nets would be the worst offensive team in the league.
Once again, no. I know it's hard to digest but the Nets have some other pretty good players who are not named Vince Carter and because of that they would still be a good team even if Carter dropped dead tomorrow..

I really hope Vince gets injured and we'll see how far Nets will go with fan favorite RJ as the no.1 guy.

Injuries play a big part in that arguement. Check Vince's win percentage as compared to losses in his career, am sure he has more wins than losses[/B]

Whats the probability that RJ will be getting 40 point games without Vince on the team and leading to wins.

Wrong, wrong, wrong. Sure they will score, but Vince is the most reliable scorer on the Nets. He is the only one that can effectively get a shot off whenever he wants to. There have been tons of times this season with Vince on the bench that they couldnt score, heck even the finals team found it hard to score. With Vince you have a very effective halfcourt offense.

Well Said and couldn't agree more
Except the part about Vince gettin injured
You are talking about someone who has to put up 20 shots to get 25 PPG. That's not efficient by any stretch of the imagination and the only season he's reliable is because he never stops throwing up shots, even ones he can't make.

Take those shots and put them in the hands of an efficient scorer (RJ for example) and not only do you have the points Carter scores but you will have shots left over for Krstic, Kidd, and the rest of the Nets players.
Shut the hellup mr Boner or Bold or whatever ur lame name is
Sure ur a vc fan
and u want to see him get injured
u selfish *******
(not offensive)

Mr. Bold doesn't really want for VC to get injured. He simply wanted to say that if vince wasn't on this team the offense would greatly suffer and some posters fail to realize that. So if vince did go down, missed some significant number of games and Nets would suddenly have hard times scoring and winning then maybe Vince would be a litte bit more appreciated. That's it, I guess he just couldn't express himself better.

Laughable, and this is where I can understand Mr Bold's frustration. Why not make RJ the focal point of the offense and see how efficient he will be? Vince was never a high percentage shooter, but he is still one of the premier guards in the league, and one of the few players in the league that an offense can be centered around. Can the same be said about RJ
Now I am not a Vince Carter fan but a big Nets fan therefore I cheer for the Nets which means I cheer for the the players on the team, which would be Vince Carter in this case. Now my beef with Vince Carter fans is how they keep bashing the Nets. Realistically the Nets organization is the main reason why Vince made it to the playoffs last year. They are the main reason why Vince Carter is at the top of the Atlantic this year. Sure J-kidd is the best player out there and is the reason for Vince's improved offence. Without the Nets, Vince would be on the worst offensive team in the league. I really hope Kidd and RJ get injured and we'll see how far Nets will go with Vince Carter all alone as the no.1 guy.
