No. It's time to stop with the place where aging all-stars go to die. C's need youth. Not that easy to come by with the cap situation I know.

I wouldn't let a tanker like Carter pay me to play on my team...Unless I'm trying to tank the season.

Anybody who brags about tanking for a trade should be banned from the league.

No, our MLE needs to go to a center or PF, not a another used up vet looking for one last contract.

Beyond that, the tankster is the antithesis of what a team vying for a championship would want.

I'm no VC fan, but if the choice is between him or Delonte as first guard off the bench...that's not even a choice.

Right.  gotta go with Delonte. 

I wouldn't even sign him for the vet minimum.

True although I wouldn't really want him for 2 years. There is no doubt in my mind that he would an absolutely fantastic bench player. He's always asked to be a top player on a team. In Orlando he was basically supposed to be their Kobe or Pierce or something next to Dwight. He's not a superstar and shouldn't be expected to be one but off the bench? That would be some firepower

Half-man, half-boring: Vince Carter would like to bowl professionally

Leave a comment Yes, but would he try for all 10 frames?

Vince Carter, the former human highlight reel and current bench player for the Phoenix Suns has stated that when it comes time for him to stop his playing days (which these days consist of dunking occasionally, clearly exaggerating his injuries, and seeming genuinely uninterested in the game of basketball), he would like to maybe give professional bowling a shot. Carter fancies himself as quite the serious pin-jockey and when he bowls, he bowls for keeps.

“When I go bowling, I go bowling. I’m not one for the leisure bowling, like the Lucky Strike bowling to go have drinks and fun. I go to bowl. I can go by myself. I have a bunch of bowler friends who go bowl and have friends at the different alleys that I bowl. I can go there and bowl fours by myself.”
Well, with the NBA potentially facing the same fate of the currently locked-out NFL once this season ends (which for the non-playoff bound Suns, is fast approaching), Carter may be able to get a start on his super-serious second-career sooner than he was anticipating.

“That’s something I’d probably like to try to do once I’m done playing. When I was bowling a lot, I was up there. I’m nothing great. I’m like a 172 average. I watch the bowling matches when I come on TV. Some of my boys are like, “Hell no.” I just enjoy it. I like golf but bowling would be first 100 percent.”
172? If VC wants to bowl professionally, he’s certainly better start practicing…yeahhhh, like that’ll happen.

Well, there’s always golf. Even with little to no practice at that, he couldn’t be any worse than Jerry Rice.
