1/2 Man , 1/2 Amazing

So a few weeks back I had blogged about how Vince Carter and the Disney crew were a disappointment so far this season. Their record is great and they got all over teams earlier in the year but as of late they've looked lost and you can tell their not gelling as a unit. Losing Hedo, who fit so well with their team last season, set them back and the arrival of Vince Carter, really hadn't looked like such a good deal, well until last night.

Vince has been a slump all season long and has been nagging with injuries on and off this season, and just hasn't looked like the guy who can give you 25/6/6 a night. He's been struggling with his shot, has got caught up heavily relying on the 3, as per Orlando's style and he seems unsure whether he should be VC or just plain ole Vince. No matter what anyone says about the guy, you can't knock two facets of his game: (1) he can light anyone up for a quick 30 and (2) he is a consummate team player, so much so that it gets frustrating at times.

Last night, he went off and I think Orlando figured it out yesterday. Get the ball in his hands, Dwight set that screen and everyone else get the f**k outta the way. My favorite Raptor of all time, looked as if he was rockin the purple in 2000. He had a decent first half, he was shooting well, looked confident and then in the second half things got nasty. If you did not watch the game, you should know it shall be known as the "come up....son". 3rd Q was all VC, he put his head down and at one point scored 12 straight, and in the 4th he showed the whole repertoire, in and out and just burned a NO squad that had these guys on the fence for the entire game. 1/2 man 1/2 amazing was all Reggie was sayin on the commenting side, Marv was all over Vince saying, "his career high is 54, and 51...looks like he'll break it..."

Bottom line, with 47 seconds to go, the Magic wrapped this game up and NO went for the foul, TO and quick shot strategy, Vince opted to in bound the ball instead of receiving and being sent to the line for some easy buckets. He could have finished with at least 54-56 and in the last 10 seconds was dribbling the ball out when everyone in the arena including the opposition was down for him gettin his fiddy....but he shook his head and said no, no, no with a grin.

He just wanted to prove a point, something he's done for his whole career, cause just when you think he's a flake, a loser, punk, waste of whatever (I've heard so much shit talked about this guy its unbelievable) he shows you why he is still one of the deadliest offensive threats this league has ever seen. Your playing with Dwight Howard, Rashad Lewis, Jameer Nelson, and you drop 48. Yah that's kind of nice.

This performance can translate into confidence for him, the magic and that means trouble for the rest of the east. These guys start putting it together from now, and get momentum into the playoffs with Vince being VC, like he said in 2000, "its over..."
I called it when they made this trade that the Magic will be in the finals, that team is just stacked and as good as the cavs are, and Lebron aka Kan-EZ is, how you gonna stop 4 all stars in a 7 game series? You don't....

I'm out, and if after you read this and your like, "he's still a loser...etc etc" or my favorite
are those Raptor fans who were riding his dick while he was here and think he's an ass now....here's some advice:

Eat a fat d*ck hahahahahah.

Peace.
