It isn't? for an 17/18 year old that's amazing. and the only starting NBA SG who was just as good as him at the same Age was Kobe. For a NBA SG it's not that special... But he's a version of Kobe who is in NBA Shape. Kobe was a pile of bones, and Kobe didn't pass the ball, that's why they say LeBron is better

Athletics is pretty much all vince had comming out of college .. and a 37 inch vertical =\.. and look what he did his first 3 seasons of the NBA Rookie of the year then in 2 years took a team that was rather bad .. and got them to one shot away from conferance finals.. =\...
Carter is not a well rounded player... fan favorite, that's it. He's good, but athletic ability alone isn't gonna make you the next Mike.

Actually, he is a lot more well rounded than when he played in college.

He just didn't have to be well rounded in college, everyody knows Jamison was the leader at UNC back then. He was just a role player... Now he's he leader, and he had to step up his game, but he's still no great defender or even a 29ppg player.

That wasnt my point ... hes better than most were at his age and hes got an NBA body which no superstar that came outta highschool did in recent history.. tmac kobe garnett... all were twigs..

Maybe imr eally ignorant but i think carter was a pretty well rounded player.. every year he would improve on one thing.. first 2 seasons all he did was dunk... so people were sayin that he was nothin but a flashy dunker.. so he sais fine.. they think im nothin more than flashy dunks and the next year he has like a 46% fieldgoal average 41% from three point range and he had his flashy dunks and 27 ppg and 6 rebounds and like 5 assists.. that was his best season..
Then that one year in the olympics ever since he jumped over a 7'2 frenchman its been nothin but down hill.. If i remember correctly he led the US team in points to win the gold? Next season he started out great and hurt his knee in a san antonio game and was garbage ever since then..
THrough the rest of the season he did nothing but shoot jumpers
People started sayin he couldnt play defense at all and he somewhat stepped it up at the end of this season he got like 3 possible game tieing blocks..

Yeah.. that rant is over...
Im a vince fanboy..
