can anyone explain why vince is not another addition to the All Star Game ?

[MrSink]

???

[GzaTheGenius]

Probably because Its 2019

[ikid2groove415]

Wade and dirk had better careers Case closed - people never took Vince serious - he’s knowing for his dunks - but had a very good career

[jjgold]

Wade very good this year

[MrSink]

Wade very good this year

yeah and Dirk the poorest this year from above 3 .

Wade and dirk had better careers Case closed

this I agree

[thomorino]

The additions are guys they know are retiring after this year, Carter hasn't said he's retiring yet.

[shadymcgrady]

Carter had a better career than Wade numbers wise. Very similar in their primes.

Everyone would be saying Vince hands down better if he was awarded 100 free throws a game in the playoffs like Wade was his asterisk title year with Shaq

Guys couldn't even look at Wade without getting whistled for a foul

Stern knew how to manufacture knock off Michael Jordans for revenue that's for sure

Agree, Carter never played with anyone great in his prime for very long, Mcgrady was too young and didn't stay long with Carter. If Carter in his prime had Shaq he would have gone deep in the playoffs.

[jtoler]

maybe because those guys have said this is their last year Vince said he's like 90% sure this is his last year lol

Wade is a way better player then carter

He was one jump shot away against Iverson the yr Philly went to the finals. Although to be fair I'm not sure they would have beaten the big 3 in Milwaukee afterwards

Shaq was already way past his prime when he join Miami - wade carry the heat in that 2006 championship- ridiculous 2 think carter is better then wade - carter Doesn’t even play defense - wade is much more balance on offense and defense

Dallas would have swept Miami in the Finals if they officiated the series fairly and Shaq wasn't way past his prime, it was just a couple years after he left LA. Carter in his prime was better than Wade, but Carter had major injuries. Wade couldn't get out of the first round without Shaq before Lebron came.

[ikid2groove415]

How many times carter got out of the first round? Wade is a assassin- you just lost basketball credibility saying carter is better - and once again - wade carry the heat in 2006- not Shaq

Wade couldn't get out of the first round of the playoffs without Shaq or Lebron, Carter carried the Raptors before he had injuries. You have no credibility, Wade couldn't get out of the first round without another superstar. Wade had the better career, but when both were in their prime Carter was better.

What makes carter better? His flashy dunks ? Wade couldn’t be guarded in his prime and he plays defense - ya Lebron didn’t win a ring until he join wade

[shadymcgrady]

ikid calm down, there's this thing called opinions and aholes. Everyone has got them but they aren't always shared

Judging by morino's posts and views he has definitely played organized sports on some form of competitive level

Can't say the same for alot of the overweight so called know it all's that couldn't climb the stairs without getting winded. Not saying you just people on here in general

Nobody that understands basketball thinks carter is a winning basketball player - first thing that comes up is dunks

[ikid2groove415]

Can’t believe I’m arguing about this topic? Wade in his prime was just a notch below Lebron - carter is no where close

[shadymcgrady]

Yes Wade was 1b and LeBron 1a in their primes

However Carter was well past his prime during that timeframe

Carter was regarded as the best wing amongst Kobe, Iverson and mcgrady during his prime

It's close, I don't think Wade is significantly better. Also Wade didn't play defense at all, sure he had the ability but he never exercised it with regularity.

There's a big difference between being able to and actually doing it. By your logic Rasheed Wallace is a top ten big of all time

[thomorino]

You don't understand basketball if you think Wade was ever close to Lebron in his prime. Lebron took a very mediocre Cavs roster to the finals 2 seperate time, Wade wouldn't have gotten that team out of the first round in his prime. Carter was compared to Kobe in his prime, Wade was never did enough to compare to all-time greats. Carter if he had stayed healthy his whole career could have put up numbers like Kobe.

[MinnesotaFats]

That 3 or 4 year span where Wade averaged nearly 30 ppg and 2 steals per game put him a notch (a big solid notch all be it) below Lebron. Don't forget Wade shot over 50% from field during this span as well!

Carter was always a 2nd teir guy, always guys ahead of him in the league at his position, even in his prime

Lack of D and poor fg% hurt Carter argument

Jerry stackhouse was once compare 2 Jordan ? So was many others - this is a losing debate for you - hold the L

Wade averaged over 30 once, he never averaged over 28 in any other year.

[thomorino]

Carter's best years in his prime were better than Wade's, they shot around the same FG percentage but Carter was always 35% or better from 3 point range, Wade is a career 29% 3 point shooter. Carter was the better player.

You think stats tells everything ? Wake up man - wade was a assassin in his prime - carter is all flash with dunks- and wade was never a 3 point shooter - he attack’s the basket and put pressure on the defense

[IBetYou]

Just the sentimental BS from Silver we've come to expect. Wade & Nowitzki played each other twice in the NBA finals whereas Carter never went to the finals. That's probably it. If you include Carter then maybe there's a 4th guy snubbed. Nowitzki hasn't said this is his final btw.

[sweethook]

to busy he may be thugin

[Bedrockfred]

Because Vince is 50

[rm18]

Vince will be in the dunk contest

[ikid2groove415]

Vince will be in the dunk contest

Not sure how people can think carter is better then wade ? When he’s most knowing for dunks lol- laughable

Carter was a better shooter and much more physically dominant in his prime, laughable to compare Wade to other number 1 options in the hall of fame

[marcoloco]

how far did Wade go in playoffs without Shaq or Lebron?

[MrSink]

Vince will be in the dunk contest

haha

[LT Profits]

Isn't adding one geezer per conference enough?
