He will always be remembered for his awesome battery and assault/defense.

All you do is watch the Lakers because Vince Carter has a jumpshot. He still has bounce left in his legs. He adjusted his game to compensate forwhat he lost. He rarely takes it to the basket anymore. What games are you watching?Originally Posted by westcoastsfinest

word...vince carter is an incredible athlete but he relies on it too much...he hasnt adjusted his game to fit his age since he has lost a bounce or two...

%**% this dirty **% player.
I appreciate defense, but he lost all credibility in my book for his dirty plays. It can clearly be seen in the vid that he intentionally hurts/tries to hurtother players - I don't see how anyone can still respect him after that.

Co-Sign, especially this part, I don't get people sometimes.
I love playing defense, and Bowen is someone who did that very well, I admire him for that. Except for some of the things he did with bad intentions, but yougot to respect him anyways.

VC over time has relied more on the jumpshot because of the fact he has gotten older. What SG hasn't done this? Jordan has, Kobe has, name a SG who hasaged... they've done it.
As for being an elite player... he was & still is. Look up the stats. How you average 20, 5, & 4 this past season & nto be elite is beyond me.Averging 23, 5 & 4 for his career isn't elite?
Judging an elite player you have to look at numbers, & his are there. While VC's team success hasn't been great his whole career, that doesn'tmean he autimatically isn't an elite player.
I'd consider him a complete player. Early in his career, he was a dunker... & known for his dunking (obviously). Over time, his numbers & teamsuccess have gotten better. While the dunking slowly lessened over time, the all around game developed more.
Anyway, as for Bowen... Never was a fan. His retirement doesn't matter much to me.

I swear, people on this board talk about the NBA being soft and going back to the 80's (as if they've grown up watching those games), yet when one guy basically comes from the same mold, they call him dirty and hate of him? Make up your damn minds already.

Did this clown really say that VC is considered elite because of his dunking?
Anyway, I'm glad to see Bruce Bowen retire. One of my least favorite NBA players.
