Vince Carter is way better

[mandypants02]

@jesclip26 are you really comparing blake griffin to jordan and kobe?

[jesclip26]

not even kobe or mj could get the clippers to the playoffs this year with that supporting cast and all the injuries and especilly being the worst jump shooting team with very little hussle excluding Blake. They need to surround him wit at least a few c level players.Not sign players like ryan gomes and randy foye . At least Jordan and Kobes first year they were surounded by descent players

@libetta I have to disagree with that, due to the different positions they play and its 2 different NBA eras. I can't compare either one of them, but when Griffin starts hitting some game winners, buzzer beaters, big shots, get some playoff apperances, then it might be arguable, but as of now,he is what Carter was when he entered the NBA, and thats just a highlight reel. Even Carter as an underachiever scored over 20,000 points, which Griffin should do easily, if he stays healthy.

@GuyanezeComedy

i agree. i admit i am largely disappointed at him not being able to get a spot in the playoffs (mj had his 1st playoffs in his 1st yr). maybe he still has a lot to learn in carrying a team. though he is a more complete, well-rounded and has better skills than vc overall, for sure

[GuyanezeComedy]

@libetta That's because he's an athletic freak and nothing more, you can't teach athleticism. As of now he's only playign based on this athletic ability, just like Carter did, but if he doesn't learn how to play to his fullest potential, its another wasted star.

@GuyanezeComedy

give you that credit, no shit. carter's vertical ain't excellent either. the uncreative lebron james has seriously better vertical than vc. are you kidding me? griffin's got tremendous body control for his size. reminds me a bit of kobe, twisting his body in mid-air. a rare feat for any big man

[GuyanezeComedy]

@libetta They were better, but Carter did his in ONE CONTEST in 2000. All that couldve been done was for players to some how make it better which they did. The same way Dr. J, Dominique, and Jordan paved the way for others to do showtime dunks, is the same way Carter did for further dunks competition. Whether a couple or Richardson or Griffin dunks were better than Carter's, he had the best contest because of all the dunks he did. Griffin is 6'10 with a good vertical, not impressive.

@GuyanezeComedy

that doesn't change the way his elbow dunk is a whole lot better than vc's plain one. rather, richardson's between the legs is lexus compared to vc's toyota

[GuyanezeComedy]

@libetta LMFAO, no props and straight up nasty dunks in ONE dunk competition, and thats why his dunk contest is the best so far. Griffin is a big man so his dunks are more overrated than anything and Richardson is a poor mans Carter when it comes to dunking and overall game.
