    Naa, I think it's just a season mix, but it reflects the fact the good days of VC are long gone. But it's really well done.

    Why do people still call him this? He's only had two years out of thirteen in which he's missed significant time due to injury (22 games in '01-'02, 39 games in '02-'03). He's actually been a pretty durable player.

    It's not because of his his durability. It's about his motivation. Just ask any Toronto fan.

    Dude proved again that he is the best mixmaker on this planet (just behind Yoyo and his Hakeem mix of course)

    What's crazy is that he has had better career than his cousin.

    Ask me, I'm a Raptors fan. VC has taken our franchise further than anybody that has ever put on a Raptors jersey. For that, part of me will always remain a fan. He is also the one that put Toronto on the map, even though his relationship with us ended with bitterness and betrayal, I will always remember the good things he did for the franchise.

    Not all Toronto fans are assholes that can't get over things.

    That is extremely true, sadly...
    Except for some of the most ridiculous gamewinners I have ever seen.

    It is because of durability. Charles Barkley coined the nickname in the 2003 All-Star Game because Vince had missed a bunch of games that season and the season the before. After that year, Vince has never missed more than 9 games in a season.

    Wow, this degenerated fast. There was no reason to be negative in this thread.
