bigdog17k Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Just wondering what you guys thought of the Carter trade now that the season is ending, and we've gotten to see him with this team for a while now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Make It Naaaashty Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I think it was a good trade, and they can go deep into the playoffs because of this trade like they did last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I think it only made them better honestly. You guys are my pick to win the East actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldChili Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I liked it from the start. He had an alright start to the season, then he hit a low during January. Since then he's been taking smarter shots and contributing more. Just look at his stats over the last two months. February 18.6 ppg3.8 rpg3.2 apg51.5% FG51.1% 3P76.2% FT March 19.7 ppg3.6 rpg3.8 apg50.4% FG46.2% 3P87.9% FT If he can keep up this productivity going into the playoffs the Magic will go far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 We will trade you Hedo for Carter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riot Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 Was a fan from the start, thought he was an improvement over Hedo. Things got pretty bad in January but it's great that he's fitting in now so close to the playoffs. I expected about 18/4/4 out of him and that's actually not far off from what he's given us. He's at 17/4/3 and he's only averaging 31mpg so I don't think he's dropped off as bad as people think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 I can't imagine what his teams could've been like if he had a big man like Dwight before he got injured. Dude used to be the best player in the league IMO. No one could stop him before he got injured in Toronto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poe Posted March 23, 2010 Report Share Posted March 23, 2010 (edited) Though Vince is a more natural score and a more talented player, I still feel that Turkoglu was the better fit. It wasn't as bad of a move that I initially thought, but as far as the SG and SF positions go with how well it fit this team,it's Lee and Turk > Vince and Barnes. Despite this, the Magic can still make a push to the ECF, and maybe the Finals again. Reason being is because of having much more depth in their bench than before, and a now healthy Jameer Nelson. Last year they didn't have Williams, Barnes, Bass, or Anderson, and keep in mind the improvements that Redick and Gortat have made. I think that has been the main key, not as much Vince Carter, though they do need him to keep playing efficiently in order to succeed.
