--------
Sebastian Telfair shared his thoughts on Gilbert Arenas’ controversial take on Vince Carter. Arenas suggested Carter could have reached Michael Jordan’s level, claiming he had the ideal physical attributes but was “too nice.” Telfair partially disagreed, defending Carter’s career, which spanned two decades. He argued Carter had one of the best careers in the NBA, highlighted by his athletic longevity and consistent competitive spirit. Telfair emphasized that Carter’s success couldn’t have been achieved without dedication, dismissing the notion of him being lazy. However, Telfair did agree with Arenas on one point: Carter’s demeanor. He acknowledged that Carter missed the tenacious, killer instinct of players like Jordan, Kobe Bryant, and LeBron James. Yet, Telfair believes Carter maximized his talents, arguing that not everyone needs to be ruthless to achieve greatness.

At the end of the day Vince became a hall of famer, made over $200 million in NBA earnings, North Carolina legend, and will likely have his jersey retired by two NBA teams (Nets and Raptors), and already has his number retired by North Carolina. Lastly, Vince will keep a job related to the NBA because he's a good ambassador for the league with him being known a "Nice" guy.

Dont mention nets finals because JKidd was the leader of that team
Bassy deffy needs to be on a platform where he can share his insights about the league and about basketball in general on a daily basis. He knows what he’s talking about, he has the experience, he’s not afraid to speak truth to power and he was one of the nicest 12yo to 18yo players of all time. I’m not even from NYC and I remember hearing about him when he was in middle school…..Most importantly he’s entertaining! And At the end of the day that’s what it’s all about right? “Entertainment” keep doin ur thing king!

Theres no way somebody stays in The NBA as Long as Vince without working hard
Loved watching Vince Carter (especially with the Raptors and the Nets) and what he brought to the game. Thank you to Telfair for giving Vince much respect. Jordan was Jordan. Vince was Vince. To me, the only thing that threw Vince off course was that missed three in the playoffs against Iverson. If that shot would have gone in, things might have been a little different. Another thing that had an effect, was when T-Mac left for Orlando, the disagreements with Toronto management, and not playing during some of his injuries. Jordan didn't give a fuck about no one. Vince was a gentleman to everyone. Jordan is the face of modern basketball. Vince Carter, with his athleticism and showmanship, is modern basketball. Vince Carter is deserving of the NBA Hall of Fame.

It takes more than TALENT to make it at a professional level! You have to have lots of self discipline,financial discipline, and social discipline that comes with AGE,EXPERIENCE, & MATURITY!!! that’s why 4 years of COLLEGE is supposed to prepare these young guys for the Pro’s ! 1-2 years isn’t enough! But when you have the talent and can’t afford to miss out on big money in the nba, and don’t want to risk any serious injuries while playing in College then these players rush into the professional ranks without realizing these factors in life !
I like hearing Bassy talk ball. I think he'd be a decent coach
Calling BS on this - Vince Carter played 22 seasons and the last 8 or so he was a role player and a good one at that

I agree wit Bassy
Gilbert played in the nba & says he knows what he talking but other nba players never agrees with anything he says😂
Vince is a legend, making all the money. But Gilbert isn't lying. He just had a nice upbringing and wasn't a dog.
Not if he wasn’t lazy, Gilbert Arenas said if he had the mind state of Kobe than he would’ve been greater
To be real, both those dudes couldn't even hold Vince's jock strap. Gilbert Arenas son is a better player already than he ever was.
Vinsanity!
Vince could do everything, he didn’t have the drive though. One of the greatest talents ever.
Vince Carter a legend crazy vertical
Vlad just exposed himself in lying saying that Gil said Carter didn't have work ethic. Gil said I'm not saying that and Vlad come back saying "I don't wanna put words in his mouth after he already did.
I don’t think he maximized his ability. VC dropped off too quickly. He definitely should have been a 10 top player all time
Vince was too nice and Sebastian was too dumb…..
Vlad confused it they said that about tmac not vince carter, tmac didnt really go hard at practices cuz he was so gifted
he need to just go on and start a fuhccn flashbacc clips Flad station.
Vince never dominated a single season in the NBA. With all his tools he should have 1 mvp
Nasty hate
It was pretty sad how Covid ruined Vince Carter's farewell season, he really deserved to have a proper sendoff game.
No soy un hater de Vince pero, antes de Vince, NY Nets llegó a 2 finales en 3 años...con Vinsanity, Jkidd and RJ como mucho llegaron a semis de conferencia... dicho esto, el mejor dunker de la historia para mí...
I don’t think ppl understand the SHAQ factor …any of those elite wings coulda got three rings if they played with shaq and was just as good as Kobe ….Kobe just felt like he had more to prove and the other dudes kinda fell back …
Mike Beasley is who I would say never lived up to the elite potential he had!
If Vince Carter had Kobe or MJ mentality, he would've been top 5 of all time. Mid career imo 🤷🏾♂️
I agree , i said the samething..dint agree with Gilbert arenas take on vince carter vince just dint had another superstars @ him..he had tracy but tracy left..he had jason kid but shaq was in the way..vince just need better players @ him..

Not hating on Canada by any means, but I've always said that. That's why his cousin, T-Mac, fought like hell to get out of there. They were basically playing in Siberia at that time. Now, I will say this. Those two guys in particular, and including Chris Bosh, really paved the way for how dominant Canadian basketball has gotten. Canada will win a medal in this Olympics or the next one, and that medal will have Vince Carter & co. fingerprints all over it.
Vince should should have been just as good as Kobe or better
Rasengan or Chidori?
He lacked the mentality is all, looks like a guy who just enjoyed playing the game and just so happened to be good at everything 😂
For me it’s KD
So I wanna ask u guys a question. Pls answer honestly. If Tim Duncan didn’t win 5 chips, would u say he didn’t win because he was too nice?
I disagree wholeheartedly!!!!
I would say Vince Carter and Blake griffin
I doubt that Vince, would be coached by an all time great Dean Smith, at a world renowned university, then put in 18-20 seasons as a professional, while being "Lazy"...😅
Yall know Gil just be talkin out his neck
He competes against Kobe iverson mcgrady Paul pierce you saying he missing personality
What does “too nice” means? I didn’t see him buddy-buddy w/ everyone, I never saw him back down from an altercation. Because he didn’t cry to the refs for every thing?
Y’all remember when Vince jumped over dude head? That wasn’t nice lol
