VC is one of my favorite b-ball players of all-time, but he never really cared to be THE guy. He was cool just being one of the guys on the team. He definitely had the talent, I guess he just didn't have the desire. In his final days with Toronto, he was cool with coming off the bench and playing with the second team.
i think this was obvious at unc.
as i felt vc really never showed enough.
also,....i used to feel dean would shackle players a bit,....
yet in vince's case he never worked hard enough to digest.
what hurdle dean purposefully propped up in his way.
so he could vault over to grow as a player.
for later on to resource when he was a pro.
plus vince never seemed to give a damn either.
vc was just content wih what vc initially was, and that seemed to be fine to him.
yet he had athletic/physical talent to be much more.
like last year's best dunk, in the whole season.
did not count because vc slammed it through on, a busted play.
stopped in mid play from a early ref called foul on the play.
this dude vc continues the play after the whistle and three sixty dunks a between the leg jam, in the stopped play traffic.
then the rest of the game pretty much does nuffin after shooting his freethrows.
that type of display and later gameplay is telling of vc's career as a play.
does a bunch when it counts for nuffin. then doesn't care past his highlights no matter how they occur.
mj was never like that,..and to stack's credit. stack tried more with less ability and social graces.
to at least put forth more effort, than the more brilliantly talented vc.
