Around SBN: Holy War Week Brings out the Worst in Fans

The Solution to the Warriors' Small Forward Woes... Vinsanity!

Whether you're a Mike Dunleavy fan or a Mickael Pietrus fan, there's no way around the fact that the Warriors really struggled at the Small Forward spot last season.The question now is what should they do about it.

I say wait one year. Why?

A former 1st round draft pick of the Warriors nearly 10 years ago can opt out of his contract after this season and become a free agent. This guy is half-man half-amazing. He solves ALL of the Warriors' Small Forward issues and could LAUNCH them back into the playoffs.

Who is this amazing swingman I am referring to?

Some serious deep Tea-Bagging!

This looks like something only Thunder can do... with a trampoline.

Vince: "Play in the Bay? Man, that's a FANTASTIC idea! They don't feed the dogs people food there!"

Vince: "Can I play for the Warriors? Pretty please!"

Vince's old coach said 2 points is 2 points because he couldn't dunk. What do you think Monty would say about Vince's 2 points?

The thought of bringing Vinsanity to the Bay kind of brings a tear to your eye doesn't it?

Even Adam Morrison is teary-eyed about Vince in the Bay.

Actually, I think I'm crying because the Warriors drafted Vince Carter in 1998 and actually traded him away on draft day...

This one belongs in the rafters at the Arena!

And if our beloved Warriors can't find a way to bring the artist formerly known as Air Canada to the Warriors, then there's always plan B.

As long as he keeps drinking Sprite, Grant Hill only needs one ankle to be an All Star. Now THAT'S skill.

VC without J-Kidd
I wonder if Vince Carter would have the type of impact we'd all want here.  Did Vince Carter purposely dog it towards the end of his time in Toronto or has Jason Kidd made that much of an impact on his game?  Interesting to get peoples thoughts on this.

a little of a, a little of b
Vince was hurt in Toronto and seems to mostly be over that, but he appeared to have given up.  Kidd's influence on others is also powerful and he's benefited.

Having Vince and Jrich here would make the Warriors into Dunkapolza. Heck, Barons arms would get tired throwing up all those alley-ops.

As for Vinces "effort" in Toronto, if you watched him play sometimes he would just take over the game Kobe style, but only when he wanted to. It would be unfair to over knock Vince for this considering the lack of talent around him. With the Nets he doesn't have to do it himself. jKidd makes everyone around him better. Baron has this abilty to but only when he wants to.

It would be a great pickup but I imagine he is going to be asking for megabucks or going to a team that has a chance to win a championship.
