Vince Carter and Alonzo Mourning were once friends—until Vince threw down one of the most iconic dunks in NBA history in 2005, posterizing Zo in a moment that still gets talked about today. But after that dunk, things took a turn. Vince reveals how long they went without speaking after the infamous play, and Alonzo shares his side of the story too.

Vince's career with Toronto is so funny. Like we hated him for so long and then finally like angry kids at their parents that finally grow up and get it we just kind of said jk we love you Vince and now every other thing has Vince Carter on it.

Like we have a commercial right now where Vince talks about his Dunk and how it was for Canada and the whole Country and he did that for us yad yadayada its so funny to see the complete 100% turn around on Vince especially in these last few years. I love it man dude only played in Toronto for like 3 years and we are basically sizing up the statue right now after retiring his jersey and shit.

Watching thunder lose last night was orgasmic bliss.. nonstop 3 point attempts and misses (probably 20%) when they had a 102-80 lead at the start of the 4th.. Just score some points next time dipshits, game is already put away

Fred VanVleet is nearing a return. But even without their starting point guard I find this interesting...

The Houston Rockets are 14-2 this season when they have at least two days of rest in between games.
The Houston Rockets are 9-0 and undefeated this season when Jalen Green scores 30 points or more.

The Rockets beat the red-hot Bucks tonight, 100-97. After a much needed two days of rest.
Improve to 36-22. Still in that 4 vs. 5 matchup with the Lakers. That would be a fun series.

Also the Suns lost again! 27-31. 11th in the West and currently in the NBA Lottery.
Rockets will soon swap 2025 first-round picks with them. I can't wait for June 25.
I expect the Rockets to trade that pick. Unless it's #1 overall. Hello, Cooper Flagg.

The Houston Rockets are in a prime position to make two blockbuster trades this summer.
But we need to see this year's playoffs first. I still have my eyes set on the 2026 NBA Finals.

Who you picking up?

Whichever disgruntled superstar becomes available. Devin Booker, Ja Morant and Trae Young are intriguing.
I've even seen Zion Williamson's name being mentioned. But people say Zion is lazy and fat. Not an ideal fit.

In the end I think Kevin Durant makes more sense. We can acquire him without giving up our top three players.

Kevin Durant may be old but he's still a top 6 scorer in the NBA. Shooting over 53% and 40% from threes.
He can still create his own shot with his great length. Durant is elite at all the things the Rockets are lacking.

I think Alperen Sengun, Jalen Green, Amen Thompson and Kevin Durant could win an NBA Title next year.
Assuming the Rockets can piece together a decent bench. Would still need to find another veteran point guard.

I think the Houston Rockets are wise to "go for it" next year. Try to win the 2026 NBA Finals. Accelerate everything this summer.

Not this guy. Vince can still frig off, more than ever even. Giving Drake big props during his jersey retirement was so lousy....
Dude went from angsty ass punk to teacher's pet now.

The North remembers.

He was in Toronto for 7 seasons, basically 1/3 of his career, but even more really considering he was just sticking around to stick around the last handful of years....
