Vince Carter came into the game. The fans’ response was filled with boos (surprise surprise) and he responded with this dunk. The ironic part is that DeMar DeRozan was often compared to Carter, and VC just dunked on him at the age of 36.
UPDATE – Dirk Nowitzki will not play. The Toronto Raptors are back at it again tonight as they hope to sweep the seasons series against the Dallas Mavericks tonight.
