Source close to situation confirms that Vince Carter will sign a three-year deal with the Grizzlies.

Vince Carter had interest in returning to the Dallas Mavericks, but the two sides were far apart in contract talks.

Well this is unexpected, to say the least; and cheap, too.  Wow.  I'm surprised, because Carter has been such a great 6th man for the Mavericks, but I don't think that he's a starter anymore, so do you think he'll come off the bench in Memphis?  The Grizzlies desperately need more offense.  Now if only they replaced Tayshaun Prince with Jeff Green, backed up by Vince, they'd be a serious contender, imo.

Good for him. Get paid. I still recall the days when Carter/McGrady played together... What a crazy duo..

I thought Miller was signing a 2 year deal to the Nuggets? Or Hawks? I don't remember where I saw it, but it isn't the Cavs.

1999 Canada is flipping out right at the thought of Vinsanity jumping ship from Toronto to Vancouver.

Yes you are correct, thats what i meant to write was the nuggets, but i believe talks have stalled, I think he ends up signing with the cavs

Seems like a long contract for a perimeter player as old as Vince is. Not sure how well he holds up for duration of that deal. It is a good move for next season though.

I've read that the last year will be guaranteed for only $2m.

I've read that too.  This is more like a 2-year, $10 million deal paid out a little differently.
