Vince Carter became the seventh Nets player to have his number retired, something he labeled as "insane." "It is an honor to be up there with you gentlemen," he said.

Carter's No. 15 will be retired at halftime of Brooklyn's game against the Heat. His jersey was retired by the Toronto Raptors on Nov. 2 against the Atlanta Hawks, another former team of Carter's. His Nets jersey retirement was announced back in September, so fans and the organization have been anticipating this moment for a long time.
