Antawn Jamison And Vince Carter in the NBA

For three years, Antawn Jamison and Vince Carter were teammates at the University of North Carolina. On Draft Day they were drafted back-to-back with the fourth and fifth picks in the NBA Draft. Their lives became further intertwined that night when they were traded for one another.     Now Jamison is a rookie with the Golden State Warriors. Carter is more than 3,000 miles away, with the Toronto Raptors. Nevertheless, their friendship endures via the occasional phone call, and on NBA.com. Throughout the season, the former Tar Heels will share their trials and triumphs of their first season in the NBA.

"Coach Smith was like a second father to me. He taught me a lot about basketball, and a lot about being a man. Many coaches promised a lot of playing time, Coach Smith promised me that out of school, I'd have a successful job."
