?I won't let you down.  I promise.?  These were the words spoken as Vince Carter turned to Nets owner Bruce Ratner and team president Rod Thorn.

I thank both you guys for bringing me here," Carter said Wednesday. "I won't let you down.  I promise."

All of this took place at Vince Carter?s introductory news conference on Wednesday.  Mr. Carter has yet to play for his new team as he is still nursing a sore Achilles tendon.
