let's talk trade dealine.. do the Raptors make any moves? I know Mo-Pete's name has been mentioned in trade rumors.. I wouldn't want to break up the chemistry right now.. Mo-Pete is night and day at home and away, but he's a vet who has made some big shots for us (Laker Game)..

Vince with the "Come on, MVP?" gesture is really why I will always hate him... Anyways, Raptor nation, I'm excited.. Screw the Atlantic, the east is wide open right now, with the exception of Detroit which will probably hold the #1 seed.. I think if we can avoid playing Miami in the first round we'll have a really good shot to get past the opening round.

You can tell Leo Reutins was really upset over how classless Vince Carter was. He dug up all the old dirt on carter saying how he quit on the team and throwing the towel on Bosh. Unbelievable. Leo was just about ready to choke a bitch.

I've never seen a former hometown player so hated. This is not the normal 'you demanded a trade' we hate you kind of heat. The fans were truly disgusted and was out for blood on every Carter possession. Seeing the player that Bosh has become the player that Carter is now is shocking.

Is there a more pathetic player in the league than Carter? Admitting to quiting on his own team while he was making max money and also tipping off plays to the opposing team during a game? Just wow.

In other news, another fine game for Bargnani!!!
2 years folks.

GKA,
I assumed there would be no salary caps implication in the Parker deal.

As for Bosh guys who I would trade him for.
LeBron, Wade, Dirk, Yao, Duncan, Kobe

Ignoring salary cap.

I still think Raptors don't win as many games with VC in place of AC.

Bryan Colangelo is seriously turning into the Billy Beane of basketball.

I'm really kind of confused as to why Mo's on the trading block. He's been around through thick and thin, and it doesn't make sense to drop a presence like that during a good run.

I wouldn't trade Bosh for Kobe either.

T-God · #49 02-15-2007, 02:16 AM

GKA, I'd answer no for both. I wasn't that high on Parker earlier in the year, but he's grown on me by playing some pretty sick defense against alot of the big stars in the league aswell as adding some points every game. Vince is obvioulsy a disaster waiting to happen for any team. Not sure if I'd trade Pape Sow for Vince.

And as for Bosh, there are guys who are arguably better players than him, but he's a guy you can really get behind. He doesn't have off-the-court problems and he plays hard every night. I don't think I'd trade him for anyone. If I had to choose someone, it would be Dirk.

Also, we have the best announcers of any team/any sport. Agree/disagree?

I'm guessing it's because they're paying a bench player a starter's salary. I think Mo could start for alot of teams, and he could make a good case for starting in T.O., but if the coaches disagree then you have to make some salary moves. That said, I hope he stays.
