    Does anyone think the Raptors should at least negotiate with the Sixers? I know its farfetched, but he could be a real help to this team. What do you think Colangelo's views are on this situation?

    I think he's got enough sense to realize you don't have enough to offer the Sixers.

    Bosh obviously isn't going anywhere, so you guys would have to give up basically everything of value, probably something like Bargnani, 3 1st Rounders, and Rasho's expiring. I don't even see how that benefits the team. Bosh and Iverson alone isn't gonna do it. The Raptors are in a re-building stage, there would simply be no use for him at his age.

    so you're suggesting to trade Rasho Nesterovic for Allen Iverson just because of the contract size evening off?lol

The original suggestion (rumour) was Fred, Calderon, Rasho, and Peterson and a 1st rounder, but it is unlikely we will find a replacement SF.

Either way I don't think Colangelo should make a run at Iverson. He knows what he's doing, and he's been doing a good job thus far putting together a team that he thinks will succeed in the future. This team is a few years from really doing any damage, so putting Iverson next to Bosh (with no supporting cast) really isn't going to help.

    God no, Brian has done a great job with this franchise we should try to stay right away.

    The craptors have nothing to offer the Sixers. It is as simple as that. If they made a three way trade of some kind then there might be a possibility, but I doubt it anyway.

    The craptors how creative... Last time I checked the Kings are 5th place in the Pacific. John Salmons is a joke and so is your front office for signing him.
