The Raptors would acquire Alonzo Mourning, Eric Williams, Aaron Williams and two first round draft picks in exchange for Carter. According to those same sources, the talks have moved to the point that they could be finalized before the end of the day. </div> Link
damn, I was just about to make this thread but you beat me to it... I actually like this deal. We don't get a star on the level as Vince in return but this solves our front court woes and will help Bosh develop into the type of player we've been hoping for. The 2 first round draft picks will definitely help us out in the future. If we can't get Magloire, I say Babcock should jump on this one.
the shareef trade keeps looking better and better i hate this trade. although i like aaron williams, alonzo still has too long and too much money left on his contract. he's still a huge question health wise, and it would just be another "hakeem deal". he could retire in a week and we'd be stuck with his contract eric williams is alright i guess....i can think of 100 utility guys id rather have this is just disgracefull...god i dont want this to happen. i want vince out of here as bad as anyone....but not this bad
Chad Ford was just on the Chuck Swirsky Show, and the last question asked by Chuck was "Do you think this deal will go down?", Chad said he was confident that it would go down.
They already agreed to it, according to epsn they r jsut waiting for league approvals... omfg...i thought we would package jalen along with vince....this is the worst trade ever
nooooooooooo, nooooooooo, nooooooooo, Babcock what are you thinking???? We get two scrubs and Mourning whose career was over a year ago. The draft picks aren't that low too. No way, i can't believe what im seein.
its officail....carters gone http://www.tsn.ca/nba/news_story.asp?id=108372 Site Map ? Raptors trade Carter to Nets TSN.ca Staff with ESPN files 12/17/2004 Vince Carter's days as a Toronto Raptor have come to an end. ESPN reports that the New Jersey Nets and Toronto Raptors have completed a trade that sends Carter to the Nets, pending league approval. In exchange for Carter, the Raptors receive center Alonzo Mourning, guard Eric Williams, forward Aaron Williams and two first round draft picks.
It happened wtf! Zo is gonna retire! shoot the f-in babcock. we had a decent team now u give us this! we bulked up but idont think eric williams wants to be a part of this team. ah well i wil miss u vince. im voting bosh and zo for all stars screw jalen.
Wow. I feel sorry for you guys. I think it was good for New Jersey but, not Toronto. This will fire everything up between the Nets and Knicks. It will be a great Atlantic rivalry. You guys do have the future in the draft though...
Wow, still cant believe this. Just hope Denver and Phili lose al their games so that we get some decent ppl in the draft.
Why are people angry, this is great, toughness inside, a savy vet like Eric Williams, and 2 FIRST ROUND PICKS. I'll be happier if they added a future second round pick also, people underatte second round picks. I heard they would've given Jefferson if we added Milt, but we declined.
:'( C-Mourning PF-Bosh SF-Jalen SG-MoPete PG-Alston not bad on papaer but what happens when mourning reitres? and I hop ebosh takes this as a personal challenge and steps his game up and he should soak up everything he can playing wit zoe
omfg...with this deal made, Babcock must trade away marshall and rose...Marshall won't come back for sure. Make the deal with the Heat...We get Eddie Jones and Dorrell Wright and a scrub to waive for Marshall and Rose. We also need to waive/release another player, to make this deal work (Moiso anyone?). I wish Grunwald was still our GM. Sure we get toughness and all, but when it comes down to it, we get no one good enough to make this team a solid contender. Who are we going to build this team around, Rose and Bosh? We better just throw the season, or make more trades.
Well it's not that good on paper either because I see Jalen Rose's name, if we could've somehow gotten rid of Jalen I would've been happy. HAHA Carter in a Nets uniform that's classic, Kidd-Carter-Jefferson, interesting

im not sure if i like it or not... zo, with one kidney is better than woods/araujo... babcock probably gonna package zo/jalen at deadline to a contender for something else later on... the 2 1st rounders is the key...with the raps recent history of draft choices...its not looking good.... Radojevic??? Bradley instead of Zach Randolph??? Im still a fan though...i was sick of Wince....
