    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting MLT:</div><div class="quote_post">It has been rumored that Toronto has already made a deal with Miami, where they would buy out Mourning, and Mourining would sign with the heat for a reasonable contract, and the Heat would trade us Dorrel Wright (scouts have said he has T-Mac like potential, also Shaq said that he is going to be a star one day), Malik Allen, Wesley Person, and Eddie Jones. In-exchange, we send them Marshall and Rose....

    Its only a rumor though...Chad Ford of ESPN has reported it in his Insider article on the Raps-Nets Trade...</div>

    Yea, but if we're giving away 3 players and getting back 4, that means we will have to release someone else. It'll most likely be Pape Sow and I'd hate to see him go.

    I don't think the Raptors need Wesley Person either... He's just another perimeter shooter and we already have enough of them.

    Pape Sow,, I wouldn't be surprised if he turns out to be better player than Rafael Araujo [​IMG] Seriously, Araujo better show something to Mitchell when he comes off the injured list sooner or later because if he doesn't, his NBA career will be over pretty soon.

    Hey stop hating on that man. He is getting better slowly..... maybe... He will be pretty good in about two years.

    Yea, but being better in two years is not what we need. How is he getting better if he's sitting on the bench in civillian clothes? If the Raps don't have a legitimate centre by next season, Chris Bosh would most likely decide not to stay in Toronto.

    Being a good kid and taking care of one's self is a different matter. Bosh is a good kid, but if he feels that the Raptors are going nowhere then he might as well bolt for somewhere else. It might not necessarily happen in a year or two but it can happen if the issues aren't addressed.

    They were saying on the Fan that all of these moves seem to cater to Bosh. I think Babcock hopes that he can ink Bosh to a long contract and that's when the big contracts come off and they can start to spend some money on free agents. My biggest concern, even if it's early, is making sure Bosh wants to stay after his rookie contract finishes.

    Toronto needs to trade Zo in any way to get Jamaal Magloire, that is the only way this franchise will survive from relocation. Grunwald was dumb not keeping Mac and Vince together.

    Huh? You mean that's the only way this franchise is going to avoid having to be relocated?

    Enough of the relocation nonsense. Stupid people stuggested that might happen. There is no chance in hell the Raptors will get relocated. Unless of course , the MLSE sells the Raptors.
