    The best way to get revenge on Carter would be to ruin his playoff dreams. The best way to do this is to lose purposely to cleveland to give them the chance to make the playoffs. What do you think?

    Well if the Raps were going to lose, especially the last game of the season, they should at least play a good game. No team should throw away a game just to be the spoiler. I hope the Raps win that game anyway so that the Nets do go in the playoffs without worrying about the Cavs. Go Raps, Go Nets!

    The Raps can't just give up the game.... I don't like Carter either but losing to the Cavs on purpose is stupid.

    Honestly. That has to be one of the stupidest suggestions ever.

    Leave the man alone already.

    It doesn't matter anyway. The raptors will lose to Lebron and company regardless, the Cavs have something to play as opposed to the Raptors.

    If anything, we should be losing to get a better draft pick, not to get some stupid sort of revenge on Carter.

    That necessarily mean we automatically become the Hawks and we'll lose.........

    I say the NBA should just move the raps like they did the grizz. It seem as if Canada cant handle an NBA Team. What fan in their right mind would want their team to lose a game under any circumstances. You guys are sick!
    No NBA player wants to play for Fans like this one!

    man I think if the Raptors were to leave Canada, I would have to move to the states or something. I would rather have the Atlanta hawks for the past 5 years than no NBA team at all. I wonder if anybody would agree? Atlanta Hawks or no NBA team?

    It was a pretty stupid idea though, especially the way he wrote it.

    I would rephrase it like this
    1. I don't want Nets to make playoffs, because Carter tanked our season and was rewarded.
    2. I want Raptors to have a good draft pick.

    Therefore I want us to lose against Cleveland, but there is no need for a grand scheme! [​IMG] [​IMG]

    I wish we would tranform into the hawks, we'd have the #1 pick(Bogut or Paul anyone?) in this years draft. 2 emerging rookies in Donta Smith and Josh Smth. Childress who i don't really like but he is averging 10ppg 5rips and 2dimes shooting 47% not that bad for a rook. Al Harrington who is still only 25. Billy Knight as a gm helped build those pacer dynasties in the mid to late ninties. He also played a large role in the relatively quick rebuild of the pacers by getting guys like Jermaine Oneal and Jamaal Tinsley. And getting rid of over paid vets like Jalen rose where he was was traded for Brad Miller and Ron Artest. who won that trade? The best asset the Hawks have is cap space to.

    The raptors future looks like this: Chris Bosh. After That? Rose will still make 19 mil for the next 2 years. Niether Alston or Mo pete could be considered young. Hoffa who is a 24 year old rookie who appears to need quite a bit more development. 2 first round picks this year and next year. Who knows we might bring in some rookies but babcock early track record of drafting isn't to pretty. Im cool with Pape Sow though. Also our cap space is hurting.

    That being said i still love the raptors. Im just being realistic thats all.

    Of course not, but that said, Toronto has some die hard basketball fans. The Raps get good support from the public, though not when compared with hockey, and most importantly the raps have some decent corporate sponsers..something the Grizz did not.

    Also, i wouldnt mind loosing the game, if only to get a better pick.
    Doesnt matter though, i suspect we will, we should loose to a better, and hungry Cavs team.

    i would have to say it is a good scheme but a dumb one. it'd be disrepectful. as for movinbg the raptors, shut up. the raptors are owned for MLSE and they have a lot of money so it doesnt matter if they are losing a little. there's no reason to move CANADA's Team...

    Wow. There are a lot of very bitter Vince fans. Deep inside of you you're still wishing that he's taking his 30+ scoring average on some weeks to your team. He didn't act professionally during his last season with the team, so he moved. Exit Carter, Enter Bosh right? So move on already.
