    The trade scenarios, far-fetched as some have been, were a constant source of media nagging. His contractual status, fluid as it may be, was discussed from L.A. to Charlotte. His reputation, comfortable with it as he may be, was harshly maligned by an Orlando GM who proclaimed that he wasn't worth the price of Darko Milicic, Hedo Turkoglu and J.J. Redick.

    Through it all, Carter tried to place himself above any discussion unrelated to basketball, as if he were a spectator listening to tedious stories told by people in a crowded elevator.

    But he was reeled into a brief exchange on the YES Network Friday night by Mark Jackson, who asked him whether he wants to re-sign with the Nets this summer.
