    Eddie has big time games every time he plays the raps, maybe there is some kind of connection. Paxson is not exactly pleased with ER's behaviour lately and there is a strong possibility that he might be traded.
    If we can't afford Jones why not attempt to get another Eddie.

    Eddie Robinson makes no sense for the Raptors. You already have Vince Carter, Lamond Murray, and Mo Pete fighting for minutes at the swing position. The Raptors main weakness is a solid center who can defend in the post. They have plenty of players who can score, but they are missing the shot blocking intimidator. If anything they should try to go after Erick Dampier or Adonal Foyle. Cohen is a sucker who will do anything to unload Dampier for some cap space. I'm sure the Raptors can get him for cheap.

    Yes I would like Dampier or Foyle. I think Foyle is better tho and has one year left on his contract. I dont no how much it would take to get him tho.

    id like Dampier or Foyle since we need a big man but i doubt they would be traded.

    also, regarding eddie robinson, we need a SG. not a SF. get a solid backup player.

    Yes! Eddie is the answer to all your problems. He's a great player. Great shooter. Great defender. Top 20 player in the league. Has tons of potential. Can dunk well. Imagine him and VC lighting up the court with their amazing hops and dunks.

    Did I mention he is also a great defender. He is what you need to make the Raptors title contenders.

    In return, I'd "settle" for Murray. Or Olajuwon/filler. Or a canadian penny. Anything really.

    If we can not get Lenard or Bell then E.Robinson would be a good pick up. He is a 6'9'' swingman with and a tremendous athlete with a 40inch vert. His primary position would be SF and VC,LM, could both be moved to the 2 spot. He could be a Defensive stopper off the bench. Body wise he is Demarr Johnson's clone, but not as great of a shooter. DJohnson would be my 4th option.

    i dont tihnk we need a player like robinson. he is a SF. we need a backup SG. unless we want to upgrade our SF spot the i dont c why we would get Erob....actuall,y EVEN if we wanted to upgrade the SF spot we shouldnt get ERob bcuz he is not that good.

    we should get Lenard back or Bell or some1 else.
