    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">It appears the Raptors are making a last ditch effort to convince Vince Carter to remain in Toronto.

    Marty York reports Carter very privately flew into Toronto from Florida Thursday and spent the day in meetings. According to York's sources, a member or members of Raptors brass met with Carter, possibly as a final shot at convincing the Raptors star to forgive and forget club president Richard Peddie.

    Earlier reports suggested Carter wanted out of Toronto if the organization didn't fire Peddie. That scenario is unlikely to unfold as Peddie has full support from the owners, particularly the Teachers Pension Fund.

    While not contractually obligated to deal Carter, York believes the team is exploring deals. One potential blockbuster that Carter has mentioned to some of his friends would see the Raptors star heading to Philadelphia, Allen Iverson to Seattle and Ray Allen to Toronto.</div>

    thats a crazy trade. i guess tha would help each respectaable team out?

    but i would rather see carte gone. i think ti would be better off for the team. Carter getting older and bosh is not getting any younger.

    So i say get what youth you can get to help your roook out in the future.

    Though i dont know how old Ray allen is; please dont tell me ehes the same age or close to carters.

    Duplicate Thread, of a duplicate thread. I made the same mistake,(it was merged ot the TO thread). I heard this was confirmed by the CBC, but alot of it might be the CBC just reporting speculation.
