    ...demanding change in the organization.

    The banner was supposed to mention the website that organized the whole thing www.firepeddie.com, but the company that flies the planes would not allow it, nor a direct attack at an individual.

    Visit the website to find out more... just wanted to see what the die-hards at the ClutchBBS thought about this. Would you get involved with something like this if it were the Rox?

    stephen a. smith reported (PTI) the latest trade talk is vince carter for ray allen. sounds like a good trade to me.

    Smeg may be on to something.

    If this is what it takes to get Coop out...

    Word has it Vince told the Raptors not to do that deal because he doesn't want to be in Seattle either. Shaq complex, it seems. If I were Babcock, I'd flick him off and send him to a perennial loser like the Wizards, Warriors, or the Celtics.

    I'm calling BS on that last post, emjohn. You'll have to provide a source for that "word", otherwise I'm inclined to think you made it up.

    The talk on PTI was never that a deal was on the table, but a suggestion of one that would work if Carter was indeed demanding a trade - which still isn't clear. He's disappointed with some of the recent goings on - 3 coaches in 3 years would stress most players out - but the 99% of the trade talk is coming from news outlets in other cities trying to think of ways for them to land Carter. For the record - ALL have been shot down and MOST don't come even close to working under the CBA or give the Raps any talent back.

    I'm not saying he's not unhappy or that he won't be traded - but the current news that's out there - especially in the US - is far from accurate.
