    1) Is he looking to max out?

    2) If so is it 7 or 9 million a year?

    3) Is he looking at possible staying?

    4) How close would Walt and the exception be to the max (draft picks would need to sweeten deal)?

    It would be in Toronto's best interest to get something for him, preferable from a west team.

    for Walt? Doesn't a man named Vince play SF for Toronto? ... looking for some clarity.

    Duckets are tickets.

    We have a 50/50 chance of winning our next game, but there is only a 30% chance of that.

    The trade would be for picks, but Walt would be needed to cancel out the salary. Even Vince needs a backup.

    Mind also the fact that Vince would prefer to play SG, rather than SF, so he doesn't get banged up as much. McGrady is their future SF, but is SG for now, till he adds a little more muscle/weight.
