For Aaron Williams, Mourning, Eric Williams, and two first round picks per ESPNNEWS. I hope those picks are worth something because that's a lot of old guys the Raptors picked up. They'll probably be ok, but they've got a ton of contracts on older guys now and only Bosh as a future piece (and whatever they can get for the picks, I guess).
Who all did it involve, and did Toronto get the two first round picks they coveted? Edit: Nevermindo. This is gonna completely gut the Nets front line. This makes them better, how?
Vince Carter to Jersery Just heard on ESPN radio that the Nets have gotten Carter for Mourning, Aaron William, and 2 first round picks. With Toronto now stocked with mulitple big men, do you think this makes a trade between us and the raptors more likely? I've heard Donyell Marshall and Rose's name thrown out there quite a bit. Not personally interested in either though.
It probably makes a trade less likely given that the rumor was that Toronto wanted big men. So, unless you think the Raptors will give us Marshall/Rose for any combination of JJ/Bowen/Gaines/Lue/Ward/Barret, then I can't see this furthering the chances of any trade happenning.
thats a good deal for both teams. now new jersey can sell tickets, cause no one really wanted to watch Jason Kidd by himself. Now they can have Vince dunk, which will sell tickets. Toronto's front court is tougher now. also they were winning without WIMPSANITY. WIll they trade Jalen now?
Here is the link... http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=1948449 Not a done deal yet but if it happens...that puts to rest any Rose to ROX rumors.
Yeah we can't get Rose now..they dont' have any other SGs. Maybe we can get Marshall...:/ don't know probably not I wanted both of them...DANG
I am now a NET........... the Raps got two first round picks...protected???....if not this is a great deal for the Raps.
http://msn.foxsports.com/story/3257278 Looks like they are still waiting on league approval and physicals.
Somehow I don't see this making too much impact on both teams. Especially Minced Carter and Jersersersersery.
The Nets now need a big man. How about Maurice Taylor, out of Michigan University, currently a solid post player for the Rockets?
I cant wait to see Kidd passing to VCarter on the break.....That is going to be awesome! Jefferson.........and Carter running wild with Kidd being the QB.....Pardon my enthuasium!
Actually i think it makes them the 3td or fourth best team in the East. They might be able to pull and upset with this bunch and make it to the conference finals.
