    It's obvious that Toronto is not happy of what went on this season. They sucked it up big time. Vince has 5 more years on his contract, Lenny looks to be gone and mgmt is looking to renovate this team. I'd go for it but then again, Vince has become a Grant Hill/Ken Griffey Jr.

    as a team I wouldn't trade for him, but if Toronto leaves him available then yes take him... he will help to bring in fans and that will be key during the first couple years... furthermore its possible a change of teams will help to get him motivated again

    Why watch a former All-American at DUKE sputtering towards the end of his career? I'll pass!!!!!!! This would be like seing Pistol Pete in a Celtics uniform . .

    word is silas could be in the running for the raptors job if he doesnt advance past the 2nd round of the playoffs.

    the scenario is interesting, to say the least- bob johnson, friends with jordan. jordan comes to charlotte, hypothetically, and he tends to gravitate towards signing ex-UNC players (haywood, stackhouse, montross, etc). if jordan lands in the front office- i can all but assure you that carter's name would be more than just a rumor down here.

    I would say no to Carter, too selfish of a player even if he did come from UNC. I have seen him play in a few Charlotte games and he had the worst attitude towards the fans.

    Carter would be a great sell. Suit him up!

    And as for the Silas thing, I hope we can get him as coach.

    Vince Carter is a pussy. He's got no charisma and no toughness. Even though he can do some great things at times, I think his mentality is a cancer to a team.
