Raptors Inside Scoop- Smitch and roster update

To the guy who said Marbury ISN'T a cancer, there are well publicized stories of Marbury, upon entering his team's locker room, suddenly made the room grow dark and cold through sheer presence alone.

Marbury and Wallace! WOW! I really like how our team looks on paper if we do this. ECF for sure!!

Are we that bored and hungry for news?

wait, you'd rather stand pat and i want to make some changes? is this opposite day or something?

i'm not fully opposed to the marbury idea and it's a BIG risk. but if BC thinks it's a risk worth exploring then i'll give the 2-time EOY the benefit of the doubt. don't just focus on the negatives, but look at the positives as well (if it works out).

NY didn't have guys like Mitchell, Bosh, O'Neal to put him in his place.

Mitchell would just bench him, Bosh wouldn't say a word and JO didn't stop a thing in Indiana when all that crap was going down.

I would definitely rather stand pat then sign Marbury, infact I would no longer watch this team is Marbury was brought in, the guy is a complete freak.

Of course its not... never was. BC can offer JO for Lebron + filler, it does not make it a legitimate trade rumour.

BC made a lowball offer, Charlotte laughs it off and counters, this guy reports it, and a few guys think the original offer is close to getting done. Brutal.

I've made statements about not watching the Raptors many times and never followed through. No matter what they do, I'm back for more like a battered housewife. Such is life for fans...

So what if he's crazy? Look at this lineup.

Calderon
Marbury
Bargnani
Bosh
O'neal

And your gonna stop watching the team because one guy is a little bit crazy? Did Marbury do something to you personally? Cuz I could understand if he stole your girlfriend or something but if you've never even met the guy then I think YOU'RE the one who's crazy.

To all you people who are against Marbury:

Will Soloman and Roko Ukic

And for those who don't know, he has helped communities with low income families.

In one of the recent SI issues, Brown said he liked Morrison and Carrol, but they both lacked the length he likes at SF. Morrison is at 6"8". So is Kapono.

I don't see it

The trade with Charlotte makes absolutely no sense. Why would Charlotte want Kapono when they already have Carroll and Morrison.

Marbury is washed up and I don't really care if he is a crack head or not.

It's pretty much a consensus that it makes no sense for CHA, Hump is a nice big for them, but for Wallace, eugh.

But, we're all just hoping for a fleece trade right now. We deserve one after the VC debacle.

I've never been a Marbury fan and he's borderline certifiable crazy. That said, go for it BC. As Gerrit mentioned, he would be playing off the ball, which would give it potential to work.
