Official: Vince Carter traded to the Magic (Merging)

[JigenDaisuke]

to me rating this trade really depends on what happens with Hedo. If we flat out lose him then I don't see us as better.

i have no idea how to react to this. I just came home and found out. Wow. I hate to see Courtney go, but Vince is a go to guy at the end of games who can create for others and get his own shot. He's clutch and our offense will be RIDICULOUSLY unstoppable, especially if we keep Hedo. I mean Meer, Vince, Hedo, Rashard, and Dwight? HOLY SHNIKES!

once everything is said and done, we fill out the roster, this team will be sick..

For those of you who believe the lies that the media portrayed of VC for all these years. The stats don't lie. He is NOT injury prone!

[Heyvoon24]

congrats Magic. hell of a trade. not only do you guys get vince, but you also get a very promising prospect. You will beat the cavs once again this season too rather easily. See you in the finals.

[DubaLakers]

32 years old, injury prone, huge contract, SG/SF for a stud rookie that plays above average D, I think the Nets win this guys sorry.

I think the Magic should have went after Bosh perfect fit, can hit the jumper keep it open for D12, give up Hedo and 1st round picks to get him. Move Shardy to the three.

Nelson, Lee, Shardy, Bosh, D12

ORL is so young and got to the finals and all the sudden threw that out the window and is looking to win now.

CLE got Shaq in a salary dump, SAS got RJ in a salary dump, Lakers got Pau in a salary dump, ORL gives up a stud rookie in a salary dump, which one doesn't fit?

Well i know get to buy my 2nd Orlando jersey lol

[Wayland The Smith]

This is an awesome trade from Otis Smith.. But what's up with Hedo now???

VINCE IS NOT **** INJURY PRONE!

[ilikebeer]

Losing Rafer and Lee hurts.

Battie? Meh. Maybe he'll be bought out and come back.

Ryan Anderson was selected one spot ahead of Lee last year.

Some questions:

VC's got 3 years left on his deal right?

So our we now paying three guys max contracts?

Didn' Otis... fools gold?.... ummmmm.....

Our Line Up?

Nelson / AJ
Carter / Redick
Pietrus
Lewis
Howard

Holy smokes! We only have seven players under contact?


Who cares? Go MAGIC!!!

Edit: I forgot about Anderson at PF.

[AdamTheGreek]

Dont Hedo and Vince wear the same number? .... just saying

Yeah.

The good thing about Vince is he's very hungry to win a title. And I found him to be more of a complete player than his cousin.


I could see us packaging Turk and Redick for a PF.
