What Sports professional doesn't have baggage.

Their are other possibilities out there that the Raps are looking at.

TJ for Boris Diaw from Phoenix being one of them. I think the O'neil trade would be better, but at the end of the day, whatever happens, TJ has to go.

I'd love the O'Neal trade to go through but not so high on losing a draft pick

Well it depends which O'neil shows up. If the all-star O'neil comes to play for the raptors then he is definately worth the 17th pick/rasho/ford.

I want to see this trade go through. We need a presence like O'neil in the middle. Even though I was kindof hoping for a bigger guy, but o'neil/bosh should do well together. Howard would take them both to school though.

Doesn't mean it won't happen. The problem is, in order for it to work, we would have to give up TJ, Rajo, possibly our draft pick and another player to make up the salary against O'Neil's and more than likely an expiring one. Might be too much to give up. But we will see. At least people know he is serious about trading TJ. So you never know what will come out of this.

Its sounding like the Diaw deal is more active, but again, you never know.

You know of someone that they can trade for that makes sense financially? It's easier said than done. If there is a deal out there, it will happen, but until then, they need to get the best person available period and TJ needs to go.
