    It doesn't matter that it's better than Marbury or JC. The Raptors aren't even going to pick up the phone if Allen Houston is part of the deal.

    no way we would take Houston and his 18.5 million contract. If you guys don't want him what makes you think that we would want him?

    only way Vince is going to NY is if they trade Marbury which isn't going to happen.

    So I doubt Vince will be coming to NY york because Isiah Thomas will probably not trade Marbury or JC. I have a feeling that the Raps might be looking to try to get Kurt Thomas so they could have a quality Center

    Yeah, maybe they'll give you Jalen Rose or Donyell Marshall for Kurt...

    Associated Press


    NEW YORK (AP) - Vince Carter has four years left on his contract with the Toronto Raptors, but the five-time All-Star may not be with the team for that long.

    It has been widely rumored that Carter is interested in the New York Knicks, and his agent told the Daily News of New York that Carter asked the Raptors to deal him.

    "We did meet and asked them to look into trades," agent Mark Steinberg told the paper for Thursday's editions. "They know where we stand."

    Steinberg was overseas Thursday and unavailable for comment. A phone message was left with an assistant.

    The Knicks wouldn't confirm Thursday whether they have talked with the Raptors about Carter.

    "He's not a free agent. We're not allowed to talk to other teams' players," Knicks spokesman Joe Favorito said. "I'm not even aware of anything with the Raptors."

    Carter, who averaged 22.5 points last season, was reportedly angry the team didn't consult him on the hiring of general manager Rob Babcock and coach Sam Mitchell, who replaced Kevin O'Neill after the Raptors missed the playoffs for the second consecutive season. The Raptors will be playing with their third new coach in three seasons.

    Babcock, who met with Carter last week, has expressed confidence that Carter will be a Raptor next season and described those meetings as "positive." Raptors spokesman Michael Cvitkovic said Thursday that Babcock still considers Carter an integral part of the team.

    If he is dealt, Carter would be among the recent NBA stars who have forced management to make the move. With one year left on their contracts, Shaquille O'Neal and Tracy McGrady lobbied hard for their trades to Miami and Houston, respectively. Carter's contract with Toronto is through the 2008 season.

    Man these rumours have been posted 5 times a day. There's nothing to it. Although Vince may want to be traded we wont trade him until his value is higher. Even if Marbury is a possible player heading to TO in the deal, it aint gonna happen.

    Stop dreaming guys. You got Crawford and you're most likely going to get Dampier. No way are you going to get Vince also. Dream on.

    And no. We wouldn't trade our core franchise player for an injury prone player and a player that rarely puts his mind and heart towards a game.
