Vince

Last night we all had the chance to see Vince v. the Raptors. The Raptors won round 1, but this trade was still a disaster. To get 3 players, none of whom will be with the Raptors in 2 years (lucky if they make it to next year) and low draft choices (particularly in light of Rob Babcock's history of draft choices) for a guy who on any night can carry a team all by himself is a joke. Yes, Vince was not the same Vince Carter as he has been, but if they hadn't embarrassed him by sitting him on the bench for many a 4th quarter, perhaps he would have been more motivated to play up to his skill. Still, at 16 points per game as he then was, this would take a slew of Aaron Williams to make up the difference.

To me, Rob Babcock got clobbered. His choice of Raphael Araujo as the 8th pick in the draft was laughable. I suggest that his time is running out.
