The Raptors would be crazy to trade Calderon for MP and a low first pick... He even outplayed TJ Ford for most of the season, as Colt points.

Nesterovic would be a terrible fit. No, thanks. Maybe Mo Pete... although he ain't exactly what we're looking for.

Portland won't give you Sergio for MP. Pietrus is still tradable, but not for that much. He's already lost his "upside potential". They'd probably trade us Fred Jones for him, but that's all.

Also, they don't need him that much.

Yeah, but only because he's a free agent and know we are already over the cap, so it won't be easy for us to re-sign him (not that I want to have him back).

I'd love to get Calderon for him. That would solve our need for a backup pg, and he'd come with a great contract, too. But I can't see Toronto trading him, much less for someone like Pietrus. They'll probably try to sign him, but not at that price.

I'd much rather have Calderon... but I doubt Pietrus would be enough to snag him. Quality PG's don't grow on trees.

how about pietrus and cabbage and a pick? think raptors would move calderon for that? we really lose nothing more than we would with pietrus and a pick, since cabbage won't play, and raptors get an expiring contract and euro for euro...

Yugoslavian Zarko Cabarkapa hasn’t seen any action this season, and given the Warriors lack of depth in the post, that isn’t a good sign for a near seven-footer. It doesn’t seem probable that Cabarkapa will be retained when he becomes a restricted free agent this offseason, so Chris Mullin may look to parlay him into a late draft pick.

Reckon that trade would work! The fact Jask is an expirer makes it very attractive to the Raptors

That's supposing Cabbage doesn't opt out of his deal... which he's already said he will.

Even tho he decided to wait til his contract runs out, I doubt Toront would make that trade. Only if the pick is a first rounder...and that's still far from a certainty. Not with all the health issues TJ Ford has.

I don't doubt he's interested, but only to sign him as a free agent. I don't think they'll trade for him. They don't need him that much. Heck, I'd rather keep Juan Dixon over him...
