Report: Bargnani & Parker Offered for Okafor

I'd pass quite frankly we would be soft as hell in the paint.

Yeah, talk about hanging Nazr out to dry... (just like we had been with Mek before we had Nazr)

If this was pulled from the Raptors' board on RealGM (didn't see a link to the quote?) that thread was locked and (for now) is considered a hoax. The poster who started the thread is a big advocate of Mek and has been posting a lot about trying to get him.

i say no. theres a reason they want okafor and are willing to give up two players for him.

Mek is good. you really cant base our players performance fairly with the coaching they recieve. they have all had 2 below average coaches who have no system and no concept of scheming.

Ever since about 3 weeks ago when Mek started trying to dunk on everyone, i have been so happy. thats all i ask of him. play with fire and desire and he will be a great talent. i wouldnt trade him for many players in this league if he keeps it up. NOT TO MENTION regardless of what you think of him the man is a double double machine.

yep I agree. I was doubting him, but when he wants to be he is a beast. Maybe thats part of the problem, will he ever become the beast he needs to be in Charlotte? Or is a new system the only way?

This really just seems like a big rumor but if this was to actually go through, it'd make us extremely soft in the middle.

[Alex]

that move wouldn't make us better than we are now so what's the point?

[tamburello]

This trade doesn't work salarywise. We'd have to include somebody like Othella. This proposal is total failure.

But suppose this trade works. If they include Jose Calderon instead of Parker, I'd do that. I don't want to surrender our last keeper in the paint unless we get a wonderful "pure" point guard (although his contract is expiring).

You know, at the Toronto Rumor is more reasonable than this deal, pondered in the Palm Beach Post (http://www.palmbeachpost.com/heat/co...heat_0219.html)

Basically, it's Shawn Marion for Emeka AND Gerald.

What are these people smoking?

Just hilarious.

I just emailed Packer, he said that was NOT reported on his show. Crap trade anyway. If it were true it's be Bryan Colangelo trying to sucker us.
