Raptor Rumors wrote:Kevin Willis as a Raptor again?
The Toronto Raptors are reportedly looking to deal young and talented rookie J.R. Smith. The Raptors are looking for something else that isn't him. He has played fairly decent as a Rookie starter but saw his starting role taken away by Morris Peterson.The Raptors are apparently close to sending the high-flying swingman to the Atlanta Hawks along with others such as possibly Matt Bonner, Tyson Chandler, Milt Palacio or Loren Woods, in return the Raptors would recieve the Hawks mid-1st round pick in Josh Smith, former Raptor Kevin Willis, who will likely retire after the season, and another player that could end up being the Hawks other 1st rounder in Josh Childress, or 2nd rounders Royal Ivey or Donta Smith or possibly even sophmore Boris Diaw. The Hawks are apparently intrigued by JR Smith and are very high on him. The Raptors are very high on Josh Smith as he is a young and extremely athletic player with lots of versatility. As of right now, the reported deal seems to be atleast JR and Bonner for Josh and Willis.
This deal is very good for both teams, and i'd expect it to be done within the next few days.

the only thing id like to see is longer quarters, maybe 8 min... thats wat a lot of dynasties (including mine) are playin on. its jus about the minimum length that gives close to realistic scores... other then that its great
