Heard a while ago he was leaving Seattle, havn't heard anything since. Does anyone know if he is leaving or any trade rumors?

Deep in talks with Adelaide 36ers for a possible exchange with Paul Rees. Don't know if Seattle could handle Rees fat salary though and 2ppg.

Its got to do with Ray wanting an extension, and Seattle are unsure they want to pay 10 mil + a year for a 30 year old whos had injury problems. By the deadline we will propably see what Seattle decision on Ray Ray is.

Pretty much sums it up. Ray wants a max extension, and while he's a super player, overall he's not worth it. Seattle don't want to lsoe him for nothing, other teams don't want to trade equal value as he's not worth a maximum extension at this stage.

I think we'll probably end up signing him.

It was Wally and Kandi, but that deal doesn't make a lot of sense and was shot down pretty quickly. The latest is straight up for VC, as Ray apparently would like to go to Toronto. Who knows, though.
