SIGN HIM IN THE OFFSEASON IF THE BUCKS DECIDE TO KEEP HIM UNTIL THEN...
or a Graham + Juan LOL
Didn't he say "I want to finish my career in Milwaukee" like the day he got traded? He said the same thing about the Raptors too after they drafted him... Wherever he ends up it's gonna be "I want to finish my career here in _________" that come out of his mouth during press conference.

i saw this also:
CV: but the guys at Lexani were able to hook up the rides with some really nice Asanti Wheels and added a special treatment on the body kit. The rides looked "wicked"

Have to feel bad for him. He's a great character who always seems to be shafted.

it's been long established he's not a terribly bright dude, i'm sure he has a pretty limited vocabulary of talking points when speaking to the media. you think his agent is dumb enough to let that dude talk on his own in front of reporters?! Maybe if his agent is his brother...
"great city, love the people so far, i hope to finish my career here" is surely the only talking point he has when trade time rolls around.

The whole Yi thing made him completely expendable.
Am I in the minority of people that doesn't want Charlie V back?
I just don't see him having a role on this team with the personnel we currently have.

That sucks. I feel bad for him. He's a great guy that can contribute to any team. For some reason I just don't see him staying on 1 steady team, I see him bouncing around the league for a home. :S

i think CV would be a low cost, high reward guy
and could really be a plus when hes motivated...
defensively he needs alot of work tho

I'd welcome CV back to this team as a free agent. Seemed like he really enjoyed Toronto and dislikes being in Milwaukee.

Do the Raptors really need another soft, underachieving big man who can't play D?

HERE is a link to his blog on NBA.com.
Some interesting tidbits:
I would really like to make Milwaukee a part of my future, but it doesn

If we can get him for cheap why not? He's proven he can play if he gets consistent minutes and Smitch will definitely keep him motivated. I remember Colangelo saying that it was tough for him to trade Charlie so he's definitely high on him. Remember, this guy scored 48 points before so he definitely has the tools to be a solid starter

That is one of the characteristics Colangelo likes to see in his players.

I loved Charlie when he was here, but that sums him up pretty good.

What are you talking about? I heard Charlie talk many times on t.v. and you could easily tell he had a good vocabulary, and was an intelligent person, unlike the numerous NBA players who have the vocabulary of a 14 year old.
Even Chuck and Leo were complimenting him about how well informed, polite and intelligent a player he was. What player is dumb enough to publicly state he cannot see himself in the long term plans of a team he has just joined?

I'd take him in a heartbeat. He would certainly help our rebounding woes.
He seems to have a knack for getting offensive rebounds. It's an unappreciated skill of his.

He'd be a much better rebounder and offensive player than Bargs is right now... in fact I can't think of anything Bargs can do better than Charlie...
A guy like that off the bench would be nice, although I don't see them trading him back to us...
