Lakers VS Raptors (tonight)
Now_Im_Not_Banned:
There have been scenerios where a core of good players have turned shitty organizations around...Webber, Stojakavic, Bibby for Sacramento, Dirk Nowitzki, Michael Finley, Steven Nash for Dallas, KG & Sczerbiak for Minnesota...Baron Davis & Jason Richardson will soon be Golden States savior... Denver always was a laughing-stock before Carmelo & Camby, and now Kenyon...Clippers are on the way to becoming a desirable destination. That's right, I used Clippers and desirable in the same sentence...The point is, shitty teams get better, organizations who suck end up winning at some point. It only takes some brains to bring together a core of talent who will compliment eachothers style...With Calderon, Villenuava, and Graham, that's one of the first times I remember seeing 3 rookies who can conribute and have upside on one team. If those 3 grow together, Raptors will be a playoff team again withing the next 5 years...PeACe

also, no good players wanna join the team. you can't really force those players to play, because they just play TERRIBLE on purpose like carter did before the trade.
well and your management kinda blew before that new GM, trading Tracy McGrady for a pick is one of the worst trades in NBA history.

McGrady was never traded. He left as a free agent. Toronto offered him max money, but he knew all along he wasnt going to stay because he wanted to go south and be "the man" instead of "Vinces cousin" and play in Vinces shaddow.

Funny that McGrady will have had the better and more succesful career once it's all said and done...

True, but when he left Toronto he was a 15 ppg SF and Vince was scoring 27ppg......McGrady blew the fuck up his first year in Orlando.

Charlie Villanueva, Joey Graham, Rafael Araujo, Jose Calderone, Mike James...That will be their line-up, 3 of those guys are rookies with major upside...I know Araujo is a bust, but don't completely count him out. He can at least develop into a serviceable big-man and decent center, though he'll most likely never meet his original expectations of being a feared big man in the league...Rose is probably a goner soon, but if he gets his act together sometime this season, maybe the current Raptors can win more than 12 games...PeACe

Your a little confused 'Blowed. No offence but your not a raptor fan. Any raptor fan would know at htis point the raps would take bosh over charlie in a heart beat at this point. They both got a lot of devloping to do, but if it was a bosh and charlie v. right now ultimatim they would go with bosh. wheter bosh wants to stay when his contarct is up...:-\

No kidding they WANT Bosh...But that doesn't neccessarily mean he wants to stay with Toronto. Fact is, Bosh has been voicing his displeasure with the team and showcasing somewhat of a desire to leave. You guys will have to settle for Charlie V, whether you like it or not (I wouldn't mind)...I can only hope Bosh chooses LA and helps us build a new dynasty.
