Yeah, me too. But he's probably a prime candidate for trade bait - or maybe one of the point guards. If Colangelo has demonstrated one thing it's that he's not afraid to make a move (just ask Charlie V.)

At this point there's no way he's going to trade Jose or TJ. Colangelo likes to build his team around the point guards and it's the main reason why the raptors are doing so well this season. There's no drop off in production when the bench steps in. I think the raptors have one of the deepest bench in the league. A lot of teams are caught off guard and are now realizing how good Calderon is.
Darrick Martin may be the sloooowest point guard int he league right now and we'll be holding our breath everytime he steps into the court if we lose one of our point guards.

That was an ugly game. How many chances did Sheed get before that first T? Supposed to be zero tolerance, isn't it?

Ah well, raps held their own against a very good team.

I don't know why Wallace wan't given a 2nd T, I mean the offensive foul was the right call, he definitely hooked Bargnani's arm.

Vince with the "Come on, MVP?" gesture is really why I will always hate him... Anyways, Raptor nation, I'm excited.. Screw the Atlantic, the east is wide open right now, with the exception of Detroit which will probably hold the #1 seed.. I think if we can avoid playing Miami in the first round we'll have a really good shot to get past the opening round.

Raps fans--- I am unbelievably jealous of your team. I will probably be rooting for them in the playoffs as my "adopt a team" program.

2 questions...

1. Would you trade Anthony Parker for Vince Carter?

2. Is there anybody in the world you would trade Bosh for?

Much easier yes. Also except Bigt2k4's head to explode when deciding who is better Nash or Bosh.

Pudge,

I honestly think that Bryan Colangelo is a genius who sees the big picture.

Every "expert" and wannabe expert (like me) thought the TJ Ford deal was terrible. Yet, he fits, and has been a huge reason for their improvement.

Anthony Parker has fit in very nicely as a great defender who shoots 3s ver well....in the Raja Bell, Bruce Bowen mold. He just fits. People underrate how dynamic basketball is.

Keep in mind Vince sucks on D, is not as good as a jumpshooter, and quits when the going gets tough.

And Bosh....who would you trade him for????

Marwan · #40 02-15-2007, 01:17 AM

I wouldn't trade AP for VC from a team chemistry standpoint.. Anthony Parker is a great utility guy, he hustles, shoots very efficiently and plays D.. The Raps don't need more scoring to make them a better team, so Vince offers nothing. (Liability on Defense). Vince's stock is plummetting. If we're just talking about talent, then ya i'd take vc.
