While I liked the Raptors deal, they really should have gone with the Gerald Wallace for TJ Ford deal. Wallace would be the perfect SF to team with Bargnani and could salvage Andrea's career while the Raptors also could have held onto their pick and perhaps grabbed someone like Roy Hibbert, Donte Green, or Nicolas Batum.

... someone like Roy Hibbert, Donte Green, or Nicolas Batum. Toronto Raptors The Good : Nathan Jawai comes over to be the new backup big man for Toronto. The Bad : Jawai never comes over and Jermaine O’Neal gets injured. Chris Bosh gets more and more frustrated. My Guess : I’m not holding my breath on Jawai and while I like Jermaine O’Neal in Toronto, I just don’t think he’s going to be good enough to really make much of a difference. They still are a notch below the cream of the crop. - Can Danny?

Okay, let’s get to this whole mid-level exception obsession that’s running rampant and throw cold water on any of the Corey Maggette, Mickeal Pietrus, Ron Artest, James Posey, I don’t know who else stuff that’s out there. Every team that’s over the salary cap, as the Raptors are, can make use of the mid-level exception every [...]

According to sources, 2005 second-round pick Roko Ukic, a 24-year-old, 6-foot-5 Croatian who can play either guard spot, will come over from Rome to back up Calderon, while the team will also add hard-nosed swingman Hassan Adams, to back up Anthony Parker and Jamario Moon.

Early this morning, through my agents, I reached a preliminary agreement with the Toronto Raptors. I want to thank Bryan Colangelo, Maurizio Gherardini, Sam Mitchell and all of the Raptors family for the confidence that they have placed in me. I am sure that together we are going to achieve big things in the future. - [...]

Not too many people over here have ever seen Nathan Jawai in person, let alone seen him play basketball. So we turn to someone who’s actually been on the same court as the Aussie Shaq to offer this assessment: "He’s a beast, man. He’s a monster.” That comes for Canadian national team veteran David Thomas, who’s played about [...]

The Heat doesn’t need someone taking shots away from Wade; it needs someone to make those shots easier to create. Enter Bosh, the lithe-but-crafty Olympic power forward who happens to have the same agent as Wade. That’s what makes last week’s other noteworthy trade of a veteran so significant. In rolling the dice on Jermaine O’Neal, the Raptors [...]

In the wake of a rather uneventful NBA draft day 2008 for your Raptors, we take a closer look at the only addition the day brought to the team. Down Under they call him Baby Shaq or Aussie Shaq but make no mistake, outside of his size and perhaps slight resemblance to the Phoenix Suns centre, [...]

The Raptors selected Roy Hibbert with their No. 17 pick, but were actually selecting the seven-foot-two centre from Georgetown will head to Indiana as part of a trade agreed to in principle on the eve of the draft. The Raptors will acquire six-time all-star Jermaine O’Neal and Indiana’s 41st pick in the draft in exchange for [...]
DJ gets his 3 guaranteed years

Congrats to true warrior (though hopefully not a Tru Warrior ) DJ White for getting drafted in the first round. He gets to be an NBA millionaire for sure. I couldn't be happier for him. I'm not sure why the Pacers drafted Nathan Jawai . I know nothing about him, but it seems like he's a bit undersized for the NBA. Ah, now I hear he's headed to Toronto. I guess I'll scrap my plans for an ...
