Shrink, I thought trades could not be made until after the finals?

Trades can be made once your season is over. Wolves could have made a trade back in April.

Philly has a certain SF that I would like to have on our roster ...

Yup. the trade deadline exists to prevent messing up the play-offs.

This trade is one of the biggest no-brainers out there. Both are one-dimensional, and neither fit a dimension the current teams needed.

Yup, liked it for both teams, but more so for Philly.

This might work for both sides but I'm liking it for the Raptors big time. They have as desperate a need for a scrapy, hard nosed, physical, high motor, dirty enforcer, rebounder as anyone in the league.

I think this frees them up to spend enough to keep Marion if nobody else over bids for him and allows them to draft SG without a second thought.

These simple little moves to get a physical edge on that roster could easily be the difference between keeping Bosh and losing him.
