not an allstar but a good inside presence and good shot blocking. Hedo not so much, more of a Small Forward who can create his own shot.

I think Tyson will fit well in Toronto's system.

So lets examine - since good old BC has to make the ratio of foreign/north american stays correct:

Out: Hedo, Calderon, Bosh

In: Barbosa, Evans, Kleiza, Chandler and Diaw

What is it with that guy - making that team the UN. At least he got somet toughness finally with Evans and Chandler. Damn, if they just added Diaw to Bargnani - talk about soft

Hmm yeah not to be a stickler here but without a link to a news source confirming, we can't have threads saying the deal is done. I'll update the thread title

I agree. I was just helping out. By the way, we can't avatars with players in Suns uniforms that we can't get. :wink:

Yep, thanks for the link. Wasn't directed at anyone in particular, just that I was looking for a completed deal when I saw the thread.

And you'll have to take up the JJ avatar issue with the global mods, I'm going down fighting on this one :lol:

It's all good, and you have been doing a great job in your new mod role, so I guess we should look the other way on the avatar. Well, at least that darn LAL avatar is gone.

Waiting for confirmation; if Colon Jello has used the TPE, I'm going to be hugely pissed. If it's the reported Jose/Hedo/Jones/Evans out, Diaw/Chandler/Barbosa in 3-way without involving the TPE, then it'll be a very good trade.

Do I understand correctly that Rap fans want to get rid of Jose more then Turk?

Not quite as badly as we want(ed) to get rid of Turkoglu, no. I wish we could keep Jose and just use him as a 25 mpg player, though.
