Wow can this **** idiot build a team the right way. Can he **** stop trying to complement a complete trash bag thats been nothing but trash for 5years.

Im so excited about Jonas then I have to hear Casey talk about how "talented" our g positions are (lol?) and wer going after a top center to fill a need for next year. Ffs

Yep. Would love this to happen!

Calderon and Gasol would look really good.

We're not getting any of them GET REAL. We're the RAPTORS, worst franchise in all of sports.

I got the vibe that Amir is the one gone, Casey mentioned him in the same conversation, saying he is very good but cant guard the big front court players.

We need that top-5 pick next year. It's our turn to win the draft now that Cleveland and Washington won it.


Just like we fell flat on our face with the Draft? **** the tank.

We may be targeting a FA, but do any of these guys want to come here? I just dont see it especially with this longjam of bigs now. There has to be a trade in the works.

Colangelo never has a plan. He just makes random trades/drafts.

So wait, we're targeting a C and we just drafted a project C? Makes no sense. Would make much more sense to have a good young PG.

I'd be happy trading Bargs for an unprotected 2012 1st round pick + filler to a crappy team and signing someone like Marc Gasol. That way, we don't really have to tank that hard.

If any potential lotto team trades an unprotected pick in the 2012 draft for Bargnani, they may as well have unprotected sex with a prostitute.

Nobody's trading their picks in that draft. Especially not for Bargnani.

If you want a back up PG we can always get Avery Bradley for a 2012 2nd round pick

Don't worry man!

Jonas probably doesn't play next year and likely needs some time to develop a NBA game. Signing a C to play in the mean time isn't a huge deal. Multiple NBA caliber 7 footers is never a bad investment.

That being said I'm thinking its probabl DJ or Chandler.
