Close call.

The concern, at this point, would be that trading Demar and/or Rudy would improve the team, even if we didnt get much in return.

Okay, so we already have our Outsiders in Rudy and DD. Now we just to trade for a Hogan to bring this baby home.

Quick, name heavy-minute, heavy-usage expiring players that would totally take this team to the gutter.

Is Corey Maggette still in the league?

Might have to look overseas for Marbury. Maybe Iverson still wants to play

Tonight, our new members of the tWo really came through for us - a big round of applause please for Rudy Gay, DeMar DeRozan, and the referees.

Rudy Gay for Shawn Marion(Expiring) + Vince Carter(expiring) + Shane Larkin

And if the Knicks Get Desperate: Kyle Lowry + Quincy Acy for Raymond Felton + Iman Shumpert

This tank needs to keep rolling. We need a streak! We can't keep hovering around the .500 mark we need some good job good effort losses to keep rolling in!

Well guys, I have bad news for you. Raptors are NOT tanking. They just suck big time. So many ill-prepared shots, selfishness and lack of smart players are killing the team. Their record might not be as bad as last year (Casey fighting for survival, so he can race to the bottom next year), but it will be play-offs marginal again. And I feel sad for those of you who get excited about this team sucking this much and trying to invent an excuse for them to keep sucking. Great ambition, dudes. With such passion, Raptors will lose all good but not overpaid players as soon as their contract expires, and continue to overpay gamblers like Derozan, Lowry or Gay. In other words, without major changes, Raptors will suck without tanking for a long, long time.
Do you really want to be blind to it and get excited every time they lose because of some bogus concept of tanking, instead of seeing how bad the team is?

We've got Memphis next on the road followed by Chicago and Portland at home. Then it's Philly on the road, Washington at home, Brooklyn and Miami at home to finish the month... We need 4 or 5 losses in a row to get things going, but I'm not sure I can see it happening in the next few games.

I don't know which thread I like better, this one or the one with all the Casey memes. They're both ridiculously hilarious.
