4th largest market in north America, always above average attendance and always turns a profit, and MLSE just bought by Rogers and Bell aka the money is now unlimted (already seeing this with the Leiweke hiring)
well Milwaukee was the frontrunner in the discussions for smith before ATL backed out at the last second. I cant really blame them, the offer was terrible. The bucks didnt include Ellis, Jennings, or Sanders, so id rather have the cap space than spare parts such as udoh, mbah moute, and udrih, etc which is pretty much what they were offering.
Raps were pretty lucky that it was one of those increasingly few and far in between games for Anderson. Cant stand his game unless he's shooting like that. He's become another kleiza, either cant hit a shot to save his life (most of the time) or else cant miss (last night and a few other occasions). Good for him stepping up when rudy was off i guess
Vick is going to get hammered, but a lot of his recent injuries have been occuring when he's tried to stay in the pocket. This has got to be his last shot. mind as well go down doing what he's good at. Maybe he gets lucky and avoids injury scrambling around and making things happen. Probably not, but maybe. Reid failed in his attempt to make him a pocket passer so he's got nothing to lose, career wise anyways
looking at it from the perspective of either team, i dont see how this deal makes sense for either team. Bargs absolutely does not fit the culture in chicago and Boozer just costs too much for the raps after the gay trade. Now if fields and his 6 million was thrown in maybe, but i dont see how that happens.
Ive wanted bargs gone no matter the cost, but wow boozer's contract is quite the cost. If the bulls for some inexplicable reason actually want this and it's the only option out there do the raps have to take this? they could also amnesty bargs if they want but that seems like a waste of an asset unless its facilitating something else
theyre mad because Casey actually called them on it, hence the fine and no apology that ive heard of yet. The missed call was more blatant than the previous 2 already apologized for. its coming not that it matters
looks like he was saying Rudy would take all the minutes Anderson was getting at SF, allowing them to trade Anderson for a serviceable big.
Pretty sure every raptors fan is aware of Rudy's position, as we have been searching for a SF for a long time and Rudy was always at the top of BC's list
that phx trade would be intriguing, tho i wonder if beasley is ever going to be worth the trouble. Scola helps short term for sure.
And ya id be all over the gasol trade if the contracts matched but as they dont i also see no way it can happen without the raps throwing in way too much
Raptors already have 2 apologies from the league before that joke of a no-call last night, so you can make it 3 now. I know those 3 games the refs directly cost them make no real difference other than maybe 10th seed over 11th, but still, this is getting ridiculous.
i fear that there are absolutely no takers for him tho. I would've been happy with anything as long as it meant bargs moving on. After the rudy trade that is no longer the case. We are too thin in the frontcourt now to dump him for nothing
i will be sad he never lived up to his promise. I sure as hell will not be sad to see him go. Drunk off my ass celebrating in the streets is more like it
Fat Chance
sorry to eavesdrop but it was nice to see fans of other teams actually talking a bit about the raps. Things are finally looking up for us
He was terrible last night. Was excited for the Rudy/Melo matchup but both were awful. Ugly game

2. Good for u Casey, sticking up for your guy
3. The NBA is a joke
