Bring J.O to the Bulls for Nocioni and Hughes the salaries work, and it makes sense for both teams. J.O and Bosh has not worked and Bargnani is playing good as of late, they need outside shooting and perimeter D, while the Bulls desperately need interior D and scoring. As a Bulls fan I hope Paxson makes this happen!

Good call about the Knicks. I can see that with the Donnie Walsh connection and all.

how come nobody talks about Chris Bosh bouncing the Raptors . . . . he’s going to leave for sure . . mark my words! He wants to win real bad and he wants some accolades . . both aren’t crossing the border into Canada!

@Brown

We considered him a good GM the year he came in when we won 47 games which was a 20game inprovement so obviously we all thought he was god and everything. But ever since then the large majority of us are putting colangelo on thin ice… so ya get ur facts right b/c most of us don’t think he’s a good GM. he’s just average

I dont think the raps would move 2 x 7 footers. they’d be giving up too much height. I think Barganiani could still improve – he plays well when given more minutes.

@ Heckler:

Why would the Raptors ever want the poo-poo platter of Adam Morrison, Sean May and Raymond Felton?

Ditto for the horrid New Jersey package as well.

Raptors won’t trade O’Neal for random (horrid) expiring contracts in 2010 because he IS an expiring contract for 2010.

Other than the Knicks, who only look at contracts that expire in 2010, who would want him? NBA.com says he’s only missed 7 games this year, but he’s been hurt early and missed at least 3-5 more. He keeps going down with various injuries. The Raps try to mask it as his ankle, shoulder, right knee, etc., but everyone knows it’s his surgically repaired left knee that’s keeping him out. He missed almost 2 years to rehab his knee and it’s still not better. JO’s out of the league come 2010. He’s nothing more than a contract right now.

Another genius move by Brian Colangelo. Could someone please explain to me how he got a reputation for being a good GM? He hasn’t made one smart move since he got to Toronto. Maybe trading Araujo for Humphries, which hasn’t really made much of a difference. He signed Anthony Parker, who’s no better or worse than MoPete. This team is no better than it was when they first hired him.
