He would be an awesome second option to a true number one, athletic wing. Wade has made comments about liking Toronto and the organisation so it's not something I made up. However, as long as things stay as they are, don't expect Bosh and his supporting cast to ever be much more than .500.Mattthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16945030075122490090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432386330226362504.post-50334209391797486912009-11-30T00:06:58.110-05:002009-11-30T00:06:58.110-05:00Steve, Reggie Evans is our only hope.

The Spurs hid Bruce Bowen in the past by just putting him in the corner and letting him do nothing but focus on that shot.

While I don't think they've mismanaged things as badly as the Cavs have with Lebron, the Raptors still seem to be idling in the #5 to #8 playoff seed range.<br /><br />Their offense is ridiculously scary though. It's something you would put together in a 1990s video game, since you know you'd just play defense well for them anyway. Unfortunately, none of them can defend in real life.Steve G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12021363760202667755noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432386330226362504.post-43011717234941779052009-11-29T22:23:53.498-05:002009-11-29T22:23:53.498-05:00@ Kavel: Truculence in basketball involves swingin...@ Kavel: Truculence in basketball involves swinging, and missing, at another guy's head in a "fight."

It's times like those where you rely on your teammates. They had to step up for him. What irks is that guys like Calderon, Hedo and Jack know that they're in Toronto long-term. They know that Bosh may not be. So why not send Bosh that message? That "Hey, we got your back, franchise" message? Makes me sick. It's not Bosh's job, in that situation, to get up in Pierce's face, or get mad at his teammates.<br /><br />I heard about the hard Amare foul today. The Raptors are soft. Period. We have to accept it, and deal with it. Bryan Colangelo has once again put together a soft team.<br /><br />I'm waiting for Reggie Evans, but who are we kidding? He's bound to disappoint. He can't solve the toughness factor on his own. It has to be a team mentality. And the Raptors simply don't have it.<br /><br />As for Wade, there's no chance in hell he's coming to Toronto. It's why the Raptors have to do everything they can to keep CB4. Toronto is not, and won't be in the near future, an NBA free agent hub. Nobody wants to come here. Which is all the more reason why the Raps need to somehow convince Bosh to stay. Unfortunately, his idiot teammates don't understand that.<br /><br />(Playoffs!!!1)Navin Vaswani (@eyebleaf)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08445618400360263938noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2432386330226362504.post-34182973695564027452009-11-29T20:18:52.565-05:002009-11-29T20:18:52.565-05:00Matt - Wade coming to Toronto?

I know this topic has been discussed ad nauseum over at RaptorsRepublic, but it may be time to see what you could get for Bosh. I know he's their best player but plays like the Pierce one show his softness and lack of leadership. He didn't retaliate, didn't get mad at his team mates, just put his head down and carried on. He seems to take a lot of abuse from other players. Today it was Amare with a hard foul and no change from him. He really would<br />be a great second option to Wade but unless MLSE is willing to go heavily into the tax, I don't think that's happening.
