ESPN loudmouth Stephen A. Smith is reporting that Chris Bosh has told Bryan Colangelo that he is not interested in remaining in Toronto. Apparently Miami is very interested and so is Dallas. I’m not too shocked by this rumour, he appears to have checked out of late and is basically going through the motions the last couple games. Bosh probably feels that not enough has been done to surround him with good enough players to compete and that his recent bad play has more to do with NBA defenses zeroing on him rather than his own ineptitude. Keep in mind that the Raptors can offer Bosh approximately $30 million more than any other team so although the trade rumour make sense basketball-wise, it makes little sense financially unless Bosh feels he can make up the money through endorsements. I never thought Bosh was one to pull a VC but I suppose you live and learn. Just like the Vince Carter trade defined Babcock’s regime in Toronto, the Chris Bosh trade will do the same for Colangelo. This franchise is short on assets and we must get maximum value in return for Chris Bosh otherwise this franchise will enter an even darker period. |

Does this mean that Pax would need to break up his CORE? He won't do that for anyone! Remember, he felt that what he offered for Garnett was a better Package than what Minn got. That means somehow he thinks some player on his team (Deng I assume) is a better player than Al Jefferson.? |

If there's one Bull whose trade value I feel is on the increase, it's gotta be Ben Gordon after he scored 26 in the team's 122-111 win in Phoenix Saturday night that helped give the Bulls A THREE GAME WINNING STREAK for the first time in 2 years. Unlike Larry Hughes, I think John Paxson can get a bunch of guys back for BG before the NBA Trade deadline February 19th. |

Word on the street is that Portland could get him. Oden has been playing better recently. |

Raptors and Bosh deny trade rumors - Sun Sentinel - Monday, February 02, 2009 Miami — Toronto General Manager Bryan Colangelo and Raptors forward Chris Bosh denied Monday a report that said Bosh had requested a trade and that the Heat was involved in such talks. “I can’t be responsible for what other people say,” said he former Georgia Tech Yellow Jacket in dismissing the report by ESPN personality Stephen A. Smith. “I understand people are entitled to an opinion, but making stuff up?” http://www.ajc.com/sports/content/sport ... trade.html |
