Raptors win this trade in a landslide. Davis won't get hardly any playing time behind Zbo and Gasol anyways to make an impact.



What position do you think Bargnani and DeRozan have been playing?


Gay and DeRozan mean two guys who aren't especially good shooters. I'd rather keep Ross, especially considering the contracts. And I'd rather keep Davis. I don't see why Memphis is taking him, unless he's the backup C. He's a legit starter and an excellent backup. He'd probably go to the third team.


The Raptors can win this, in a landslide...what Memphis is doing is atrocious. At least ask for Ross and play him at the 3 and get a guy who doesn't need the ball and is an elite shooter...plus he's athletic and can play defense. Hell, play Bargnani at the 3 for lol's. Maybe he'd do well. But for this to be worth it for them, they better focus on Lowry (I guess they will, with Calderon being traded) and RUNNING. They have to amnesty Bargnani. He and Gay are a bad mix. And they should send DeRozan out...unless they get another shooter in the starting lineup. The ball has GOT to be in Lowry's hands. Let him RUN.

Lol so the Raptors trade a promising big man in Ed Davis and keep Bargani? I'm convinced he's the illegitimate son of Bryan Colangelo there's no other explanation.

This is a great trade for Toronto. Call them the Rapetors because they just owned the Grizzlies.

I think this could be a similar trade to the Harden trade last offseason. Harden is better and a bit younger but Toronto had to give up less.

Not saying getting draft picks is bad, but you have a chance to get a very good young talent in Gay, why not do it? What do they need cap space for? For who? Who's going there?

Detroit must be doing this to clear some cap space since Calderon is off the books next year. Team already has Knight, Will Bynum and Stuckey. His mins gonna be short. Would love to see him and Knight on the floor together though.

So the 3-team trade looks to be...

Memphis gets Tayshaun Prince, Ed Davis
Toronto gets Rudy Gay, Hamed Hadaddi
Detroit gets Jose Calderon

How does Dallas trade Calderon for Carter. Thatīs like 8 million difference in salary. This would work though.

Pump the breaks. They're 5.5 games out right now and need to jump three teams to get there. Grizz are still a playoff team.

Why would Memphis even consider that? They want VC, but not THAT bad.
