I don't want him back. He shouldn't be allowed back.

Call it wishful thinking but I honestly believe that Orlando has a very attractive package to offer the Raptors. They need a Centre and they love Euros... we have Gortat and Vasquez. Then we have Bass, Anderson or Pietrus to make up the money.

The only issue is that it appears Chris Bosh is not that interested in coming to Orlando. If we made this offer to Colangelo and he went to Bosh and said "look, I know that Orlando is not on your list but they have made a great offer, are you interested?" would Bosh honestly say no?

 

so thats when you get a third team involved in this trade deal like miami or the Knicks... If we can get bosh to miami through us with wade coming back to us for bosh then all miami has to do is get Lebron down their or Joe Johnson to pair up with Bosh

i'm hoping dwade realizes that he won a championship with shaq and that he could probably win 6 more if he teams up with dwight

i'm sure a lot of other teams are thinking the same thing about dwight howard when he has an opportunity to be a free agent.

Let's all hope he signs an extension before that ever happens...

Hey Guys kinda 50/50 on this offseason but kinda excited about the draft someone on Realgm got me interested in the prospect Craig Brackins:

 

Measurables: 40" vertical w/ 12' maximum reach, he's got huge hands (9.75" length x 11.25" width), stands 6'10" w/a 7' wingspan.

 

Synopsis: He can create off the dribble easily and consistently to get his shot off. Has a sweet mid range, 3PT, and low post game plus he can explode off the floor and finish strong at or above the rim. Looks like could be a lovely piece to add next to C Dwight Howard (maybe sooner than later) and to eventually replace F Rashard Lewis.

 

Once he gets stronger he actually looks like he would fit into the starting lineup pretty lovely at the PF spot, moving Rashard Lewis to his natural SF position (assuming he'd be able to defensively play against NBA PF's). Kinda reminds of a taller version of Carmelo Anthony or Glenn Robinson game-wise.

 

Sorry for the long read but what do you guys think?

 

Here is a link to Some highlights so you have a better idea of his game:

Dwayne Wade won a championship with the refs. Shaq was not even the best big man on his team during the playoffs that year.
