    Ok, we get it; you like Weems. I agree w/ Apollo; Weems has had every oppourtunity to get minutes, improve his play, and play a team game, and he refuses to do it. He jacks up shots early in the shot clock, and turns the ball over too much. If he was willing to work on his shot, he should have done it by now. His "bestie" DeDe has improved his shot, why hasn't your "bestie" Weems?
    Ship him out of town for whatever you can get.
    You do realize he's coming off an injury right? Before he got hurt he was playing good enough to take the starting job away form Klieza. With time you'll see Weems improve. I don't see how you're expecting someone who's coming off an injury to play 100% and improve in a matter of weeks.

    BTW I highly doubt we'd get anyone better then Weems (at least potentially) if we were to trade him right now.

      I think most here undervalue Danilo. He is a really good player, he is 6'10 and freakishly athletic. Long arms, real nice shooting stroke, and he gets to the line a lot. He is a better overall player than Bargnani, and he's better than Kleiza, DeRozan (for now) and any other 3 we have. I'd actually do a trade like Bargnani, Weems + Miami's Pick for Gallinari, Mozgov and Randolph.

        I concur with the above.

        I've read that DEN stands to get a $17.15M TPE from the trade as currently is. That is from Larry Coon - salary cap 'guru'.

          Does part of the marketing campaign involve getting fans to come out and watch the other team score more points against the Raptors than anyone else in the league?

          No, but it could be a byproduct. They're probably going to lose a lot next year as well no matter what happens if this is going to be a true rebuild.

            And Kleiza was injured all year - not just injured, severely injured.

            I feel bad for Kleiza. He had a great summer and was off to a great start wiht the Raptors. I'm not feeling bad as a Raptor fan but for him in general. Nothing worse than an injurykeeping someone from reaching full potential. I'd hate to be kicking back after my playing days thinking, "What if my knee wasn't sh!t?" Hopefully he comes back like Amar'e did from the surgery.

              In a heartbeat, but then who runs point? Caldy and Leandro?

              I would switch this one up, send Caldy and wright + pick to Denver for Gallo.
              Denvers now got Ray Felton AND Ty Lawson. They don't want EITHER of our PGs.

                Yes, they're probably going to still lose a lot next year, but it would be nice if they actually got some respect while doing that. Hard to gain respect when you can't play defense.

                  Kleiza is a really good player. Very aggressive, and he can score -usually- very efficiently. He is far, far better than Weems, not only talent-wise, but Kleiza has drive and passion when he plays, and you never see that in Weems, unless he starts hitting 3, 4 jumpers in a row.

                    I don't think people are undervaluing him. I'd completely agree he's better than Bargani, DeRozan and nearly anyone else. It's just that's not saying a whole lot, is it? I'd also do that trade in second.

                          Dig it. Great pick up if true. Was VERY high on this guy coming out of Wake Forest.

                          I could see HIM being our starting SF next year if he puts the work in. Dude can bring the ball up, rebounds hard, plays D. Love it. Probably give us 30% from 3 as well if he gets the touches.

                              This is actually pretty cool. James Johnson looks quite nice, please tell me we gave them Weems.
