    KG and Lowry on one team...that we be some crazy, good leadership, toughness, and drive to win. JV would benefit a lot because if anything KG, has a way of inspiring and instilling confidence in the players around him.

    Not to mention if it ever came down to it and Raptors faced of against Cav's in the playoffs, KG is one of the few players in the East that holds playoff seires wins against LBJ.

    How's Lopez doing this year? Can he help a team?
    Not well. He's probably the principal reason Brooklyn is in as much of a hole as they are. He's not doing a very good job protecting the rim, and his offensive game is very inconsistent.

    As for KG, because he's an expiring I struggle to think of a trade that is mutually beneficial to both the Nets and the Raptors. He'd be good to have for certain, though.

    if you could get him for cheap, absolutely

    he hasn't been playing well this season but no one on that team has and i have a feeling if he went to a playoff team like ours he'd turn it right around.

    add in the fact he wouldn't have to play more than 25 mins a game or so because of amir and PP and he'd be in a great position heading into the playoffs

    having a grizzled vet who knows what it takes to win would help immensely. sign me up.

    The KG idea sounds good but we don't know how our core would react to someone new setting the tone for them. It could backfire. JV might benefit the most if it works out. At this stage the raps don't need to be playing poker trades. Is it just me or does Kevin Love seem lost, not interested and probably hates playing 3rd fiddle. Leave the team as it is now and go Hard at Kevin Love his body language says he hasn't bought into the Cavs.
    Kevin love would be perfect here next year. He'd be our best rebounder and stretches the floor like nobody's business. Hopefully resign amir cause hes the ideal first big off the bench for a contender. 2pat could be fourth big or package him out of town with our 2016 first for a solid return. I think it would make us a contender. Of course to make that happen we'd need cleveland to have something bad happen this year. Theyre rolling right now but I have a feeling more toxic times are on the way with Irving and waiters on that team.

    It's about the timing of the calls which destroys the Raptors momentum on both ends.
    That's the NBA. Plenty of games where refs swallow the whistle in the final minutes and let them play. Every fan of every team ever believes the refs are out to get them. I don't buy it.

    It's been pretty obvious since demar went down that the refs no longer treat us as the best team in the east, there has been a huge difference from the beginning of the year

    These comments about not getting calls? The Raps are 2nd in the league at getting to the line.

    Even if KG doesn't play a single minute, his veteran presence would be still a god send in the locker room. Jonas will finally have a mentor worthy of the role.

    Don't worry about his declining skills. He's still night-and-day better than Hayes, Bebe and Steamer combined.

    As long as we don't give up anything substantial, he's worth it. Especially when you factor in the Casey connection.

    I wouldn't mind prying Jarrett Jack from them, shipping vasquez's chucking ass out of here.

    Not to Brooklyn though. Feel like he'd be a guy to come back and haunt us

    Sorry for the double post but just an after thought, if it weren't for the contract and what we'd have to give up to get him, Joe Johnson would look great on this roster. Gives us a third guy in our starting five that can create and he can shoot pretty well.
