Aaron Gray to Raptors

[RaptorsFan4Life]

Nothing against Aaron Gray but I wish the Raps could have got in on this.

By picking up Turiaf, WAS got:

2012 2nd round
2013 2nd round
cash

Turiaf is owed less than Pietrus.

That is crazy... Turiaf is a beast.. I don't know why they would pay someone to actually take him on.. They honestly didn't get any trade offers for him?

Not a good sign for Alabi. He better bring it in camp.

I like the picks, but in the end, I'm glad that Bryan did not help the Knicks in acquiring Chandler. The Knicks are in the same division as the Raptors - you don't help your enemy under any circumstances!

Key stat: 7'0" 270lbs

C'mon Matt, you're forgetting he was a very efficient scorer. His 56.6 TS% would have placed him 3rd on the Raptors last year. He might go back to 61.2 of the previous and challenge Amir for the top spot!

It's possible BryCo believes neither Alabi or Magloire can be expected to play more than X minutes in back-to-back games and BryCo just wanted an additional insurance policy.

True. But if they are going to get him regardless..... but you are right.

All valid points.

But the key stat, in my opinion, is he is 7'0" and 270lbs. He is a banger and now the biggest Raptor on the roster.
