Jose said he is not coming back, might as well get as much for him as we can, nice to see him making himself more attractive.

Maybe the focus shouldn't be on Jose's trade value but rather how he helps this team, and the way I see it, he has done and is doing way more for this team than Lowry. Rather than trade the player who best fits the Casey's team-first philosophy and gives us the best chance to win, maybe we should look at trading the guy who's probably gonna bolt in a couple of years. I'm not saying that Lowry isn't the better talent, just that he doesn't fit this team.

I love Jose. He is the ultimate professional and the kind of guy every team wants. But, he's way too injury prone to be given the starting gig. I can guarantee you an injury is around the corner.

Sell high, buy low my friend.

I cant see us paying him for than 6 mil for his services.

Trading Jose would be the right move from a "tank now, reap rewards later" perspective. But damn it all, I want him to be a career Raptor.

[enlightenment]

guys you always trade when the irons hot.

Jose with 2 triple doubles, will net some GREAT rewards. I feel we can do better than Gasol with Bargs + Jose now.

Jose's trade value just sky-rocketed.

Nice to see the rookies getting rookie minutes for a win. Casey really rides DeRozan and Calderon. They do make a great offensive backcourt this season. There is something to be said for continuity. i.e. "building."

Remind me again why Jose isn't a starting point guard?

He's too injury prone, which is funny because Lowry is as well.

[Sam17]

Kyle who?

[Beagle]

If the Raps can win the next few too, fans can crow for Jose the All-Star. :-D

Then trade him? Hmmmn.

[Ambidextrious]

bravo! raptors truly played a great game! jose was absolutely astounding

[enlightenment]

BEST GAME EVER.

The refs were so biased, and we played SO much better than the point differential shows.

Jose is the Raptors PG killer, he needs to start even if Lowry is healthy.
