If you could pick any PF to pair with Jonas...

[TrossTheBOSS]

Chris Bosh lol rupaul

[imanshumpert]

That is literally exactly Jerami Grant. He's the best athlete in this class (after Wiggins I guess) and his standing reach is taller than a lot of PFs in the league right now (his standing reach is 8'11 which is almost as much as some 7 footers).

He's insanely quick, explosive and long. All he needs is to add a little bit of strength and he'd be the answer to these small ball lineups on defense.

He's listed as a SF but his basketball skills are so bad I think he'll end up being a more athletic Faried.

He can't shoot and can't block shots. He'd basically just be a high motor/banger type guy. Not my ideal starting PF especially not next to JV since JV is already great at that stuff.

You'd choose Jeremi Grant to start next to Jonas over ever single other PF in the league?
I hope this isn't what you're saying lol

Chris Bosh will remain as a Heat or traded to the West, possibly Spurs, Mavs or Suns = No getting Bosh Back
Anthony Davis = One can dream but he's not going anywhere but remain as a Hornets
Serge Ibaka = One can dream but he's not going anywhere but remain as a Thunder
LaMarcus Alridge = One can dream but he's not going anywhere but remain as a Blazers

Possibilities
Al Hofford = Despite the poor play of the Hawks in the playoff, I think the Hawks are still trying to retain the big man in the summer unless they make a deal with the Pistons, a possibly Hofford for Monroe + Fillers, would Raptors be the third team to acquire one of Hofford or Monroe?

Greg Monroe = See above

Kevin Love = There is a chance but they may want Ross and DeRozan + pick

Z-Bo = If it was 3-4 years ago sure but he's getting slow, he would compliment well with JV

Attainable But Will Pass Up for the Possibilities
Andrea Bargnani - The Knicks are shipping Felton and possibly Bargs, are we in the run for one or both

One of the Morris Brothers - Unless the Suns want to separate them I see one of them being attainable by the Raptors, possibly resigned 2Pat + 2nd round pick for one of the brothers

Paul Millsap - We could get him with Ross + pick?

Hey, we were joking about Bargnani.

Hey if someone can make some blizzard out of this world trade scenario, it's you buddy. Make it happen for each and everyone of these guys.

I'm glad you are expanding your expertise and precision to the regular boards rather than the trade scenarios. Good job buddy.

Nonono lol.

Just describing a guy that can guard small ball 4s about as well as anybody.

[feet85]

Anthony Freaking Davis

[YoungGunRaptor]

Jonas definitely needs to have a stretch 4 paired up with him in the back court. This guy needs to crash the boards hard and defend the post. Defending the perimeter would be a plus.

Kevin Love is the first name that pops into my mind. He is an elite level shooter, has a post-up game, rebounds like he is possessed, and is one heck of an outlet passer. His assists have gone up as well, meaning that he can pass both inside and out of the post. His defence is mediocre, as is his ability to block shots, but in this case, his pros outweigh his cons.

Josh McRoberts is a less expensive, less talented, but close match to Kevin Love. He too can shoot, pass, and rebound, but from what I've seen, his defence is not elite-level either. We do have Patterson, so I don't see the need to pick up McRoberts, given that there is no clear upgrade.

Anthony Davis would be awesome. He's becoming a superstar by the season, and if he develops an outside shot, he just might become one of the best PF's in the game.

Its a shame we didn't pick up Aldridge in 2006. We did have Bosh back then, but those two could have become one of the deadliest front court duo's in the past 8 years.

LaMarcus Aldridge it is!

It's not because he's leaving. He's not signing an extension because if he waits until free agency he makes a lot more money. It even explains that in the article...

1-Anthony 1brow Davis
2-Blake HighFly Griffin
3- Chris Trex Bosh

[OldSkoolCool]

Anthony Davis for sure would be the best option.

Taj Gibson would be awesome as well. I would love to have Taj on this team moving forward. Actually I'm going to look into seeing if I can't find a way to bring him here in a way that we win
