Lowry and Scola for Bargnani, Ed Davis, and Amir Johnson and Gary Forbes. The Rockets need more power forwards. It's unfortunate the Rockets and Raptors couldn't get something sorted out for the draft, and bring in Drummond. Ross for Lowry straight up is an interesting thought, but if it didn't happen at the draft, I doubt it would happen now.
If Toronto can get a third team involved with a young stud we like maybe trade him. If all else fails we can S&T Dragic for a trade exemption and a future first. The pick could be used for A Howard deal.
Bargnani is a terrible defender because he's a stretch 4. He's playing out of position. Pairing him with someone like Lin and Asik (who can get his back on D) would be so damn dynamite.
Probably, or he got dumped by his girlfriend, so she could go chase Lin in a proper manner and upgrade.

what a bunch of punks those raptors. Could have and should have done a draft day deal but noooo. ugh, don't trade with them unless they give you Jonas.
Only thing I would want is a future 1st. Even that is an 8th pick at best. I'm just depressed that agents ands endorsements make all the decisions. It's hard to stay interested.
A bunch of stupid punks. We would have traded Lowry for 8th pick to draft Drummond, but they went and drafted Ross whom they could have gotten later on.
The more was the 8th pick. They could have traded the 8th and still drafted Ross at 12. Instead, they wanted to bank on Steve Nash coming, because apparently they think they have a shot at winning a title. They have nothing on that team that I would trade for Lowry. A bunch of freaking idiots run that franchise.
xiki, where are you getting this mess about Toronto wanting to unload Derozen? Everything we've heard up til now has been they want to build around him and Jonas. What do you know about Derozen and the Raps?
