    In terms of having a winning franchise??.... Absolutely not...... In terms of the Andrew Wiggins chase... It most certainly enhances their chances

    At this point in Carmelo's career, we don't judge him by what he does in the regular season.

    The Raptors have just hired the GM of the year.

    It doesn't look good to the Knicks.

    probably not, they will now play Amir Johnson big minutes, and he's a better player than Bargs.

    I won't be surprised if they make other moves to build a tank, though. Gay for Butler, Bledsoe and...

    Will be hard after June 30. The numbers won't work unless Knicks add another contract.

    Those picks are very nice for TOR. I also like it for NY I guess, Bargs may play better with Carmelo being the alpha dog. He's never really had anybody good to play with in TOR.

    TOR > NY

    If the trade goes through, it will benefit Knicks a lot. Knicks basically send 2 picks for it. Both Camby and Novak are useless. Camby is too old and Novak needs to be wild open to score.

    Stern one last dick move before exiting

    (maybe not, but I suspect a couple before he does)

    Where's Amare?

    To give up all that for Bargnani, who will probably end up coming off the bench, assuming STAT is healthy, is ridiculous.

    Too unfair to the rest of the NBA if they get AB (the midget) and AB (the euro who rebounds like a midget).

    With that said, if the Raptors tank and manage to get the number one pick, Wiggins (canadian) representing/being the face of the franchise would be a great story.
