    Well, it's not like they suddenly are going to be flush with cap room. At present they have about $47 million in salaries committed for next season, but that's for only eight players. Remember, there's the likelihood that two first-round picks will join the club (barring a trade), not to mention the basic need to field a team of 14 or 15 plucky individuals.

    Every club, including the Raptors, will have a little more flexibility. Maybe it makes it easier for another squad to take on Rose this summer, or at the trade deadline next February.

    But ultimately, when people ask: "Will the Raptors benefit from any of this?" the blunt answer is: "Sure, there are some things in there that could help them -- if they're smart."

    We could have said the same thing about the previous deal.</div>

    Ya that's true platsanity, Toronto gets vince back. And you know what else? We get to trade Araujo for whoever we want that came after him in the draft. Personally i hope we trade him for Iguodala or Smith. Jefferson would be good too LOL.
