boston lost last night and chicago won giving both a record of 13-19 on the season and the with the raptors winning puts our record at 11-22 putting us 2.5 games behind boston(8th place) and chicago(9th place) we're also 2.5 games behind orlando 12-18(10th place) and washington 12-18(11th place) we are currently ranked 12th with a record of 11-22
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Eclipse:</div><div class="quote_post">I know James is playing for a contract right now but he has really impressed me. He the best point guard we've had since Stoudamire. I hope we have a chance to resign him and he doesn't forget the opportunity we're giving him right now.</div> It wouldn't be a bad idea to trade James this season while his stock is pretty high. Toronto is still a young team, and a 30 year old scoring PG isn't a particularly good investment for the future, especially when you already have a potential star in Calderon.

James is a free agent after this season and the Raptors could potentially lose him for nothing, a la Donyell Marshall. It could be wise to trade him before the All-Star break, but I guess if the playoffs are in the horizon for the team, then we should keep James and make a push for the postseason. While losing James could be disastrous in the offseason, making the playoffs could be equally important in sealing Bosh's extension. He's due for one this summer and if the team makes the playoffs with this roster, he'll want to stay for sure.
If James is in fact unrestricted then we have to trade him. Chances are, Washington or Chicago will go on a run, and its very unlikely the Raps will make the playoffs. Calderon is the pg of the future, and a lot of playoff teams would love to pick up a pg like James. Its a risk to lose Bosh, but they can pick up a solid player and maybe even a pick for James.

Besides, TO has owned Houston the last couple years with or without Yao.

They only had stro, who is really inconsistent. Beside didn't yao drop 40 points on the raps last season?
my fav houston game was when it was CB4s first year on raps, he got his first 3 ball of his career and he sent the game to OT. good times good times....(raps won in end)
