I've just seen this on Raptors TV and saw Hoffa got traded to Utah for Kris Humphries and Robert Whaley? Anybody recieve word on it? EDIT - there's a source on Raptors.com http://www.nba.com/raptors/news/pressrelea...ade_060806.html
http://www.nba.com/raptors/ Its official. Pretty good trade for the Raps. They trade one crappy center for 2 so at least they have some more depth and Bosh won't have to play center as much.
wierd, i thought that teams couldnt trade until after the playoffs. o well. humphries isnt good at all, but i geuss it is better than rafael, i dont know who robert whaley is.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TheFreshPrince:</div><div class="quote_post">im sorry, but i have never seen araujo play. is he as bad as i think.</div> Rap fans are considering this to be a steal and all we're getting from it are Humphries and Whaley.... that says enough.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting TheFreshPrince:</div><div class="quote_post"> is he as bad as i think.</div> Worse.
Hand Colangelo GM of the Year now. This trade is the blockbuster of the summer. I don't think any other trade in history could top this.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bobcats:</div><div class="quote_post">I hope Kris Humphries can make an impact. Wasn't he a 20/10 player as a freshman?</div> I'm not sure but he was drafted 14th overall in his draft and so far has been a bust. Hes got a decent jumpshot and rebounding abilities. I'm guessing he'll backup Bosh and the Raptors will sign a center or draft Aldridge.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bobcats:</div><div class="quote_post">I hope Kris Humphries can make an impact. Wasn't he a 20/10 player as a freshman?</div> Yes he did but we had a weak team and he hogged the ball like nobody's buisness. It seemed like he went to minny to put up some good numbers and get a pick that he didnt deserve. Mission accomplished. He may turn into something, but i dont think he has it in him to try. He's from hopkins, the preppy, cocky school no one in minny likes.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bobcats:</div><div class="quote_post">I hope Kris Humphries can make an impact. Wasn't he a 20/10 player as a freshman?</div> Yeah, back when he played with the Golden Gophers back in 03-04, he was a solid 20/10 player. If he wasn't undersized, he would probably be a top 5 pick. This was like a conversation I had with Voodoo Child like last year and I still remember it. Wow.
Wow what a sweet deal. The sweet thing about the deal is not only do we get rid of a white fatass who is 25 we got ourselves a young powerforward at 21 who has a good shot at contributing to this line up and he is also cheaper but alot more explosive and a lot more talented. I believe he could be developed into a solid contributor
I'm not sure what to say about this trade.....KOC gets a guy he liked some on years ago for a bust and Whaley who I liked. Kris Humphries wasn't ever going to do anything here, can't make free throws and is dumber than a rock. He has had trouble picking up the offense even after 3 years. You guys keep saying he has a jumper but to tell the truth, he has no jumper whatsoever, all he can do is get that dunk in transition. Whaley is someone with tons of potential if I say so, but he's troubled and Utah got rid of him. He's got a bad background, raped a little girl when he was in HS and then the bar fight he was in this year. Why do you guy call Araujo..Hoffa?
Don't let the door hit you on the way out! I guess Utah is continuing their tradition of white-guy centers who have no skill and are just in the league because of their size. Maybe he can learn a thing or two from Ostertag.
