That was one of the ugliest losses I've ever seen. I don't expect the Raps to win these games but at the very least I expect them to put in the effort. A couple of years ago, Denver had one of the WORST teams in terms of talent and yet they still were able to remain competitive in the majority of their games purely on effort and hustle alone. Woods/Araujo have been completely useless so far. These guys don't even deserve to be on a NBA team. The only bright spots on our team have been Calderon, MoPete and to a lesser extent Graham and CV. Rose has gone off in his own world, Bonner is lost out there, James is jacking up way too many shots. Our team is a mess right now.
We need some trades we have to trade away some players and get a few good players and even an all-star I got a feeling that Babcock will get fired soon Hopefully that should change our team up
We really need some big bodies up front. Someone who can grab rebounds and provide a shot blocking prenence in the center... because right now teams are attacking the basket without any fear.

The only players that have any value on our team are the rooks, Bosh, and MoPete, and there keepers. Honestly, you got to think about what you're saying, because you're sounding pretty ridiculous. Nobody is worth an all-star on our team and Babcock getting fired three games into the season will only bring more negativity around the team. Plus, what GM would want to join a team that would make stupid moves like that?
Rose had trade value, Eric Williams, Aaron Williams, i wouldnt mind trading hoffa, or maybe even mopete. You can get decent players with those, i think.

And the only way we could get any team to trade for the Williamses if we give them any kind of minutes, which is not happening right now. I wish we could find someone to take Hoffa. I'm tired of watching this talentless hack take up a roster spot. Same with Loren Woods. We must have the worst center situation in the entire league. It is still too early to panic. We should just focus on developing the young guys and if we can get the #1 pick in the meantime, that would be good too.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting PlaTsanity:</div><div class="quote_post">If we are a lottery team again this season Bosh's chance of signing an extension next summer could look bad!</div> I'm pretty sure that he already realizes that we're a lottery team. If we get a good draft pick (top 3), he might be convinced to stick around and see what happens.
The Raptors really need to get some veteran leadership for their team as well as to develop Bosh into the Superstar he could become.
