    exactly if we get both of them, than Babcock is doing wonders.

    And where did you hear Rafer wants to go back to Milwaukee?

    Agreed. I thoguht Rafer was happy with Miami and was most likely going to resign. Whered did you hear he wanted to go back to milwaukee

    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting deception:</div><div class="quote_post">jones is a solid player but i like him more in a backup role.</div>

    Coming from a guy who thinks Earl Watson is a great poing guard (kidding).

    I think Jones could start on this team, hes better than anythign we've got, and hes cheap. I hope Babcock will go for him.

    i cant see rafer going to milwaukee...they're already pretty taken care of at the point. cant see them needing another one unless it was a 3rd option in case tj goes down again.

    the more i watch these Raptors Rewinds...the more i believe how desperate this team should be to get a good pg
    Personally...i wouldn't mind D.Jones starting on the Raps. If A.Dubb stay, he could be a decent back-up and wouldn't get tired so easily. I still think they should work their butts off to grab Hudson and convince him to stay...but realistically, there's little hope.

    I don't think Jones will come to TO because he and Ford have a strong relationship in Milwaukee. I think he's found a home there. However, if Hudson decides to come to Toronto, we might see him in Minnesota next year because same needs a backup and he and Sam, along with Steve Francis are very close to eachother.

    you actually think he would sign with toronto because of past management? You think he wouldnt care that the teams goin downhill and the superstar wants out? what does that tell you about Toronto? All I'm sayin is that don't get your hopes up because this kinda stuff happens so often

    You think that matters??? Tmac and VC are cousins and t-mac left the team in a second...Bad reason

    If I didn't think that it mattered, I wouldn't have typed my statement. He actually for once, believes he has a home. He'll prefer to backup and "tutor" Ford at the PG spot in Milwaukee than goto the Raps.

    ^ It means we probably don't have enough money to get him now...unless some major trades take place.

    It relates to Troy Hudson. It means that he's not going to sign with TO because of Alston. Your prediction involves two teams that are in the running. Your prediction is like me saying Ginoboli will sign with the Nuggets or Spurs. Anybody could predict that because they're all the likely choices. However Hudson might land in Miami if they dont get a big (Blount?)

    Why would the Raptors sign another point guard? They already signed Alston to 5 years. You can cut Hudson out of the picture.
