I like the trade, even if it just boils down to Novak and a few late picks. If Bargs was kept, Novak is 5x the role player (in their current roles) Bargs is. I hope he succeeds in NYC, I always believed in the potential of Bargnani cause he has a TONNE. But his motor and willingness to live up to his potential was never there, and hopefully he regains some confidence on the Knicks.

RA Blaze mentioned this rumor in the Canadian chat during the games tonight, but it's officially being reported now that the Raptors have a multi-year deal with Tyler Hansborough. It's expected to be formally announced tomorrow.

A lot of people don't like the move, but provided we're not paying him too much I do. He's physical and he makes other players think twice about going to the paint because he's not afraid to dish out fouls. He can rebound, he's decent defensively... He'll help give the front court a variety of playing styles for Casey to play around with.

Basically, the GM and coach are communicating now, and Casey is getting the pieces he wants to build his machine :D

Updated first post with Toronto Raptors Las Vegas Summer League Roster. Kicks off in a few days.

I'm looking forward to see Valanciunas and T-Ross light it up.

So the Bargnani trade is official, and it looks like on top of the three picks, Novak, and Camby... we also got Quentin Richardson.

Well played, Ujiri, well played.

Nothing too big. I've heard talk that the Raptors are going after Nate Robinson along with the Knicks, and Nuggets. The issue is that he wants more than the veterans minimum and since we used our exception on Hansborough we can't offer that.

From what I read, the Knicks cant offer him more either, and he turned them down immediately. He's still talking to us and the Nuggets, but who knows whats going to happen. I'm not a huge fan of him, but as a Lowry backup he's better than what we've got.

I'm not sure that Camby could help any NBA team anymore. He's 39, has had an injury filled career and looked completely washed up when he did see the court last season. If the Raptors don't trade him, I would expect that they eventually buy him out.

BC handcuffed this team pretty good his final 12 months on the job so now it's a roster full of bad contracts, no draft picks (this summer) and they're pretty much capped out so they can't add a significant free-agent. Unless they tear the team down and start over, I wouldn't expect to see a lot of movement this summer.

Raptors sign another former Pacer bench player in point guard DJ Augustin. Decent shooter and playmaker. Good back-up PG.
