Don't Sign Delfino & Parker

RAPMAN · 07-03-2009, 04:45 PM

The last article I read, Raptors were going to offer Delfino 4 million per year for 3-4 years. From past stories, the only way Raptors could sign Hedo was to renounce the rights to Marion, Parker, and Delfino. Now that Marion is going to sign soon, why do we have to settle for Delfino. Why can't we renounce the rights to Parker & Delfino, and get better a free agent like Josh Childress. Let's change the make-up of this team, blow it up, and keep the core of Bosh-Calderon-Bargnani. The big gamble, without the sign & trade option of Parker, we rely or hope Ukic develops big time during the summer to fill the back-up PG position.

One of Delfino or AP needs to be signed for us to go over the cap, so we can use the MLE/LLE for more players. Trust me Delfino's back like it or not. And i like it.

Josh Childress stated that he will be staying in Europe.

Childress is a restricted FA. He's not going to come play for Toronto for less than what he's making in Greece. And we'd have to offer him more than the MLE for the Hawks not to match it.

Then why is he meeting with officials from the Bucks in Milwaukee today.

Man Childress can't hit a wide open 20 footer... He's earning big bucks overseas and he isn't an unrestricted FA. If Flip Murray or Marvin Williams leave Atlanta they'll match any offer. We can't sit down and watch the things happen. Besides, signing Marion and Delfino will give us full MLE and LLE wich means we can go for Dantay Jones, Grant Hill, Matt Barnes, Walter Herrmann or even Linas Kleiza (my prefered guy)

They are willing to offer full MLE... That's stupidness. It's about 32M for 5 years, on a SG that can't shoot
