Raptors might make an offer to Brandon Rush

According to sources, one team considering making an offer to Rush is the Toronto Raptors, who had hoped to sign Nash. The Raptors had allocated significant money to Nash and now will look elsewhere – and perhaps toward Rush.

Warriors are waiting on Roy, offer for Rush

What the fuck?

jeffb · 07-05-2012, 11:16 AM

Demar for a PG or we're rescinding the Fields offer....

WTF is right!!

**Ball Don't Lie** · 07-05-2012, 11:16 AM

They should have done this before signing Fields. Rush is the better, more talented player. If they get him now, they may as well just start Fields at PG.

jeffb · 07-05-2012, 11:20 AM

Something has to be up.

Wing player if this happens-

Derozan, Fields, Ross, Forbes, Johnson, Kleiza, AA

A couple of those would have to go. A trade is coming imo and for some weird feeling i think it's Derozan.

**Ball Don't Lie** · 07-05-2012, 11:21 AM

Yeah, it'd make sense that we'd trade the best 2/3 of the group to get another average guy in to replace him.

Windex · 07-05-2012, 11:21 AM

why do we have to spend the money???

I don't know but we're stockpiling SG's like they're going out of style. Something is up with that. Probably just rescinding Fields which preserves most of our capspace. Rush has to be cheaper!

This is the most furstrating off season in a while.

jeffb · 07-05-2012, 11:26 AM

Would you trade Derozan for Lowry?

DDUnreal · 07-05-2012, 11:29 AM

Yes as long as that doesn't mean we get Fields still.

Raptors1995 · 07-05-2012, 11:29 AM

I would, but bc is too high on derozan which clouds his judgement. Once we overpay for derozan, he wont be an attractive trading chip.

Who wouldn't? That is a lopsided deal for us. They dealt Budinger for the 18th pick. ED as a prospect is on a similar level and DD is near it. I don't know why Houston would be interested in DD. They have Lamb, Martin, T.Jones, R.White, and Parsons on the wings. Also, Morey takes into account analysis and statistics probably more so than any other GM in the league. DD doesn't fare well in advanced stats.

The only thing I am hopeful about is that a Derozan Ross combo works wonder/ reaches their upside. If it doesn't then I'm pretty sure thats the last straw as a fan.

Maybe it can, if it is as Casey said and Derozan is bulked up more so he can defend the 3 better. But who knows this is the Raptors, things generally don't just work out.

LOG · 07-05-2012, 11:40 AM

Trade must be coming up, because this doesn't make any seance! I still hope that BC is some crazy genius who is toying with everybody and than he will pull out some crazy move! check and mate grand finale..

BC you sneaky bastard!

I think im going nuts from all of this FA shit..

XsnOs · 07-05-2012, 12:46 PM

who the fuck knows if this is true, if it is then i agree that shit is gonna hit the fan soon.

It depends on how much he wants? He's a good shooter.
