Raptors should trade Lowry now, stop this treadmill: Kelly

Rudy and Augustin for Amare and Shumpert.
Who says no?

I would definitely agree on the coaching part. It was already a risk keeping Smith after his 2 years the fact that the 2nd season record was worst than his first year... and next thing you next be wins coach of the year award.

But I dont think masai would wait during this season ... unless you know.. he actually gives him a chance lmao

I think Rudy for Amare is just a swap of terrible contracts, both expire next year, while Rudy is better than Amare i think shumpert is the best player in the deal and it's worth the extra couple million we're paying to get him.

Augustin is a throw in

I dont think NY would be too fond of Melo and Gay playing together, seeing as they play almost identically, besides Melo being 10x better at it.

Deal Lowry back to HOU for Lin.

Re-unite the Lin/Fields/Novak connection!

Kriz · 11-12-2013, 10:36 PM

that would be crazy but im sure houston doesnt want their original injury prone player back... and wasnt lowry not happy when he was at houston?

jeffb · 11-12-2013, 10:38 PM

no thanks to lin or his shit contract!

LET'S GO RAPTORS!!!!! · 11-12-2013, 11:00 PM

I would cry of sadness if I ever saw a Lin/DD backcourt.

Lin = Raptor Killer

I think it might be wiser to trade Lowry last, given that it could get really ugly without him here.

**DanH** · 11-13-2013, 11:17 AM

Lowry should be the first to go - reasonable price, so he could actually be easy to move, and he helps the team the most, so his lack will help us lose the most.

DD should be the last to go - we can trade him anytime - Gay and Lowry need to be moved ASAP, so there's no chance of them walking for nothing.

I would wait until some PG's start going down.

People still love to hate this kid and I have no idea why. He's worked on his shooting in the off-season and it's paid off so far. Shooting 53% right now and playing very well.

Dude's making less money than DD factoring in this season and next and his contract is "shitty"?

I've come around on Lin... not loving a paring of he and DD defensively though. He'd fit next to an athletic shooting guard like Ross nicely.

He's just an unattractive player.

I want no part of him or his contract.
