Doug Smith reporting a head-hunting firm has been hired to find Colangelo's replacement: ...

Some (myself included) would argue that a "gaping hole" exists at SG even if we keep DeRozan....

Didn't know where else to put this: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Least efficient midrange volume guys: 1. Monta, 2. Boozer, 3. Gay, 4....

That's the beauty of trash-talking. You could be LeBron James, but a witty opponent can still find a way to rip you ;)

There is a bit of a "dorky" (for lack of a better word) stigma associated with glasses on the court. But that would apply to first impressions only....

I guess we'll agree to disagree. I personally don't believe the Leafs were a factor in Colangelo's (yet to be) decision. I just don't see how one...

It doesn't make much sense why the Leafs would cause a delay in Colangelo's decision. "Can't...conduct...businesss. Watching...hockey"

I'm of the belief that a team can't hide a front court player who is a poor defender/rebounder. If Bargnani was left to focus on just his shot, I'm...

I've been screwed with this kind of unsubstantiated optimism before. I refuse to let that happen again. I should've learned my lesson with the...

Not sure I agree it's the organization's fault for wanting/expecting Bargnani to diversify his game. He wasn't exactly a 3-point specialist coming...

Casey needs to design our offense around Bargnani (like Dirk in Dallas). Then everything will fall into place....

This team would need to "overachieve" to make the 8th seed.

As for Michael Grange, loved his work when he was still writing for the Globe & Mail. I haven't found his Sportsnet pieces to be as good, but I...

In what alternate universe is Maxiell an upgrade over Amir? Probably the same universe that has TV spots advertising shows "based on the stand-up...

My main point was to give the viewing audience more credit. Canadians are no longer "new" to basketball where the SkyDome faithful would cheer the...

But wasn't MLSE one of the North America's biggest sports conglomerates long before Lieweke? What does he bring that changes anything in that...

First, good find Matt. McLean's would be the last place I look for Raptors news. Second, I had no idea McLean's was owned by Rogers :| Third,...

Whether Lowry is a championship calibre PG is to be determined, but nobody really made that claim. And the same can be said about every position on...

1st bold: Yup, it would seem that all folks intolerant of homosexuals believe it's a choice. 2nd bold: Aren't all religious virtues outdated? :p

Let's hope whoever the new GM is really emphasizes that this team will only go as far as Jonas takes them.

What people (like Broussard) fail to realize is that we all have a right to an opinion....but we don't have the right to have our opinions respected....

Maybe we can get a video montage of Michael Jordan (instead of Gretzky) this time...

Agreed. Jackson brings instant credibility to the organization, but that doesn't necessarily mean he knows how to build a winning team. Jackson...

I vote Bargnani for 15th man of the year. There HAS to be an award for the most talked about nobody.

That move won the Spurs a title :p This is what I think of when I think of Robert Horry:

Robert Horry was on Sportsnet590 last night talking hoops, and he said if the Raptors don't make the playoffs next year, he'll come and coach the...

I could be wrong, but I thought I heard there isn't a presser for the players this year. Just Casey/Colangelo.

Adding a rookie may not be ideal (in terms of roster composition), but acquiring talent is never a mistake. At the very least, you acquire a trade...

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>Colangelo says after meeting with the players at the exit interviews, it's clear the guys really look ta Gay and...

LMAO!!! Who actually believes this stuff??? <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p>BC: Continuity of the roster will be big for us next...
