How A Raptors Trade of Bosh To Houston Might Work

Ariza = slightly less lazy Turkelou

Believe it

Ariza = slightly less lazy Turkelou

Aside from the fact that they possess ENTIRELY different skill sets and play an ENTIRELY different style, this is bang on!

Yeah, Turk and Ariza are pretty different. I like Ariza's contract and abilities a lot more, though. A defensive SF who can shoot threes is nice to have.

I agree with Tim, Weems is a solid, if unspectacular starting SG. And since he is supposedly already in San Antonio training (at least, this is what I gather from Twitter), he might be a good starting SG next season.

And one is Turkish, the other is American.

They ARE both small forwards, though, so he could be on to something.

Don't buy the Ariza = Turkoglu line of reasoning.

I just think that any trade of Bosh to Houston will be in the form of a two-fer and involve one of the bad contracts - best bet being Calderon because there is no way anyone is going to take Turks.
