As we've seen last year with all the injuries the Raptors suffered, a 3rd PG on an NBA team is pretty important. We presently have Calderon and Bayless. This ain't a bad point guards duo, plus we have Barbosa who can play some minutes at the point. After those three, no one on the roster can play the number one spot. Who would you like to see as the 3rd point guard of the team? They could fine some good ones on the market.

Calderon, Bayless and occasionaly Barbosa
Isnt that three? Or am I miscounting?
I know Barbosa is really a 2. However, for the limited (if any) minutes we need a 3rd pg for, he could certianly play the 1. I am fairly satisfied with that.
The only reason I could see us getting a 3rd string pg is if it was grooming him to be our future back-up pg. This would probably need to be an undrafted rookie.

I'd be all for trying to get Demetri McCamey or Jacob Pullen.
Both were undrafted PG's who just finished their senior seasons in the NCAA.
Give them Alabi-like contracts (3 year, non-guaranteed, league minimum) so if they become something - great. If not, no big loss.

Yeah...I don't know. I'm ok with Barbosa there for the most part. Maybe we can get another tweener or 2 that can run some point. I say we should all start the "Bring Back Anthony Parker!" campaign. Anyway, I don't know what other options there are, but basically I think a 2 that can play the pick and roll would be enough as well if we keep Calderon, Bayless and Barbosa. At this point we could probably find a younger clone of Marcus Banks, and at the cheapest price I wouldn't hate that option.
