Bayless is twice the player Calderon has ever been.

I think we might have a genuine troll on our hands.
totally fine with him as 3rd stringer. in fact we could sign a wnba player as 3rd stringer and i'd be fine with it, since they are "break glass in case of emergency only" type players.
as a primary backup, however, i'd rather not have a gunner (terrible gunner, at that) who gets absolutely no one else inolved running the 2nd unit
Jose is a bum.
Over the course 6 yrs being on the raptors Jose has caused me a lot of pain.
1) lost of voice
2) nightmares
3) 7 broken screen TV
4) lost wages for the raptors games I went too
My dream might come soon after all.
This sounds like more opinion than fact, but I think i like the sound of him more as a third string...not this
"With the Raptors and representatives for point guard Jose Calderon working together on trying to find a new home for Calderon via trade, as ESPN.com reported last week, Lucas has been targeted by the Raptors to potentially serve as Lowry's primary backup when Calderon -- who wants a fresh start -- moves on."

Wow, you guys must be new to the NBA, cause your knowledge and opinions are just plain childish. It's like a bunch of 7 year olds arguing about how great a dunker Jose Calderon is.
He is awful, always has been and always will be.
No troll here, just a basketball purist and I get depressed listening to uneducated "fans" with no basketball brains talk about how good Toronto's worst players are.
Just watch how well Toronto does when the finally get rid of Jose.
Kind of suprising that Toronto's worst stretch of basketball started after the Spanish Disaster touched down in T dot.
I am wondering if Johnny Flynn is still in the mix for the Raptors?
Oh and its great that if someone disagrees with you geniuses that they're stupid and morons. Backlash must be very sad and lonely.
Ya I read that he was in for a tryout with them, has a few more scheduled with other teams. I think when Jose leaves, and it only is a matter of time, he would be a better option as backup to Lowry then Lucas.
I actually dont mind the so-called ignorant posts. Whatever they say, it still counts as an opinion. We may call their comments dumb, senseless oir stupid, but its actually a "poor man's" version of what we say, and what we say are said in a more "educated" way i guess.
When they say "Jose is a bum", we actually say the same thing, but in a more subtle way, like "Jose has not been up to par defensively"
Or "The Raptors suck", we say, "The Raptors have underperformed". See??
Poor Jose. He's still with the team but it seems like he\s being rushed out the door. If getting Lowry was a diss, i think getting JL3 is a total slap in the face. Signing JL3 is not to make him a 3rd stringer but rather a back-up, so where does that leave Jose. I hope they get a deal done soon, and on Jose's terms.
Acy cannot be traded right now, or for the next 28 or 27 days; " A draft rookie who signs a player contract may not be traded until 30 days following the date on which he signed his contract."
