Raptors trade talks

I don't think it's enough, he is considered their center which they want to build with. That's why Gortat doesn't start although he's a better player.

They can easily move Lopez to the 4.

Agreed. We need a better centre. BC is a gambling man. Let's try our luck with Yao or Oden. We can afford to let them heal until we fill the roster with first round picks over the next 2 years. Hey, we're the 10th best franchise financially speaking. We can do whatever we want! Go Raps!

Yao is retiring, he can barely jog around. Whilst Oden is a huge risk, he has played 82 games in 4 years or so... Being a wealthy franchise doesn't make your cap room larger, so even if the Raptors are wealthy, we have the same caproom as every other team, so we can't do whatever we want.

doesn't matter. We trade the player you hate the most for the one you think we need and then all of a sudden you have a new player you hate.

Exactly.
