Will I be going to T-Dot next season to catch a few Raptors games?

YES!

Mildly excited (nothing is set in stone until Hedo signs and we actually see this potential unit in action) and now I have another good excuse to visit my relatives in the big TO, in other words the potential starting 5 for the Raptors:

1. Calderon
2. DeRozan
3. Turkeyglue
4. Bosh
5. Bargnani

I like the international flavor to it-DeRozan might as well be Spanish/Filipino with that surname. Colangelo doin' work as usual, moving the chess pieces into the right spots. Still, Toronto is either a great bench or one solid superstarish player (preferably in the sg position) away from being regulars on ABC in June. Bosh will remain a second-tier superstar. Bargnani maybe, but I think he has still to prove he can be a consistent performer before I am going to consider him as a game changer. Calderon brings a Stockton presence at best. DeRozan? If all the hype is true (I haven't seen a game with him yet) we might have a star in the making. I think this potential Raps team will be fun to watch in a year or so, maybe even by mid season. Turk will be a nice addition, the anti-Marion in all the right ways. Did he come for the money? Heard on the radio today that it had more to do with lifestyle, his wifey wasn't feeling the twin peaks style living in Portland and the fact that it's another 5 hours on a plane to Turkey. Of course, Toronto is forking up another 5+ mill more than the city of roses for Turk's services, buuuuuuuuuuuuuut money ain't a thang right? right?
