Calderon to remain starter

[BwareDWare94]

i'd take lowry over everyone there except Curry and Holiday

love Ty, but Lowry's better defensively. Love conley too, but lowry's better overall

I don't see Curry as a PG. He's better than Lowry as a scorer. Anything else? I'm not sure it's even close.

Wait Jrue Holiday has been starting for at least 3 years now how is he not an established starter...

 

[CameronCrazy06]

I also don't get how you can preach Lowry is better than Holliday because he has had more good seasons, and then put Damian Lillard #9 on your list...

I put Lillard that high assuming you'd all shit a kitten if I didn't.

How is someone, who's best 3 years average Per 36 is 16ppg/7apg, be a borderline All Star?



Even if he was eligible for the ASG, he wouldn't come close to making it

My fucking boy Kemba has better stats than Lowry. And Kemba isn't making an all star team.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

To be fair numbers don't mean much when you're on the Bobcats

 

[bosoxlover12]

Neither does putting up points for the Raptors

 

[CameronCrazy06]

Please, for the sake of all the Candians on the board, don't put the Raptors in the same class as the Bobcats. The Bobcats and Wizards are in their own class of bad.

Why should we care about Canadians

 

[Rios15]

Marc Stein of ESPN.com hears that Andrea Bargnani is "a lock to be moved," and wonders whether the Raptors might try to package him with Kyle Lowry instead of Jose Calderon. The other Raptors appear to prefer playing alongside Calderon, Stein observes, and the team's defense has improved since Bargnani went down with torn ligaments in his right elbow.

I'm pretty confused with what's going on lol, or basically what direction we're heading in.

 

[Rios15]

Raptors aren't Bobcats bad lol.

 

[CameronCrazy06]

The Raptors just look so much better with Calderon out there. I was forced to listen to their broadcast tonight, and while their commentators might be the most annoying I've heard, they were talking about how Calderon has given them energy. He's a much better distributor than Lowry.

welcome to the fucking club lol.

id say keep kyle and just focus on dealing bargs for whatever you can.

but at this point kyle is better for whatever future they have; although jose wouldnt hurt it because his game wont go away with age. keeping both of them is not a bad option what so ever, either.

Haha, trust me I hate our commentators and think they are really annoying as well. Hard for me to watch the games a lot of the time. And he's a very underrated distributor, and he can really shoot when he gets the shot. I'm stuck though. I think we need to search for a big man to accompany Jonas for our future. Something like the Pistons have with Drummond and Monroe. DeRozan is good, Ross may be something good as well.

No reason to keep both. Both players are starting caliber PGs and you can only start one PG. Trade the surplus for the best possible thing you can and move on

I don't get why they traded for Lowry in the first place, and it'll look idiotic if they end up just dealing him. I get that they wanted to move on from Calderon, but they should have dealt Calderon in the offseason and let that be that.

Look at DeMar DeRozan, soaring high for that slam dunk lol.

 

[RipCity32]

He is not a borderline all-star at all lol.

Kyle is 26 to Calderon's 31. Kyle is also an underrated distributor. Toronto looks good with either of them out there right now, and I think most of their struggles early in the season can be attributed to Bargs' lazy defense infecting the rest of the team. When one player continually sucks it up, others end up losing their want to keep compensating for him, and it all goes downhill from there.

It's excellent to see Alan Anderson back. I'm also very happy to see Ed Davis finally developing into the player he can be. Pietrus has really helped them, overall. I still really like this team and wouldn't be surprised if they claw back into the discussion for the 8th spot in the East.

At 11-20, their next 9 games only have 1 definite loss on the schedule (OKC). I would not be surprised to see them go 7-2 or 6-3 in that span and at least be sitting at 17-23. It's unlikely because of their youth and inexperience when it comes to winning, but it's definitely possible. This is quickly turning into my league pass team for the year along with Golden State.
