yea you guys got rid on Jermaine, BUT Marion isn't much better he is a system guy and he doesn't compliment Bosh like you guys hope he will... But you guys do win, by getting his salary.

I understand what you're saying. We aren't getting a TON better, but the cap was a big part of making this deal. As for the system player, that could be true....but only time will tell right now.

Always liked Marion, now the Knicks gotta play against him.

Too bad this guy just can't find a home.

Looking at the deal on NBA TV right now, Raptors give up like 6 ppg and 4 rpg.
Banks won't even play for you guys, and you lose lots of depth imo.

but jermaine basically did nothing for us
he had gotten injured a lot already
we really needed help at SF, bargnani and bosh can split minutes at Centre

Only reason I see Ronto doing this is b/c of marions salary letting him expire will let them get someone or more in the off season thus convincing bosh to resign in 2010

Yep, Mario's right. This was a straight money deal.
Toronto lost big time imo.

i really dont see how we lost
i dont think either team actually won
but toronto now has more cap space for a decent FA

Yea, It's smart depending on who they sign, They can surround bosh with more talent as an enticement to stay.

This trade made the Heat slightly better, but for the future it made Toronto better.
