It would appear that the goldenstate bloggers are a little crazy. I understand the Amare deal’s though the Suns continue to confuse everyone on what they are trying to do but I do not think the trade for Bosh would even work considering the Raptors have a full roster (baring the POB buyout). Also, when was that post made as Bellineli is already a Raptor so how could GS include him in a deal? I love watching fans of teams (including the Raps) come up with completely ridiculous trade scenario’s where their team gets All-stars and the other team gets scraps. Unfortunately, as long as teams actually make trades like that (which the current trade rules were suppose to stop) fans can make those suggestions and not be far from the truth.

p.s. Don’t get me started on the NBA trade rules which I believe were designed to favour the best teams in the league and keep the dogs down where they are.
