SportsIllustrated wrote:As Carter tries not to carom off the walls of his pad, three floors up in the same building, the eagerness of his teammate Tracy McGrady is less apparent. If the NBA blueprint shows that successful teams boast dynamic duos, the Raptors have a tantalizing one in Carter and McGrady. Like Carter, the 20-year-old McGrady has dazzling skills; Bulls general manager Jerry Krause has likened him to Scottie Pippen. But upon sauntering back to Toronto after his summer in Florida, McGrady immediately revealed himself to be in midseason form when it came to sleeping and chilling out. The abiding question: Can McGrady overcome his somnolence, accelerate his development and maximize the effectiveness of his mutually respectful—and deep-relationship with Carter on the court this season? "No problem," McGrady says. "Vince is hyper, and I'm laaaaid-back. But on the court, I'm going to step up."


Back to the 15th of April 2010, the Toronto Raptors 2009-2010 campaign officially came to an end on Wednesday night with an astounding 131 – 113 victory over the New York Knicks. One surprising moment in this evening’s contest was the announcement by Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment after the game that the present GM, Bryan Colangelo, was relieved of his duties and was going to be replaced by a novice named John Doe.

With the season coming to an end, all members of the ACC’s sold out audience cheered while raising a sign that stated ‘We Want More, CB4.’ This surprisingly pleasant event may not serve any purpose in keeping Bosh in Raptor red, but at the very least it does bring a warm ending to a Raptor who truly deserves a lot of praise and appreciation for his tenured work with the club. Bosh is amongst several big name players that will be available to the entire association this off-season.

Remember 2000 | Offseason

With the Raptors keen to revamp the roster (again) and put all the disappointments behind, they sent former West Memphis High standout Sonny Weems to the Orlando Magic for a first round pick. Weems, who averaged 7.5 points per game last season, showed great signs of improvement after being given almost 20 minutes per contest. DeMar DeRozan, one of Weems' closest friends during his time with the Raptors, broke down in tears during an interview:

"He was my best friend. We called each other "f-buddy" because we were so close. I mean, we ate KFC every night and also did shuffling moves together trying to improve our foot speed. He even went as far as putting Clearasil on my acne. It's gonna be sad, you know."

In other news, disgruntled small forward Hedo Turkoglu was shipped to the Sacramento Kings with former UNLV guard Marcus Banks in exchange for Dominic McGuire and Andres Nocioni. The Kings were widely known to have inquired for Banks during trade deadline last season after it was rumoured that the Raptors have placed Banks into the trading block. Turkoglu is widely famous for coming to Toronto in accordance with his wife's (Banu) wishes even though his wife has never been to the city and is currently residing in Florida. Turkoglu is also known for being such a pussy after he talked to the Turkish media about not coming back to Toronto to play for 10 million dollars because he wanted the franchise to take the blame for his shitty performance last season and do everything he says while organizing a system that revolved around him.

In a bizzare turnaround in the lottery, the Raptors ended up with the sixth pick. The Raptors used this pick to draft Syracuse swingman Wesley Johnson and the 21st pick (acquired from Magic) for versatile combo forward Damion James. The free-agent trio of LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, and Chris Bosh decided to pick up their player options and stay with their teams for one more year. Trying to take advantage of the last offseason to lure Bosh long-term, Raptors GM John Doe signed Mike Miller to a 10 million, three-year contract. The Raptors then sent Amir Johnson (sign-and-trade) to the Washington Wizards for JaVale McGee, and in a separate deal, Andrea Bargnani and a first round pick to the Golden State Warriors for Anthony Randolph. To finish off the offseason, the Raptors sent Jarrett Jack to the Miami Heat for Mario Chalmers.

Free agent acquisiton Mike Miller was told by the front office NOT TO REPORT yet as he will be placed on the inactive list until December 15, a move to prepare for a trade.

Good slam by DeRozan, but Rockets win with permanent injuried Yao.

I mean Yao has a lot of injuries in a year. This performance is one of his performances at the season.
