Sorry, Blazers. Hedo Now Going to Toronto

Turkoglu changed his mind, and will reportedly now become a Raptor: “Free agent Hedo Turkoglu has backed out of his commitment to the Portland Trail Blazers and plans to sign with the Toronto Raptors, a source close to the talks told Yahoo! Sports on Friday night. Turkoglu had agreed on a five-year, $50 million deal with the Blazers, but changed his mind and could be headed for a five-year, $56 million deal with the Raptors. Toronto would have to renounce three free agents – Shawn Marion, Carlos Delfino and Anthony Parker – to create the cap space for Turkoglu.”

    I guess…..if everything go +ve, Bosh will stay in toronto. If Raptors has a suck season as 08-09, I think BC will trade Bosh away. Marion is an important investment to build a team of Bosh. And mostly Marion only become nothing and will be very difficult part to trade away,if Bosh not goimg to service the raptorslandn. At the other hand, Hedo could be a part of the rebuilding team, after bosh away.

    we (blazer fans) didnt want him anyway. Outlaw is our dude, we need to upgrade our pg position. Plus Hedo shoved BRoy in Orlando last year for no reason. Schmuck.

    was away for the wknd and was shocked when I saw the paper..I just pray that Colangelo can pull something out of his ass and get AP back..he’s a classy,solid,bench player that all Raps fans would love to have around. And in the case of Blazer fans, I dont mean to sound like an ass, but this is the position that the Raps are usually in, so in a way it is nice haha

  • Pancho

    The Raps have no defense now. The Eastern Conference has the best defensive teams, it is still going to be hard for the to win games on the road. So at best I see them fighting for the last playoff spot and failing.

    Anybody named teddy-no-hair is crazy. Marion’s all defense, he gets like 10 rebounds at 6’7″, imagine 6’10″? Yeah I know crazy, and blocks, 1.7. anyway, just backin my man Marion up.

    Come back to Phoenix!!!!

    and you suck… like the raptors or should I say, baby t-rex’s

    Meh.

  • James aka…

    We liked marion, he just didn’t like us. He didn’t like losing here, and wouldn’t take 8 per year from us, so turk was plan B. Now Marion can go somewhere possibly for 5.6 a year and sulk a bit more.
