Travis best to Raps?
I for one hope NOT! I think it is doug smiths idiotic bumblings.

SPORTS REPORTER
As Rob Babcock decides his next move to plug a gaping point guard hole on the Raptor roster, he may not find anyone willing to buy what he's selling.
Apparently spurned by draft pick Roko Ukic, who opted to play in Spain rather than become the backup to Toronto starter Rafer Alston, Babcock said he hopes to find a veteran willing to take fill that role for a couple of years — at relatively low pay — or until Toronto can convince Ukic to try the NBA.

Re: Travis best to Raps?
Meh! Best is a'ight I wouldn't mind him if we got Calderone. Best is a good character guy and would end up being 3rd string most of season. He'd be cheap.

Re: Travis best to Raps?
I think it's pure crap.
Travis Best isn't the player we're looking for.
Maybe on a min. contract.

agreed - Best does not fit in with what they *say* they are trying to do - he is not a good defender and is a me first type.

Re: Travis best to Raps?
If we can get Best for cheap I think that he can bring a lot more to the table than Cook.... though signing Calderon..trading for Best..AND Rafer Alston will result in sour faces because of the division in playing time. As well as little room for an Alvin Williams comeback to PG (though many speculate he will only be able to play the 2)

Re: Travis best to Raps?
Yeah i would'nt mind adding him to our roster. We need an unselfish pg to give us some leadership. He would go great with Bosh also. He's a yellowjacket, and GT has produced some very well pg's. Who agrees?

Re: Travis best to Raps?
I would rather have Cook than Best since Cook could pass the ball prety well

Re: Travis best to Raps?
It's real simple, actually.
Cook > Best.
