we would have paid him what he was worth... he said no1 stuck up for him... bosh publicly said he wanted him back...(until he got ford)

mike james talks too much... even tho he says teh fans are behind him, we know he hogged the ball too much

also he said that he should be paid what he is worth...well before last year, i had never heard of him, i dont remember him starting, so y would u pay alot for a player who had 1 breakout starting year, but u dont know if it was fluke or not... he was in a town were he could take any shot he wanted especially when bosh was injured... he was a solid bench player ( so ive heard) but hes only had 1 year as a good starter... there is no way of telling if he will be a quality starter in an environment where his first option isnt shoot first and he has alot of others demanding the ball alot... especially minny, with kg, who gets the ball like 90% of the time...

Mike James is the worst thing to ever happen to the Toronto Raptors. Period.

He'll never smell success on a successful team unless he reverts back to his second-guard-off-the-bench-defensive-hustle-specialist role he filled in Detroit.

I don't get why some of you are so harsh towards mike I like his game yes he hogged a bit but at the same time he was solid all he needed to do was shut up

i would argue and say that Arajuo did less for the team than Mike James.

fact of the matter is that he didn't fit into colangelo's plan.

this backlash on james is kinda funny...ppl really have short term memory...fact of the matter is, the raps dont even win 27 games last yr if it wasnt for james...

i wouldnt have mind him as a combo guard/ 6th man off the bench, but obviously his ego and contract demand ( anything over 3yrs is too much, imo) made him a non option...of course, no one wants to mention bosh slamming him on the radio as another reason y he wouldnt come back, but i guess we'll have to wait for the day if/when bosh leaves to say anything bad about a raptors player, just like ppl are doing with cv and james.......

ATCQ

you're right... we might have won 30.

trick

You're right. I'm sure the combo of Derrick Martin and Andre Barrett logging all of the PG minutes would have been better for the team.
