Raptors call 10am press conference to announce signing(s)
Nothing confirmed on the identity. Announced on the FAN590. But I would gather its pornboy and possibly Parker. If there is anyone out there with connections at customs or 4 star downtown hotels, please notify reception of anyone coming through at 6'-6" or above.

Re: Raptors call 10am press conference to announce signing(s)
might just be chris. it's been awfully silent on his front for a couple of days- which is strange considering bron, dwyane and melo have all been inked quickly.

I am going to say that its Bosh and a 6-year extension plus Parker and Garbajosa...the trifacta.

Re: Raptors call 10am press conference to announce signing(s)
whos pornboy??
i think garbajosa will be signed tomorrow for sure, considering toronto is almost his only choice to play...
parker may get signed... i hope he does tomorrow, but i dont think the press conference is for him...
Bosh will probably also announce his resigning, as it has been talked about, for a couple of weeks, but nothing major has been said except he will be probably be signing
it could even be a suprise nba free agent signing, ie house, salmon.. likely candidates...
i cant wait to see what collangelo says next

Bosh is limited to five-years or less for extensions as the deal starts on the qualifying offer year.

The Raptors have called a news conference for this morning at which they are expected to announce the signing of Anthony Parker, a guard with Maccabi Tel Aviv in Israel. The Raptors are also close to formally announcing the signing of Spanish forward Jorge Garbajosa. The anticipated deals have been put off briefly so all the necessary paperwork can be completed.
"I know that it's going to get done," said Bobie Singleton, an agent with Chicago-based CMSG Sport, the management company that represents Parker. "There's still a couple things that have to get worked out. It's going to happen."

The Raptors definitely aren't sitting idle.

Re: Raptors call 10am press conference to announce signing(s)
the conference is about the signing of AP... it's all over the news in Israel... last night on tv, they made this "goodbye clip" for Parker and i wish you could see this...i almost cried. they showed his best highlights and moments from his time with Maccabi and it's just the end of an era here in Tel-Aviv after he leaves..... AP8 (2-time Euroleague MVP) is the best player ever to play in Israel and the best American EVER outside the US...
Congrats Raptors ! you have just earned a TERRIFIC player... such a great personality and talent... this dude is just unbelievable... you are going to LOVE him...
