We also lost Childs, and im not sure whats happening with Dell.Originally posted by Shadows
Ok. Here we are half way through the summer and I'm lookin at what we have done this season.
Add
-Lindsey Hunter
-Chris Jefferies
Lose
-Keon Clark
-Kareem Rush
-Tracy Murray
When the Raptors traded Rush away I knew this was to save salary to re-sign Keon. I was fine with this providing we re-sign Clark great move. This morning I wake up turn on the fan-590 like a normal day and expect nothing of it until I hear.
" Breaking news the Raptors have dropped their qualifying offer to Keon making him a FA".
Now I stand today an angry Raptor fan and pissed at GG.
-Why trade Rush if we are going to lose Keon?
-Why not keep Clark as a RFA to try and do a sign and trade to get something?
These questions pop into my head right away. Then I hear on the Fan Keon will be on in 2 minutes. So I wait near the radio trying to find answers for my questions and Keon comes on. He says
" All they had to do is offer me a contract that would put them 2 mill over the cap that's all"
2 MILLION, 2 MILLION. We are talking about a team who pays Vince 75 Million we are talking about MAPLE LEAFS SPORTS AND ENTERTAINMENT who have hundreads and hundreads of millions to play with and they are worried about going over the cap by 2 MILLION.
I am a really pissed Raptor fan as you read this. Looking at what we have compared to what we lost I would be suprised if this team can come close to .500 when this season is said and done.
But I agree, I am also upset with what has happened. AD and Hakeem/Montross up front.....blah! Hello 1st round knock out.
