The Raptors wanted defense and defense they get. Houston has a very nice team now. Too much good swingmen, though. That could be a problem.

I agree.

Scoring power, gotta love it!

I love it for me. Gives me a strong defender, and it's alomst addition by subtraction, ie it should get Vince and Boozer more touches.

yea, good trade raptors, a lock defender might be just what you needed

yeah, too bad it makes me even older :)

But Christie will likely start, depending on how Ellis does this sim.

Then I have pretty good defense.

And look for another potential BIG trade from the Raps (Vince).

I was dissapointed with Christie last year, and was quite happy to play Hunter Summitt ahead of him.

Weatherspoon is an expiring I did not need as I will have to max Yao after this year, with a big three of Yao, Peja and Finley the pick I give is a low one.

Losing a player like Chrisite is always gunna be a big loss on the defensive side of the ball, but he jsut wasn't contributing enough to warrant minutes...

Ming, Howard, Peja, Finley, Ward with Summitt off the bench is good enough for now...

For me, Finley was leaving this year, and so will be Christie and Spoon, so I have nothing to lose. Plus, Christie gives me a legit shot, now that I can defend swingmen, and I get a pick.
