Since Chris Bosh's not so surprising departure from Toronto, a lot of fingers have been pointed. No one understands this better than Raptors GM Bryan Colangelo. People talk about the pressure being high in large markets such as New York, or LA; but, how about having a whole country crouching, ready to scrutinize your every wrong move.
It would be to foolish to say that Colangelo has been the perfect general manager. Bryan was in the drivers seat for the 2006 draft, the Jermaine O'Neal deal, a couple of thrash contracts given out to Hedo Turkoglu and Jose Calderon, and got to helplessly watch first hand as the highest scoring player in your franchises history packs his bags for Miami.
According to reports however, Colangelo just may have righted a few of those wrongs, and won back the support of Raptors fans right across Canada.
According to the TSN , the Raptors are involved in 2 seperate trades that would look like this:
To Toronto:
Leandro Barbosa
Tyson Chandler
Boris Diaw
Dwayne Jones
To Charlotte:
Jose Calderon
Reggie Evans
To Phoenix:
Hedo Turkoglu
