17.5pts, 9rebs, 1.8blks, 39.6FG% (with a disgraceful Game 3, 4 and 5) = Not a superstar. Makes Dirk look reasonable

I was talking only about blocks, not his whole game. Also, Toronto wasn't ready for the playoffs... and I think Mitchell should be the one to blame. We'll see what happens in the future, tho.

Bosh averaged under 2 blocks a game in the playoffs

He averaged 1.8, note how TMC said almost 2 BPG. Anyways, I wouldn't call 17.5 and 9 a choke, especially considering how young he is, and that it's his first playoff appearance.

You're nuts. There's nobody on the team I wouldn't trade for Bosh. Nobody.

But you don't have to trade close to everybody

Not really different to where we are right now. If Baron misses more than 30 games, we're a lottery team...

Why?. The replacements came from free agents that we signed for the minimum, like Azu or Barnes. It's not like we have big stars waiting on the bench.

Bosh is something special but without resigning Barnes and Azu (who I hope can be as good in more minutes as he would be playing after such a trade), the team would be depleted completely outside of the first 5 guys. Just a scary thought should one player happen to get injured

Barnes will (hopefully) be resigned, but we've also got Azu, Zarko, Josh Powell, and Pietrus coming off the books... AND Cabbage is opting out. Right now, we've got SIX players that might not return. Mully will pick up SOMEBODY out there.

And we have three draft picks. I'd be happy bringing back Barnes and using the picks to fill the rest of the roster.
