Well, if they dont intend to play Turner at the 3 then there's absolutely no reason to pick up Ellis because that depreciates their 2nd OVERALL pick from last year, they'd be throwing in that towel way too early (and I think Turner can definitely develop into a solid 2 who can do a little bit of everything). Guess that's why we're hearing about Chris Kaveman now. I like Jrue too, and realistically Ellis isn't a very good fit unless they then move ANOTHER piece, which seems a bit unlikely.

Isn't Holiday like 6'4" or 6'5"? He sounds like the perfect complement to Ellis in my opinion. It's Turner at SF that has me worried.NFL: Bills

The Toronto Raptors may get an unexpected break as they try to remake their team in the wake of a 22-60 season.
Brazilian veteran Leandro Barbosa is considering opting out of the final year of a contract scheduled to pay him $7.6-million for 2011-12.
According to his brother Arturo, the shooting guard is receiving feelers from some top club teams at home who want to bring back the top Brazilian player of his generation.
“The situation is this: it would not be responsible of me as his brother to not consider the Brazil option,” said Arturo Barbosa. “Leandro loves Toronto he loves the fans and the relationships with everybody, but business is business. An athlete’s career is short and there are a lot of sponsorship opportunities [in Brazil] especially with the World Cup in 2014 and the Olympics in 2016.”

I have a lot of respect for Barbosa personally. If the guy wants to go back to his home and be a big deal in his homeland, all the power to him.NFL: Bills

I agree which is why I think it'll only happen if they've given up on Turner (which I don't think they have).Comment

I'd say they need more of a Tyson Chandler. They don't need a great scorer, but they need a guy who is more of a threat than Joel Anthony but can still play defense.NFL: Pittsburgh Steelers
