He is probably getting paid in Canadian dollars, so he go shop in Buffalo on his off days and have some change left over.

All these guys that are playing for Toronto their salaries keep going up almost daily vs their American counterparts. That's a great bonus for the guys that play in Canada near the Canadian/American border.

i might actually agree with you, it looks like he's doing a great job impacting the raptors so that they lose basketball games

Washington let a high first rounder walk without getting a thing in return. At least we got a couple picks for our late first rounder.

We exchanged Delfino for Hayes and two second rounders. Certainly a better deal than Washington got - although they may not care. It remains to be seen whether it's a better deal than Toronto got.

Can't compare Detroit deal and Toronto deal. Hayes fits Detroit system, Deflino didn't. On the other hand, Delfino fits Toronto system quite a bit better.

Please re-read what I wrote. I didn't give any description of Deflino's game - just some (not all) of his numbers.

Have a nice day.

Luckily for me, I watch every single NBA game, so I'm qualified to comment on them.

My 4 dual tuner DVR's and 3x3 grid of plasma TV's combined with League Pass makes it all possible. Also, I fast forward through free throws, commercials, and most of the transition game.

Yeah, but you really need to watch each game at least twice. Better yet, just send an email to Chris McCoskey and ask him about Delfino. Chris is a serious journalist and he went to college and everything.

Yeah, I read it again. It starts out "Toronto lost again." How do you expect me to take it other than a jab at Delfino?

Don't try to read between the lines here. I just merely stated the fact. Toronto is 2-3 on the season and it wasn't their first loss. And in my opinion Delfino is not going to make or break the Raptors. He maybe a piece, but not more than that.

Delfino's problem is that no one the Raptor's plays any defense. As for his value, all you need to know is that at the end of every game, he guarding the opponent's best player. So far he has drawn VC, Paul Pierce, Rashard Lewis, Iguodala, and Mike Redd.

As far as Hayes is concerned, he is a poor man's Kapono, a perfect fit for Detroit since his lack of D isn't a concern when you have JMax and Rasheed on the floor.
