Business-wise it's awesome. They get rid of Jalen's huge contract, along with Vince's. They get SAR's contract, which is huge... but is on it's LAST YEAR!!
Vince isn't that good. Reef can pretty much score as much at ease as he can.
Your team is better off without Jalen Rose. Derek Anderson is better.
The only bad thing i can see about it is that Vince Carter is more popular, and ticket sales could drop.
Oh, and it kinda sucks that Reef and Bosh play the same position... luckily they're both versatile. But it will only be for one more year![/color]

not at all, they get redundant players on the team, SHareef was angry in Portland because he was playing SF, or coming off the bench, he won't be happy doing the same in Toronto, and he's not starting over Bosh.
NVE will also be coming off the bench behind Rafer, therefore it's another redundant player.
The Raptors will get cap space, but let's be serious here we aren't front runners for the big name player in the FA market.
Ray Allen would get more money in Seattle, Michael Redd will not be looking at Toronto when we don't have anything special for him to be going to, we won't give him more money than others, and we aren't his hometown Ohio.
Zydrunas Ilguaskas would be stupid not to re-sign wiht Cleveland and Lebron, and what do we have left, Sromile Swift, Ronald Murray? Joe Johnson could be decent, but what in Toronto would make him want to go there as opposed to somewhere like Denver?
We won't have a winning team, so what's going to attract them?
