How good has donyell marshall been since being traded to the toronto raptors. his almost averagings 20pts 10rebs and his been blocking shots 1.7 per game. I think he was the perfect complement to vince carter. Vinsanity finally has a quality player to dish the ball of to instead of taking all those wild shots. Had he been on the raptors roster at the start of the season he would been considered heavely for all star selection. The trade really did work out well for the raptors and untill vince and jalen rose went down they were looking pretty dangerous in the east. Hoping now with vince back they can clinch 7th or 8th spot back and get jalen back for the finals and maybe cause sum teams problems
 
Donyell has always been underrated. He was in the wrong situation in chi-town.. hes a SF/PF and we used him as a PF/C. He played a handful of games at SF for us and although he isnt a good defender in that position he is a good shooter and rebounder.

Rose also not in the proper situation at Bulls.. he needs the Ball 99% of the time in his hands to be effective.. we had 2 PG'S last year in Jay and Jamal who last season had no idea had to play off the ball. Rose was also a soft defender and Pax didnt like this and wanted his veterans to be known for their D hence why we got AD and JYD.

The Bulls have improved tremendously from it... you may look at the W/L column and say we only slightly improved but look at how Eddy Curry, Kirk Hinrich and Jamal Crawford have improved from it.

Eddy Curry = The #1 player on offense went for 18/7 last month which is awesome... had 26/14/6 against Golden State in propably the best performance of his career.

Kirk Hinrich = With Jalen Rose not hogging it anymore Kirk is the #1 ball handler and hes become one of the best PG'S in the east in his rookie season.

Jamal Crawford = Moving over to SG after playing your whole career at PG is a hard transition but hes coming into his own now. Hes still ugely streaky but his natural abilities make him a good player night in night out even when his shot isnt falling. Hes also become a good defender.

The trade was made to help these guys and Tyson, whos come back from injury so I cant comment on how its helped him. AD, JYD have been helpful.. expscially since Skiles and Pax have been cutting and benching players left right and center for not doing things right (its about time we went hard on these youngsters). E-Rob has played 33.4 seconds in the past 3 games since averaging 10 pts a game off the bench last month at 50%. This was because he didnt drive and take contact and settled for a jumper against New Orleans I think it was. He did it twice.

Fizer has been put on the IL for saying he cant wait till the FA period.. Corie Blount Waived but we still dont know why.

We needed a whole new environment change and hopefully we can do what Memphis has done this season next year.
