I know you're a basketball fan, but I think in this case you're thinking of a hockey return. The 2 firsts and 2 seconds are nothing and never will be, unless Phoenix has amazing scouts to exploit 2 25+ picks and 2 50+ picks. I believe Bosh only got us a 1st, but those were two different situations. If he wanted to come to Toronto, I'm sure Colangelo would have offered up next years' 1st, which would have been much higher, but alas, Captain Canada decided to take LA. Phoenix is screwed as well, now and for the future.
