Default Raptors involved in 3-way deal trade

Raptors made a trade on deadline day. No big names involved in this trade and maybe just maybe the Raptors won this trade. That is if the 7'0" Centre Patrick O'Bryant worked out.

I think O'Bryant will help the Raptors because they lack the true centre in this team. Bosh and Bargnani are both forwards playing centre position. O'Bryant is a 7'0" centre http://www.tsn.ca/nba/teams/players/bio/?id=1485 who are still raw in talent. According to TSN, potentially he can be starting centre in the future.

In this trade, they gave up PG Will Solomon, who is #4 in PG depth chart to Sacramento Kings, Boston Celtics received a conditional 2014 2nd round pick from Sacramento while Boston sent O'Bryant to the Raptors.

The 3 new players Raptors will definitely change the system. F Marion is good defensively and have some upside offensively, G Marcus Banks, I haven't really know a lot about and now C O'Bryant. Now Chris Bosh can play his regular position again.

Bosh always plays his regular position at number 4. Still sucks!

O'Bryant (O'neal and Bryant having a baby together) will be come off the bench. Bragnani plays well at center, I'd keep him there.

I also hope they don't resign Marion, don't like him. Also, trade Bosh for a decent package.

He is another guy whose rep is "I'm a wimp". Perfect fit for the Raps.
