But I have had other times where interviews timing could not have been better. You take the good with the bad and it evens out in the end.

It was a good interview and gave some nice insights into POB career to-date.

While he didn't look like a star, he had a very good mid-range jump shot and was composed and competent (abiet at a time of year when its hard to tell). POB is still very young, best described as project/prospect but after seeing him play, he does have a chance to be a Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2450745303548734819.post-61351459597085968122009-07-05T14:30:23.802-04:002009-07-05T14:30:23.802-04:00I don't think you're considering the benef...I don't think you're considering the benefit of all the salary we had to dump to make this move.

Patriots in football are likely the pest example of that in sports right now. <br /><br />Just assuming you will be able to dump bad contracts is also bad thinking.

Regardless, the Raps are fine long-term even if Bosh decides to leave. Turk will be good for 3/4 years of his contract. Then it will be an expiring contract with value. If Bosh stays they will have this starting five for years...if they want it. <br /><br />Regarding the backup PG, they just solved that. Turk is the back-up PG. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
