Apologies for Lack of Posting; Raptors get European man at Last

Hello everyone. I just wanted to make a quick blog post stating why I haven't blogged in awhile. It's simply because I just felt a break was necessary; that's all. OK, now back to the main point. If you'll recall, the Toronto Raptors had signed a European small forward to an offer sheet on July 8th and his team (the Denver Nuggets) had until a week to match the offer. Well, they didn't so the man is now an official Raptor. His name is Linus Kieza and, while this is yet ANOTHER European player, he will more than make up for the departure of free agent Antoine Wright who has signed with the Sacramento Kings. Plus, Kieza has been on record to say (while we waited to see if Denver would match the Toronto offer) that he didn't want Denver to match and that Toronto has a young, exciting city. When's the last time you EVER heard anyone say this about the Raptors? If Kieza stays true to his word, I think Bryan Colangelo should be congratulated for this move, not shamed. Here's the link for the story: The Kieza Machine is Here!

Also too, Toronto just announced yesterday that they received another player, centre David Anderson from the Houston Rockets. Here's that story: Perimeter Centre Acquired

Have a good day!
