2005 Off-Season

Hey guys. With training camp less than a week away, how would you grade the work RB did this off-season? I know we've yet to add our 3rd PG but generally speaking, do you see improvement or more improvement needed?


Additions: +



• Charlie Villanueva - • Age: 21 • 2005-2006 Salary: $2 million • Position: F

Can play multiple positions... Runs the floor well... Good passing and scoring skills... Must improve intensity and concentration.

• Joey Graham - • Age: 23 • 2005-2006 Salary: $1.4 million • Position: F

Quite a physical specimen... Chiseled body... Very strong... Very athletic... Pretty good defender... Makes no mistake from the foul line.

• Jose Calderon - • Age: 24 • 2005-2006 Salary: $800k • Position: G

A poor man's Earl Watson... Plays very aggressive... Solid defense... Great legs... Very athletic... Likes to push the ball... Won't score much... Outside shot needs work.

Subtractions: -



• Donyell Marshall - • Age: 32 • 2005-2006 Salary: $5 million • Position: F

Good athleticism... Has three-point range... Able to play both guard positions... Takes care of the ball... Not very talented on the offensive end.

would givei it a B. Our only significant loss was Donyell. thats a pretty big blow but we added 3 young players who are going to be good players in this league. remeber we also added Roko Ukic who could be a huge lift when he comes to play for the Raptors in 2-4 years
