Green Bandwagon :: NBA Preview: Raptors and Nets
Meanwhile, if I were a Raptors fan I would be crossing my fingers, hoping Chris Bosh’s foot problems are behind him. Speaking of Bosh, I’m not sure where I stand on his nickname - CB4. Yes it is a blatant Chris Rock reference. At the same time Chuck Swirsky
allegedly came up with it, which raises several questions. Does Swirsky’s involvement automatically devalue the name? Has Swirsky seen or heard of CB4 the movie? And on and on. In case you were wondering I’m not a big fan of the Swirsk.

Check out Toronto’s roster. Something has to give. Although I would imagine that Jason Kapono’s presence makes Luke Jackson obsolete. Even then some guys have to go. Finally, I am excited to see what Carlos Delfino can do for the Raptors. He might surprise some people.

Bonus Point - Should people be obligated to mention how terrible the Atlantic Division was last season when referencing the Toronto’s first division crown?
