Despite the win, the game did show a few signs how horrid our GM is. Most notably, Mickael Pietrus going for over 31 minutes in his Raptor debut. Yes, a SF who was unemployed until a couple of days ago, is already the best SF on the Raptors -- a 30-year-old, 10-year veteran who has never had a PER over 15 (and has had a double-digit PER only once in the last five years), who hasn't had a ORat better than his DRat in five years, is the best SF on the Raptors. And it took us a month into the season to sign him.
That said, I think I'm just about the most optimistic person on most of the Raptor boards when it comes to Landry Fields. I really think, once he's rehabbed that elbow, that he'll be a half-decent player again, able to pull in something resembling his rookie-year numbers. Optimistic -- or maybe just chimeric.
