the trade  include

going to Indiana  T.J. Ford, Rasho Nestervoic and  the 17th pick

going to toronto -  Jermaine O'neil.

My thoughts in it, i am not really familar with O'neil so if someone could help me out, will he be a good team mate for Bosh, help the team win, things like that.

This moves puts the raptors at least in the top 4 in the eastern conference. O'neal can bang down low and has a nice outside game as well. Toronto already has a great 3-pt game and know they have a guy who they can throw the ball too in the low post and who commands double teams. Bosh floats around on the perimeter to much for me.

O'neal will also be able to guard guys like Dwight howard in the post. The didn't have the muscle to compete with howard in the playoffs, O'neal changes that. Solid move for the raptors.

assuming oneal isn't on the court on crutches, this is a good move for the raptors

Bosh and O'Neal, along with some shooters, could be somewhat reminiscent of the '99-'03 Spurs teams that played a very nice Hi-Low post game with Duncan and Robinson...They'll be interesting next year.

O'neal is a solid low post guy, but he came in the league the same year as Kobe.  He's getting a little up there in age but still has at least three or four good years left. 

This move was for the Raptors to win now.

O'neil was a beast before his last two injury plagued seasons. If he can stay healthy him and Bosh could be a lethal combo!!!!
