Rose should be a nice compliment to Carter. Rose will look a lot better as the second option rather than the first.

I like also how now Bosh is the third option. He's been playing great lately and put up some good numbers, but we cant rely too much on a rookie who isnt at his full potential. So a player like Rose will be nice, but I'm surprised it was him, I always thought the Raptors were going to get Rasheed Wallace.

Well Id be glad its Rose instead of Wallace if I were you. Aside from the whining(and I can't think of many sports players that don't whine), he is a good guy. He gets along with players, respects refs, and for the most part coaches(compared to Wallace anyway), and he is a good citizen. Plus I think hes a better player than Sheed. Sheed is a team cancer.

The Rockets are lookin pretty good now. Expect good things from Donyell, too.
