" I'm Ryan -- the Toronto Raptors revamp the roster after -- to make the playoffs last season for preview on joined by Thomas like get there all the Toronto's done -- after winning just 33 games last year the Raptors have made some changes. One on their faces as he knew Turkoglu housing going to fit in Toronto played alongside Chris Bosh. "

" Well basically I mean he's an equally -- the whole lot but this offense has been. You know sort of very one dimensional and been all the shooters in the past. Eagle another shooter but a shooter who can distribute and and and he makes everybody around them as good like for better so I mean. And instead of instead of having like Jason Kapono stand as a three point line and -- near the three point line and you know all those guys we're gonna have you know Turkoglu. Played a pick and roll game. And and distributing the ball so that everybody gets involved and it's not just going to be guys out on the perimeter doing all the work."

" Turkoglu is certainly not the most athletic guy and the Raptors forty have to slow players like Jose Calderon they drafted a great athlete Demar Derozan from USA what you think there's still going to be over match. By bigger faster T."

" Yeah that could be the case but again I mean it Derozan. I don't really think accounting -- for too much this year they want him to progressed. I mean he is very athletic any easy another element that they haven't had in the past. But I mean it's you know he's caught just twenty years old to 21 in August. The I think they're going to be that they're going to be -- up against some of the some of the more athletic teams. But I think that there's still far far ahead of where that where this time Lester."

" Finally Chris Bosh part of that big 2010 free agent class LeBron James or Dwyane Wade most people think he's going to leave Toronto."

" What do Raptors have to do this year to persuade him to stay."

" Basically they have to -- of their competitive and that they're winning I think. I'm not sure it's gonna take. A trip to the second round in the playoffs. A -- suggested and that may that may be the case. Bosh bosh is. You know contrary to all the reports using coming out of the states. Bosh is he's not unhappy in Toronto he just unhappy that the team hasn't progressed and hasn't you know hasn't -- did date -- they took. A run two years into the playoffs last year or two years ago and and lost early to Orlando -- before that a lot and enters week. So it is -- get and that last year of course they missed the playoffs altogether so they can get back to the playoffs maybe win around I think. Think that might be enough I don't think it's they'll have to -- home. A whole bunch but the -- is shown that they're interested in and competing. And I think Michelangelo. Certainly got up on the right up on the right foot with that in that regard -- those signing Turkoglu and bringing bureau's numbers are drafting Derozan."

" Mike thanks for the it I'd draw your basketball needs keep relied on the foxsports.com. I'm Bryan Webber will he next time."
