A report in the northwest indicates that Toronto executive Bryan Colangelo has placed the 'untouchable' tag on point guard Jose Calderon, according to The Oregonian.
The Raptors appear content in trying to deal T.J. Ford and his contract this summer, with a host of teams interested in the speedy, but injury-prone, passer.
The report was initially heard on 'Wheels After Work', a radio show with Brian Wheeler, the voice of the Blazers.

The Raptors have begun their draft preparation as the NBA's pre-draft camp kicks off on Monday in Florida, according to The Toronto Star.
"For me, it's a chance to initiate or follow up on some trade discussions as well," Toronto's President and General Manager Bryan Colangelo said Monday. "It's like a basketball convention."
Toronto has a lot to do, with an inevitable trade involving one of their point guards - T.J. Ford and Jose Calderon.
"Your basketball staff can mingle with the staffs of other teams and perhaps get some information on what teams might be thinking," Coangelo said. "It seems everyone is picking everyone else's brains."

The Bulls and Raptors might be able to work out a deal involving T.J. Ford this summer, according to The Daily Herald.
It is widely known that Toronto is looking to rid themselves of their point guard controversy (Ford and Jose Calderon), and the Bulls are in need of some new blood at point guard.
If Chicago would prefer Calderon over Ford, they will likely have to offer Toronto either Gordon or Hinrich. If not, a swap involving someone like Andres Nocioni could net them Ford.
