Colangelo Thinks Highly Of Triano

Raptors general manager Bryan Colangelo has been impressed by the job interim coach Jay Triano has done and he remains on the team's radar for the full-time gig.

"The message is the right message; the method of communicating is the right method," Colangelo said Monday. "I've been high on him the entire time."

The Raptors are 20-36 under Triano, but the organization is still encouraged.

"Jay's done a solid job; he was given a bad set of circumstances," Colangelo said.

Bulls Like Bosh Over Stoudemire?

If the Bulls make a move for a big man this summer, they reportedly rate Chris Bosh over Amare Stoudemire.

Rumor around the league is that Chicago prefers Bosh's personality, and believes that he is a better teammate than Stoudemire.

At this point in the season, it appears more likely that the Raptors will shop Bosh, but changes could be coming for the Suns as well.

Warriors To Make Another Pitch For Bosh?

The Raptors are unsure of whether or not they'll shop Chris Bosh this summer, but sources indicate that the Warriors are interested in the All-Star forward.

Golden State reportedly inquired about Bosh prior to the Feb. 19 trade deadline, but Toronto wasn't interested in making a major move.

If the Raptors do decide to scrap their current roster and move Bosh, the Bulls are expected to make a play as well.
