Gradg the rults of the tra of Rudy Gay to Toronto, Ed Davis, Tayshn Prce, and At Daye to Memphis, and Jose Calron to Detro.
Wh the Memphis Grizzli tradg Rudy Gay to Toronto, which sends Jose Calron to Detro and Ed Davis to Memphis as the Pistons send Tayshn Prce and At Daye to Memphis, we exame the rults for all three teams and gra out.
GRIZZLI TRA RUDY GAY TO RAPTORS THREE-TEAM AL WH PISTONS
The Grizzli will tra Rudy Gay to the Raptors a al that also giv Pistons forward Tayshn Prce to Memphis. * rudy gay trade raptors *
Gay is arguably now the bt fenr on the Raptors, but given they're the 25th-ranked team fensive efficiency, we're not sayg much. It's mostly that the Raptors spent their bt tra chip to get Rudy Gay, which is kd of like breakg open your piggy bank you've been savg for three years to buy the mid-size luxury r. But you jt n't look at this move as anythg but siways, unls Gay is able to blow up and live up to his ntract.
Year after year, Memphis would hope that this would be the year that Gay would explo, put all together, ph his game further. The 2011 playoff n was the bt thg that has ever happened to the anchise, and is also the worst thg that uld have happened to Gay wh the fans.
GRA THE TRA: KGS ACQUIRE RUDY GAY OM RAPTORS HUGE TRA
We gra the seven-player al volvg Rudy Gay between the Sacramento Kgs and the Toronto Raptors that has been reported. * rudy gay trade raptors *
There will be sad fans Memphis wh Gay gone, but there will also be a rolute belief the team is better, jt whout Gay.
But the Grizzli stead get a veteran who fs very much to what they do, n produce on the perimeter off the dribble (a key piece they need to get return for Gay; the ia that they uld jt get back shooters and bigs put their system limbo), and is an excellent fenr.
REVISG THE RUDY GAY TRA FOR THE RAPTORS: IS WORKG?
The Toronto Raptors were major need of a change directn. The Rudy Gay al was the start of that change and got thgs motn. * rudy gay trade raptors *
The Memphis Grizzli have trad forward Rudy Gay to the Toronto Grizzli receive pot guard Jose Calron as part of the al, and routed Calron's $10.
RUDY GAY TRA ANALYSIS: WHY MEMPHIS MA OUT LIKE BANDS
The Memphis Grizzli trad away Rudy Gay to save some money and may still have e out better on the other si. We gra each team volved this three-team al. * rudy gay trade raptors *
In Prce, the Grizzli get a rpected, if not agg, small forward who'll give them nsirable savgs over the $37 ln owed Gay the next two seasons. Wh the reported tra that the Sacramento Kgs have moved four players to acquire Rudy Gay and two other players om the Toronto Raptors, we're takg a look at all of the movg parts and salary implitns the al. Now Ujiri has moved Andrea Bargnani and Rudy Gay ($60 ln mted over this season and next season bed) exchange for valuable tra assets/role players and a draft pick the tra wh the Knicks.
While mtg $19 ln to the books next year for Gay is a pretty big al for them, they now have a big expirg ntract headg to next season of a very talented player. The key to how much you like this tra for the Kgs is how much you believe Gay is salvageable as an impact player. It will be tertg to see if he valu Gay as a long-term piece or if he tri to flip him this summer to a ntenr lookg for some "srg punch.
RUDY GAY TRAD TO RAPTORS
The Grizzli, Raptors and Pistons agreed to a six-player tra Wednday that sent star swgman Rudy Gay to Toronto. * rudy gay trade raptors *
And then Colangelo's swan song move was acquirg Rudy Gay and the $37 ln owed to him over the next two seasons. They were bankg on the player that Gay was supposed to bee and not the unrperformg, overpaid wg player he was wh the Memphis Grizzli at the time of the al.
RUDY GAY TO KGS 7-PLAYER AL
The Toronto Raptors have trad Rudy Gay to the Sacramento Kgs, the teams announced Monday, ls than 24 hours after they reached an agreement. * rudy gay trade raptors *
At the time of the tra, I wrote that there were plenty of smart reasons for the Raptors to acquire Rudy Gay. Of the players who played at least 1, 000 mut for the Raptors last season, only Amir Johnson had a higher ratg than Gay, and they were the only players on the team (along wh Kyle Lowry) to have a posive ratg. The Raptors didn't jt play better once they acquired their new small forward; Rudy Gay also played much better by creasg his shootg percentage by 1.

THUNR WAIVE RUDY GAY, VETERAN BE FREE AGENT
The Rudy Gay era Toronto appears to be over. Acrdg to multiple reports, the Raptors have agreed to ship the veteran swgman to the Sacramento Kgs a multi-player swap on Sunday, along wh Qucy Acy and Aaron Gray. * rudy gay trade raptors *
What we see now Toronto is a team wh a foc-garnerg player on offense Gay -- someone who n grab the attentn of the fense and e his talent as gravy to suck the fenrs his way when he has the ball. From there on, they have to fd the fensive balance we saw two years ago and plementary players steppg up to make the fense pay for givg too much attentn to Gay when he has the ball. And maybe Rudy Gay won't even be volved wh the anizatn a year om now if Ujiri n get someone to take his ntract.

As has been mentned before this space, was always a matter of when, not if, the Grizzli would tra Gay, even after a recent tra of Marree Speights and Wayne Ellgton got Memphis unr the luxury-tax thrhold for this year.
