Babcock Gets The Boot

Raptors

I was never a fan of the Rob Babcock hiring.  He quickly began to prove me right when he selected Rafael Araujo with the eighth pick of the 2004 draft.  Then, there was the Vince Carter trade.

A year and a half after he was hired, Babcock has been fired by the Toronto Raptors.  "I'm disappointed that Rob was the wrong choice for us," said Richard Peddie, who hired Babcock. "In hindsight (I) should have got someone who was more proven."

You didn't need hindsight Dick.  You just needed to chat with me.
