Former Raptor discussion thread 3.0

[mdenny]

What happened to all the fred vanvleet posters that dominated this thread the first month of the season?

Remember when morpheus said "fred vanvleet sold his soul to play for houston". Remember that fool was making a new video every couple weeks about how toxic fred was that the most active posters here loved to reference?

Sengun and Jalen green rank where in terms of young player breakout years? They both gotta be top 10 lol. Under the tutelage of the most selfish player yah?

Where did all the fred obsessed haters go?

And before you attempt to spin this....I WILL start quoting the "former raptor thread" from the summer and beginning of this season.

I don't care if you changed your username. Your other/old username will get put on blast too.

How many times can someone be wrong about the same player? A guy that they literally trashed in the 1000s of times on this board. Not like 10 or 20 posts. I'm talking in the 1000s or tens of 1000s.

I have to say....I've never been wrong LIKE THAT before. I may have been wrong in saying this or that, here and there. But I have NEVER spammed a wrong opinion thousands and thousands of times.

No wonder all the usernames have changed.

Pascal and Kawhi guarding each other right now.

Malachi 30 minutes, 14/3/3 vs Knicks tonight. Not sure he's in the NBA after this year.

Siakam dominating as a Pacer thus far. Hali has to come back to his pre-injury form tho

Pascal 14 and Hali 13 in a loss to Bulls last night. Had to be a disappointing loss considering the playoff race they're in.

Nembhard led the team with 18. Get that young man in the Olympic team.

Demar 27 for the Bulls. He's been balling out lately. What a get he'd have been for the Knicks instead of Bogdanovich/Burks, though I don't know how available or how expensive he'd have been.

[mdenny]

I'm not completely sold on Green yet though it's certainly looking better than earlier in the season.

The one thing I think we can say for sure.....his struggles are not a work ethic/laziness problem (during games at least). Even when he has a bad night.....He's been busting his ass all year.

Night Bus Banton is heating up out in Portland. Last 2 games:

31/5/9/2 on 13/23 shooting
28/11/5/1/2 on 11/21 shooting (5/11 from 3)

43/37/84 shooting splits in 18 games in March

[-Blitz-]

Precious with the horrible turnover at the end of the game lmao classic

Fred is 14th in salary, 18th in EPM EW, and 20th in LEBRON WAR. Somehow, amazingly, he's fairly paid on that crazy max contract.

Yep, not good enough for raptors when Masai golden boy Flynn needs all the chances possible... another big Miss by our GM..

Can we cut Trent and Brown and sign Banton offseason as our backup pg/sg?

Good for him

Harris got shafted by Raps management.

Harris got shafted by Raps management.

Raps management really shafted a late 2nd rounder who got a season long suspension for drugs.

Is that a question? Maybe you don't believe in 2nd chances, but others do.

2nd chances are great.

Claiming a FO “shafted” a player because of it is idiotic.

He served the suspension, didn't get the opportunity again. Many would call that something similar. You disagree but feel the need to insult.

So he didn't get the opportunity again, from 29 other teams, but the the Raptors "shafted him".

Stop trolling.

I don't think he was treated fairly. Regardless, I wouldn't expect any other ream to give the 59th pick a chance especially with a suspension. His best and only realistic chance was with Raps. Any NBA chance is already probably over. Unfortunate.

Wait, Flynn is a golden boy but Banton (a fellow Masai draft pick in the same draft) was not?

Flynn and Banton are both 3rd string PG material, not sure what the big miss is here. Flynn also won ROTM when he was allowed to chuck for us back when we were tanking in Tampa

Obviously Masai is held to a higher standard.

Can we also just for a moment look at how bad our luck has been with fringe prospects lately?

Porter is a degenerate gambler
Koloko had a crazy health issue
Harris was doing some sort of **** with drugs/PEDs/whatever

All 3 were dudes who I personally think would have developed into bench pieces and all 3 are looking like they may never play another NBA minute, although Harris might get a chance next year. I cant believe he actually is not on a 2-way somewhere
