After a 2nd straight 1st rd exit (with homecourt advantage) the raptors are going down a path we nugg fans should be familiar with.

That said, I think it'll be interesting to observe how our old gm masai handles the roster situation. It was known early on that masai isn't a fan of his current roster and wanted to blow it up sooner rather than later and with the way the wizards is just outclassing the raps, you have to think masai is going to make his move.

I tie the nuggs into this because when masai was our gm, he made a big decision in trading melo. That trade and a couple of signings are what gave masai his reputation as a good gm. Now being 2-3 years removed from Denver, tim conolly and the denver front office are still hanging onto/salvaging the roster/core which masai mostly put together.

I would find it laughable if masai leaves his imprint in toronto before tim conolly even attempts to make a splash in Denver

IMO, Ujri made his reputation off the Knicks with the Melo trade and the Barg's trade. His drafts were not bad but not great either.
