why, were the raptors unwilling to take on 4 future picks in the deal?

The offer was Bogs, Terry, Teletovic and Plumlee or 2020 1st.

Brooklyn Nets have interest in Kyle Lowry, but have "zero intention" of trading Bojan Bogdanovic or a future first round pick to the Toronto Raptors in any deal for him, according to a source.



Billy King is absolutely the worst GM in the history of pro basketball.


The knicks turned down a deal that was Raymond Felton, Metta World Peace and either Iman Shumpert, Tim Hardaway Jr. or a 2018 first-round pick for Kyle Lowry.

Sloan's defense is absolutely embarrassing. He must have dreams of a career in China since he refuses to do the necessary things to stick in the NBA.

he is a 3rd string player who is starting and playing big minutes... its hard for me to really get on his case. its not his fault the roster is so bad he has to start.

Strong effort by the starters tonight, and good effort to cut it 7 after it was 20 at halftime.

FTs & turnovers hurt alot.... and our bench killed us (outscored like 65-10 by their bench).

Brook played well, Joe showed up. thats not enough to get it done though

I'm still trying to figure out how Ellington is allowed to chuck to no avail.

I understand this is a lost season but at least try to play the game the right way. I'm sick of watching these garbage ass journeymen turn each possession into a "look at me!" contest.

That deal was vetoed by Dolan, not the GM. And I'm glad for it.

25th in Bench Scoring
28th in Backcourt Scoring
29th in Threes Made Per Game
27th in Three Point Percentage

I can't even be mad at this loss. This is what a modern day NBA team looks like compared to our 1935 basketball constructed team. Billy King should be arrested for what he's done to this franchise.

I would have done the deal with top 12 protections on the 2020 pick.

King should be executed for what he did to this team. Lopez/Lowry would be a SICK combo and we'd probably not be in this mess right now. Even when the idiot had a chance to set the ship straight he didn't. WOW :crazy: :crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

The fact that Lopez/Young can even produce at all when we are getting absolutely nothing from our perimeter guys says a lot.

Anthony Davis at full health couldn't produce wins for this group.

fun fact...I forgot to even watch this game. I saw Golden State vs. Washington on TV and decided to watch modern day basketball. Wall vs. Curry was incredible. Curry started that game off with a demoralizing barrage of threes, a lesser player's spirit would have been broken from being on the receiving end of that beat down but John Wall kept coming back at them, even when he was visibly frustrated in the 1st qtr...he regained his composure (after Alan Anderson got in his ear...miss that guy here) and kept competing. I earned a TON of respect for Wall after last night. He plays basketball like a man.

Brook had 18/4/2 at halftime and we were still down by 20. I keep saying it. This roster is worse than the 12-70 team.
