They drafted those guys because they slid due to injury. They haven't really overcome those issues just yet. McCullar is a 2mil cap hold so. No guarantee he even comes back. Huk is a team option, might not be back either.

Adou Thiero. That's who I want. One tweet of a few clips is all I need to see. He's the guy!! OG with offense and handles and springs in his shoes.

Prepare to bid Adou adieu. Some other team will draft him


I don't care who we draft. I am literally pump and dump scamming this kid. :lol:

woah, if Masai is out, then the Raptors will probably turnover most of their roster under a new GM

Aside from getting Kawhi to the raps for a ring, masai didn’t do much in Toronto. His only other mark on his resume was fleecing the Knicks for Melo.

The NYK were an enabler for Masai's successes. Once Leon came in and the gravy train was shut off, Masai couldn't do anything. But the man delivered a title to Toronto which will probably be their only title in the next couple of decades so he'll be remembered fondly for that.

Now, back to misery for Toronto and contending for the Knicks, as it should be...

They Raptors ownership must have grown tired of his... forward thinking. Get it? Because he brought in a lot of forwards. That's the joke here.

Man, who would have thought getting Leon Rose instead of Masai was dodging a bullet but it was. He's been lousy since the championship and also since he can't screw us over in deals anymore.

Some of his best career trades was based on him getting one over on the Knicks. Though I think the OG and Siakim trades did him in more than anything else. Neither of those look like the raptors came out better than the other team…. And the Knicks offered him draft picks instead of both IQ and RJ and he chose both IQ and RJ.

His last chance was probably to get one of KD and Giannis and it didn’t work out. So he did the final draft with them and now he is gone. Other teams will give him a hard look, though in hindsight he should have taken that Wizard’s offer of partial ownership to lead that team a few years ago.

Don't forget that he also got a 1st round pick for Andrea Bargnani from the Knicks.

James Dolan single-handedly built the legend of Masai Ujiri.

If Leon wasn’t here the Knicks would have probably sent the raptors picks along with RJ and IQ for OG. That’s how much he use to dunk on Dolan.

Ok mdb, you were right and I was wrong. He definitely needs a new agent unless he plans on doing nefarious dealings then he has the right man

I hope Danny Ainge suffers the same fate. He's another GM who tries to get too cute for his on good.

that's wild. championship team: og, siakam, norman powell, fred vanvleet (UDFA) all out of the draft process. personally challenged lowry to be an all-nba player from journeyman. fleeced orlando for serge. built that group into a contender. then gets marc gasol to play point center the same year as the kawhi for derozan deal.

nah, man put in work. maybe it was time. but he was big in his role. this change is an event.
RIP magnumt

thanks for everything, thibs.
