They have draft picks which seems to be all some people care about.


Well, it's better than what they had not too long ago. Impressive come backs afterwards the blunders.

Yes but they also got their own picks back. That's a huge improvement to what it could have been.

edit: but nonetheless I hope they totally bungle up when it comes to pick #8. No hard feelings Nets.

I know, it’s just hilarious that they went from having the bleakest future to relatively in the same position as us, if not better.


They’re not in a better position than us. Lol

They have no good young players. Just a bunch of C level prospects. They have no All-Stars. “Better” my ass.


We’re basicaly tax luxury team with no real all stars. :lol:

Not even a guarantee to make the playoffs next year or the following.

That’s the joy of someone who can be critical of the Raptors.

I can critique them and still watch them. I don’t feel beholden to act like they’ve done nothing wrong over the last several years.

But your critique should at least make some sense. This team is playoff bound, the nets arent. These teams are not on the same level.

I feel all the smoke about IQ is with Sacramento. Monk and Murray gets it done but Kings don't want to trade Murray. Kings are likely offering Monk and JV.

Why would the Raptors do either of those? Murray fell way off.

I think a change of scenery would do Murray very good.

None of these proposals make sense to me. They all feel like trades for the sake of making a trade.

I want to see this team play at least part of a season together while trying to win before we start shipping out draft picks and our young depth for 30 year olds.

Too much smoke about RJ and/or IQ moving for there to not be some truth to it. I do think 1 of them is gone soon.
