I feel like it goes longer than that. I swear Thad Young was supposed to be Bosh’s sidekick all those years

Nah, that was Tyson Chandler.

Ho Man. Tyson Chandler for Jose Calderon memories.

I haven't seen OKC make any moves yet to get to the salary cap floor.

fisher on his live show just said they are pulling a "toronto raptors", tank for 1 season. retool around dame.
he said "toronto raptors" we are trend setters lol

they have 21 million TPE from all the trades, can fit in grant.

We're definitely trend setters, been saying it for time.

Thomas bryant? Any reason why his numbers are down or do they believe in Gafford more over there?

Bless Masai and Nurse. Nurse especially. Dude's defensive schemes get borrowed league wide. Your coach's favorite coach.

They have Harrell too. I'd take any one of them

Portland is collecting first round picks and young assets to send to Detroit.

He can't be traded this season.

The Toronto Tank (when teams strategically tank for 1 year)

TTT for short.

Although the Spurs were the OGs of this. Landed them Duncan.

Life of a raptor fan .. we went from talking about getting Turner / Nurkic / or Bogdan to getting Thomas Bryant / Gafford or Gallo

I'm coming around to Eric Gordon too. Definitely more older than I would like (hoping for someone who can grow with this core)....but Eric Gordon would be really good Vet add for a team that's literally the youngest in the league without Dragic.

I wonder if we can grab Jaeshaun Tate as well. He's a gritty back-up guard that plays extremely hard

We didn't trade all our good players for nothing so its nothing like what we did. This is like us keeping Lowry and trading Siakam/Fred/OG for almost nothing and then calling it a "retool."

By the time the new young pieces even become relevant, Lillard will be washed up lol.

His defense is awful.

One lowkey target I would really like...Kenrich Williams from OKC. Don't need dragic to get him. His salary is small enough.

He'd be a great depth Pickup. Seems like a Raptor sort of player

NotMyKawhi · Post #1359 » by **NotMyKawhi** » Tue Feb 8, 2022 10:17 pm

I'm hearing we take Gallo if they give us hurter for Dragic.
Holmes
Beasley
Poeltl

What are the wizards gonna do? 2 days ago they were trying to go all in on Sabonis to pair up with Beal and make a run at the east this season.

Now, Sabonis is gone to the Kings and Beal is having season-ending surgery
