That 6th pick is about to be San Antonio's in 20 days. That would be the cherry on top to this season.
Why must you say this? That would be so depressing.
He's just preparing you for the inevitable.

On the plus side, we save some money for probably the same tier talent between 16-19.

Okay, then you can isolate any part of any trade and highlight.
We spent a 2nd rounder on Marc Gasol and he helped us win the title. Period. What an amazing value deal, totally a legit argument to make.
But that is not at all what I am saying.
I said the trade cost us a FRP. But more appropriately, Dragic cost us a FRP. It is extremely common place for people to say X cost Y, when you need to attach a positive asset to a negative one to move it.
This isn't new, stop pretending like it is, it is an extremely common way to talk about trades and their acquisition cost.
No matter how you slice it, the trade resulted in us sending out, or,
costing us a FRP.
Out of curiosity, would trading the 30th pick for the 31st pick and cash be best summarized as 'costing a 1st round pick'?
I logged in to AND1 this.

The best luck of all is the luck you make for yourself.
TLDR; don't put yourself in stupid **** situations where you have to hope and pray a ball bounces your way, or a coin lands the right way up, just for things not to be a disaster.

16 to 19 isn’t a disaster.
Raptors can’t foresee a 4 way tie for the pick they acquired
Stop with the trolling. This was bad luck.

Don't even care. Sarr wouldn't even be a top 5 in next year's draft. Retaining our 2025 pick is ideal. But I wouldn't be upset if we end up jumping into the top 4 this year.
It's so obvious that the league rigged this - they even switched from coins to ping pong balls - so that the Raptors would lose here, but win at the lottery night.
Or convey, if that's what Masai wants. It's starting to be what I would prefer. I'm really not high on the top 10 in this draft. It reminds me of 2011 - Kyrie and a whole bunch of nothing in the top 10, then Klay, Kawhi and Jimmy thereafter.

That's the preferred outcome tbh.
The more Raptors like outcome is we keep our pick and have to give up 7th next year.

I think he's trying to say don't trade Siakam for any picks and doing so is a stupid situation. Otherwise, it would be just stupid and make little sense.

Pick is top 6 protected? Would it not be 7th or worse to SA?

Draft a player with the 19th pick.

I was referring to the entirety of this season my guy. For instance, we are currently hoping and praying that we dont lose our 6th pick, cause then this season will be objectively pretty disastrous.
Pro-tip, ask for clarification instead of being accusatory.

I'm pretty confident next year is another tanking year. Probably the next too.

Typical Raptors luck…we’re definitely conveying our pick that will be a substantially better player than we draft the following year. As then we’ll end up in the Play In next year where surely there will be a wide spread belief that there’s a huge talent drop off just a spot or two ahead of us lol
