So we not trading Boucher i guess.
So much for restocking on picks

We can trade Boucher for a future pick or a 2nd?

We can but the wording on the tweet makes it sound like we want to keep him and let his contract expire to free up space putting us under the tax

Would we still be under the tax if we get a 2nd round pick for next year?

[WuTang_CMB]

Siakam return a lot better
gotta do this deal ... didnt like giving up indy first but oh well
now sit him

reload next year with a top 8 pick , ingram , scottie leading , and all young guys improved

[UnbelievablyRAW]

The only major questions are what year is this second rounder from and what contract extension talks have we had with Ingram. If we're giving up 2 picks for him we're not willing to have him walk so I hope his reps don't have us over a barrel and force a 40+ million dollar contract.

Scottie is only about to make 39 and he's supposed to be our franchise

[Randle McMurphy]

We should be dumping RJ Barrett now as soon as we can. Ingram is a much better version of him at least.

If you can afford them then keep both. RJ pressures the rim and Ingram can work from the perimeter. And now we have extra length on D.

RJ doesn't play defense. Neither does Ingram for that matter, but at least he gives you the offense.

RJ gotta go.

[Raps in 4]

Pointless trade. We didn't give up much, but it does nothing for the team's short or long-term outlook.

Boucher and Davion are pretty much gone for sure in trade now actually. We will get picks back if we take back more money for crappy players on expirings.

Relax people..

Ingram is a scorer..a pure bucket getter...finally some offense on this Raps squad.

You don't get rid of Barrett who is not 25 yet...a young wing who tries to play defence but gets you 20 points a night...he is worth something.

If the Hawks strike out.. we should think of moving on from IQ for Trae Young in the off season...

Clippers and the Suns will break their teams soon... Sun's are already cooked without a decent center.

Bucks might be in trouble as well...

So we have..

IQ
Barrett
Ingram
Barnes
Poetel

Dick
Walter
Shead
Mitchell
Boucher

Will Boucher get traded tomorrow??

We will draft another player next season who will come off the bench.. I think this is why Masai brought in Ingram.. we have our starters..the bench doesn't look that bad..but needs a consistent scorer.

Scoring wise the team has too many mouths to feed.

I'm not happy with the way the roster is currently constructed.

Atleast tanking gives you a path to finding the next best thing like we did with Scottie.

All this does is put us back to the middle of the pack.

[ishoy123]

Raptors are gonna be super deep:
Starting 5: Poeltl, Barnes, Ingram, Barrett, Quickley
Bench: Dick, Shead, Mogbo, Walter, Agbaji, 25 picks

Before considering what we do with Mitchell

[dTox]

I have a feeling it's the same group that cheered when we traded away a lottery pick for Poetl, that are happy with this trade.

[Jadoogar]

Might as well have kept og and siakam. Team is back to the same point

A 1st round pick for the right to pay a dude who's always injured 35-40 million dollars


And you guys are delusional if you think this team plans to rest him this season to preserve the tank. If he's healthy he's going to play, and if he's not, that doesn't bode well either because we're about to pay him handsomely to warm the bench for many years going forward.

[DreamTeam09]

Wait so we can potentially be under the tax next year with a starting 5 of

IQ
RJ
BI
Barnes
Jakob

With a bench of Walter/Dick/Ochai/Shead/.

Let's get it - We UP

2026 indy pick, i wonder if there is additional protections

I would want top 4 protection if so would send our 1st pick.

PG IQ - Shead - Walter
SG Barrett - Dick - Walter
SF Ingram - Ochai - Dick
PF Scottie - 1st pick - Mogbo
C Poeltl - ? - Chomche

I see an RJ trade next year as the other shoe dropping here. Likely see if Walter’s has the stuff to start at shooting guard at least he can play defense.

[Jadoogar]

Edit: Idk I'm waffling. I just don't see how he's a ceiling raiser. His numbers are worse than DeMars when he was here and he has health issues.

This is asset management. You turn worthless expirings into a productive player. Key is to sign him to a tradeable contract for the future.

How is ingram better than siakam?

Had a feeling it was done because RGM wouldn’t load again.

Happy with the move. I think he will have his best years here.

He's as injury prone as OG,
