Dalano Banton Discussion / Appreciation

[ruckus]

Love Banton, just worry he might get too overhyped and then get sh*t on by fans when he eventually slumps.

Nothing to worry about - it is guaranteed to happen.

Remember when 99% of this board believed we signed an all-star potential guard (undrafted) in Terence Davis back in 2019 - he currently has -3.4 PER.

Then Flynn was the next FVV after summer league 2020?

I paid a pretty penny for a rookie Terence Davis NBA Topshot moment. I just want him to play well enough to recoup my investment. So disappointing after a promising start.

Is that a digitized rookie card? or just a highlight video?

A combination of both. NFTs and crypto are a polarizing subject so I'll leave it at that. If there's any interest, Series 3 just started so it could be a nice time to jump in.

I know that the Raptors want anyone to bring the ball up the court, but personally if Dalano is on the court, I want them to get him the ball as soon as possible. That lineup of Precious, Boucher, Svi, Banton (I forget the other questionable decision maker on the floor) where Banton didn’t touch the Ball for multiple horrible trips was such a waste.
Also stop splitting his backup minutes with Flynn and then playing a horrible Flynn, Fred combo. If you are giving the job to Flynn which I disagree with then send Dalano to the g-league. None of this splitting the job stuff.

Interesting they sent him for a game so early. I think org had plan for him to play majority of games there but Nurse loves him and wants him in raps rotation. Good for delano will onlu get better with minutes

Banton hasn’t played PG all year and Flynn isn’t in the rotation. They can co-exist regardless.

Great move though. Banton needs to learn the Point Guard position. He needs to learn how to run a team. I am not seeing a point guard out there so far.

I don't see any down side to this. The Raptors will have him/them do double duty where possible. Play heavy minutes in the Gleague and then be a backup for the NBA team.

If he's not going to play, they should do the same thing with Flynn tbh.

It's exactly the benefit of having 905 nearby, players know it's not a demotion and their home base doesn't even change.

Not that I think they're super worried, but I think with the way that Banton has been favored over Flynn so far and yet is still going down to the 905 anyways? That makes it easier for Flynn to buy into going down to the 905 also, since he seems to have a bit of a chip on his shoulder about PT.

Yep same here. I got 3 packs from the last drop and didn’t get a rookie, I’m due. I did pay a million dollars for a Mobley though.

[JonasVFTW]

With such high mint counts for series 3, rookies are probably the only value. The prices have stabilized, so even getting into some series 1 might be a better use of investment dollars.

Also, NFL version is imminent, so getting in now may be smart as there may be a whole new customer base coming in soon.

It's a good move. He has been a nice surprise but he needs to learn to play PG.

Nurse has to trust Flynn more.

Pretty sure he said Banton x'd off and took away corner 3. X off must be a term for a particular switch or rotation
