Does Karim Mane have anything close to Murray's?

Raps somehow end up with Murray and it’s very possible that this franchise is still ringless

I love our team but I pray one day we get a great canadian on our team to come play
We had Tracy Murray and Lamond Murray. Lamond sucked.

Lol at all this.
And you don't have the foggiest of clues as to how Murray played last year.
I've been following him closely since he burst onto the Canadian basketball scene at the Biosteel All-Star game. He was also outstanding at the U16s and Pan Ams. If I was in the war room with Masai I would have told him to double down on Murray and do everything in your power to secure him.
Who says he didn't?

If you did everything in your power to secure him, you would have Murray on this roster. The Raptors missed him be 2 picks, it's not like they had no picks or assets to trade.

Thank god it's not on you and you didn't and go and lose our one and only championship for us.

The only thing I remember about him is that he had to defend Shaq for a few possessions for us because all our bigs fouled out.

If I was GM we wouldn't have had to rely on a one in a million trade to be a contender for just one year. It's about building a dynasty.

Lmao. If you were the Gm this team would be a **** disaster with the employees fleeing like refugees and never even close to winning. And minus one championship. But the level of arrogance there is A+.

10 years ago, Murray's game and size would be the one of a 6th man. Combo-guards were not starters. Jamal is a pure combo-guard as much as he likes to say "I have played point most of my life".
Ben Simmons
Brandon Ingram
Jaylen Brown
Would you draft Murray ahead of any of those guys? I am not there yet , I would not!

I would not trade the years since then just to see how that would have played out anyway.
