And yet I was fully on board with the stealth tank in Tampa and would support another stealth tank this year if the team continues to struggle. What I was against was stripping the team of its assets which turned out to be the right thing as Pascal has emerged as an ALL-NBA player and OG has become an elite 3+D player.


You do know what the word stealth means right. lol there is no such thing as a stealth tank, Everyone and their mom knew the Raptors were tanking in 2020. This current team just stinks, there is nothing stealthy about it.

Benching your players is not stealth
Trading FVV/GJT would not be stealth

I thought tanking doesn't work?


What are you even talking about? Seriously, your rants are becoming more and more incoherent. Did you even read my post? :lol:

The team as a whole.


So the Raptors are the architect of an organization that staked its entire power base on something that is fatally flawed? Hmmm.
