Would you believe Scoot is best 3 point shooter on POR by %

Lol

*****edit*****

Was. Up until a few games ago.

Clingan plus assets is the only reason the Raptors would ever consider trading the 3rd overall pick of the 2025 draft. Don't be daft it's unbecoming.

Trading the 3rd overall pick for Clingan???? Unless those "plus assets" equates to Sharpe and Scoot, I'M GOOOOOOOOOD!

Clingan and 10th for #3 OA I think sounds appealing. yes

No it does not at all.

Harper/Bailey/Edgecombe for Clingan + Fears/Queen/CMB ??

I’m good.

Flagg just had a brutal ankle injury…. Not sure we see him again this season.

The only trade I continue to think about is just how the hell can we get Leonard Miller?! lol

As an aside, JRoy showing up on the Raptors board to shut down any trades to POR have become a tradition.

I came for the trade shut downs. I come back for the hospitality.

Toronto goes to Bourbon street again.

Assuming our young players continue to play out of their minds and we make the play in:

To New Orleans - Quickley, Dick, 2025 pick

To Toronto - Zion

Classic buy low move.
Zion rejoins college teammate Barrett

Rafters · Post #812 » by **Rafters** » Sun Mar 16, 2025 3:51 am

Well I guess the buffets in Toronto are less appealing then the ones in New Orleans… maybe that helps Zion stay on the court.

A Jak/Zion/Scottie front court would be comical from a spacing stand point.

If we ever did take a gamble on Zion, Scottie would almost certainly be going the other way imo.

Harris + Ivey + 2 1st = RJ + Gradey

Poeltl / Maluach
Barnes / Harris
Ingram / Mogbo
Ivey / Agbaji / Walter
Quickley / Shead

Had a dream we won the draft lottery and took Flagg....then Condon with Port 2nd. Traded Gradey for Lively.

And Darko decided to run 2 "lines" and just ourpace other teams and smothered them with pressure defense. We ran with:

IQ, Ochai, BI, Barnes, Yak
Shead, Walter, RJ, Flagg, Lively
Lawson, Rhoden, Battle, Mogbo, Condon didn't play

Shead, Walter, RJ, Flagg, and Lively off the bench would be fire. I don't think we can get Lively for GD though.

I'm with you that Lively for GD may not happen, but we also expected DAL to ask more for Luka, so there's a chance

While I agree...there were Mavs fans that were fine with it a few weeks ago because they still have Gafford and AD to play C and Gradey gives them a young potential shooter who can learn from and someday hopefully replace Klay.

There's a ton of talent in that 2nd tier range that might drop. Richardson, Bryant, Fleming, Newell, Fears, Queen, and CMB.

Agbaji + 40 for 15-18th (Fleming).

I guess Maluach is already a given.

Poeltl / Maluach
Barnes / Fleming
Ingram / Mogbo / Battle
Barrett / Walter / Dick
IQ / Shead

Best bench defense in the league, high shooting potential, and likely immediately impactful. Everyone is screaming for stretch bigs well here you go.

That's true. Maybe Nico will take a S&t Garrett Temple for Lively lol.
