Without a superstar like we will never be as relevant as the Maple leafs or even Blue Jays

some people are a little too happy that Raptors aren't getting a top 5 pick....kinda weird. I like watching the Raptors win and seeing guys like Boucher have great games but I also can't help but to think of the long-term consequences.

Team mediocrity is relishing in a win vs a beat up team, don't worry comrades we face some real teams who aren't trash the next 5 games. Let's see what happens.

Even though the Mavs lost half their team to covid protocol and I predicted a Raptors win. I can't lie and say I'm not disappointed. It could have been a statement loss for TWO tonight.

All key players are playing relatively well again and it looks like Boucher has taken the next step....

So what does this mean? If we reach .500, are we still going to ship Kyle or will we sit tight? Are there any long term benefits of holding on to Lowry?

I was kind of hoping the front office would have pulled the trigger earlier on a Lowry trade. With the team in Tampa, this seasons feels like a throwaway season regardless of whether they are winning or losing.

It's ok lads, as long as we're in good position we're gonna get one of those top 3 picks. Silver promised to pay us back for being good soldiers. :wink:

I'll never fully give up on this tank my brothers.

Imagine gloating about the Raptors losing a play in game and getting the 15th pick rather than a shot at Cade. These are the supposed "real fans."

If the team is 500 or close to it, raps won't trade Lowry

In that situation, it be hard to sell MLSE on a fire sale.

We need to trade Lowry, Powell and Boucher before the deadline.

We might get an even better return on Boucher than Lowry because his team option for next year is so cheap.

They know the team is mediocre so they're just rooting for wins so tank nation can fail.

I wonder if we offered Boucher straight up to the Warriors for their Timberwolves pick would they consider it?

KL78192020 · Post #999 » by **KL78192020** » Tue Jan 19, 2021 4:09 am

it is what it is...thought this team was a 7-8 seed before the season started, looked like they were going to be much worse after those first 10 games lol. Oh well I guess the "winning culture" guys get their way.
