Some of you guys need to relax until the end of the off-season.

We got great upside with McKinnie, Miller, Lorenzo Brown and Malachi Richardson

The key will be to re-sign Lucas Nogueira

That seems to be Massai's plan at least. :lol:

Is Sim Bhullar the Punjab Wilt Chamberlin a free agent?

Alfonzo McKinnie is the next Trevor Ariza.

Without a meniscus.

Of course, Robert Webster is the one commenting, and not Masai. But, he seems pretty miffed or unsure as to what's going on in terms of the lack of player movement tonight, hinting that teams were just hesitant in making things happen.

Are we allowed to freak out than. Or do we have to wait until after training camp for Nick Nurse to coach them up a little bit and see what we have. I can't wait!

I just don’t think anyone important was being moved. He was keeping it gentle to make it seem like we were interested in moving pieces. Powell didn’t generate any interest unless we added picks. Even we can see that.

Just wait Jonn 1989, we will sign an undrafted FA and the Raptors fan-base will rejoice as there will be the tiny chance that we find another Fred VanVleet, who is a back-up PG

Such a weird draft. Only pick for pick trades and no NBA veterans traded. No one bought a pick either.

Rawle Alkins didn't get drafted and I am a fan of his. Toronto worked him out last year so I am hoping something gets done.

Webster pumped for free agency but has no money to spend

lol

I mean, if this same team is back next season, you have the right to complain but until then you don't even know how things will unfold with the roster. A bunch of irrational cry babies in here today.

It’s a sign that 1. You can’t beat GS so just trust the process and rebuild. 2. Look at Bos and Phi, there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

We’re stuck with our guys unless we add picks. All contracts are viewed as salary dumps. Especially ours.

Too bad Dallas took Kostas with the last pick. Bet Masai had that one lined up if he wasn't drafted.

There may be some hope. The guy I pegged as a second rounder may have fallen to us. He has a Tyreke Evan's kind of game.

When teams strike out in FA I hope they call the raps for Ibaka

Dallas leap frogged for Doncic. Memphis who wanted to get back into contention, drafted & kept the youngest big in the draft :banghead:

. At this point, I hope Raptors offered nothing.

Suns traded the 16th & a future 1st (top 5 protected) for the 10th pick.

Sixers now have 2 future 1st's (19/21) that aren't their own to offer in trade for Leonard.

Raptors, no pick because Masai signed & had to move Carrol. On the bright side, there was no pick to potentially package with Ibaka's signing.

Dallas got a future first rounder as well. LOL ATL what the hell are you doing.
