But re-entry via flight comes with a 14-day self-quarantine requirement right? It's the reason my parents put off a trip from Portugal indefinitely.

Doesn't social media include twitter? Where his profile pic is him in a raptors uniform, holding the Larry OB, background pic is the team picture with Larry OB, and just six days ago, he posted Happy Thanksgiving for Canadian Thanksgiving? If he is trying to remove the Raptors from Social Media, he has a long way to go.

Regardless of the reality with his social media, Surge was likely to leave.

The level he's played at the last 2 years, he can get himself a nice 3-year $40M+ type deal, which wouldn't make sense for the Raptors. Ignoring cap space, he would be a great piece for teams like Boston, GS, LAC and a bunch of others

The Raptors could offer him $30M just for this year to preserve cap space. If that happens that $40M over three years doesn't really look that enticing. The ball is in the Raptors court if they want to retain him which i think they must because he brings so many important elements to the team including being a great locker room influence.

On top of that, keeping our fellow Africans will go a long way towards making Giannis feel super comfortable signing here.

If this is the process that leads to Beal coming home then..

the #WeTheNorth at the end confirms he wants to stay and most likely will be back on a 1yr deal.

I think Houston is a good destination for him. He gets reunited with Harden and Westbrook...and their offense at least under D'Antoni would have made him a perfect fit...however the fit now will depend on who the next coach is.

Houston would be a perfect fit, but do they have the money?

If they want to part with Covington and Tucker, sure I'd S&T Ibaka. He can play with former Thunder Westbrook and Harden.

Serge completely blew up his twitter account with that tweet. It's obvious our fan base loves the guy.

What other Raptor frequents the Paris Fashion show? He must stay.

Thought he should have played more in the boston series. Big fan!

Come on people there is a cap hold that would affect our ability to sign giannis. If you give Serge 30 Mil then his cap hold would be similar to Lowry’s of 42 Mil. So basically you beed to renounce Lowry and Ibaka to sogn Giannis and you can only sign Ibaka and Lowry to small deals then. So which player in their right mind would take a big one year deal from a team knowing they wont keep him after that. Serge is not taking a min contract in 2021 he can easily get 20 mil for 3 to 4 yrs. Thats 80 Mil, so your telling me hed give up 80 Mil to take 30 Mil. Face it, makes no sense to keep Serge if your wanting Giannis and he knows it too.

Its either Fred or Serge this summer we will have to make a decision.

the raptors have to get younger, get better in the halfcourt offence, Ibaka - loved his time as a raptor, very productive...marc Gasol & Ibaka didn't provide us anything in the playoffs, heck our frontcourt - Gasol, Ibaka, Siakim - didn't perform at all & we pushed the Celtics to 7 games...the more im analysing the concluded playoffs, the coaching staff did a great job.

Not really...NN going to the Gasol/Serge lineup in Q2 when we had a 7 point lead—>cost us G7 vs Celtics...and yea Serge should have definitely played more mins over Gasol for the whole series...
