I don't see anything happening with RJ or IQ today, Bobby and Masai will probably want to see what a healthy roster looks like before they pull the trigger.

Forget the players, when do we upgrade the coach ?

I wouldn't call Masai or Darko an idiot, that's a bit harsh.

But we definitely need an upgrade.

Looks like MLSE is not ok with them missing the playoffs given the supposed talent available.

Dude, today’s about the players. And the FO. Worry about the coach another day.

For someone who brainwashes, sorry to break it to ya, but this is too easily laughed off.

When will the raptors wake up and realize the problem lies within Scottie being our best player, not our role players.

We do this every year, all that smoke rumors come out, saying our players and pick is in play, we will make a significant draft deal, and what actually happens is we stay exactly where we are. Besides last year acquiring 2nd in the masai era have we made a draft day deal? we typically don't do anything.

You’re right…but to be fair that trade last year was epic. No one saw Jaden McDaniels returning anything…no one! :lol:

What you think Darko's a good coach? You sure you want to be calling other people idiots?

So it's that simple. Get a player better than Scottie?
