Welcome Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk!!!

As we all know, Ujiri is brilliant. And so is Svi. How far do they go now?


Muscles


Air Svi


Rim Protector

They might challenge for the play in now.

Who?

Vote "Definitely" for now and figure the rest out later

Is OKC the league farm team from now on?

I like this guy more than most. Sneaky good pickup assuming Nurse can motivate him to play even a little bit of defense.

Laugh now Bostonian Believer, but I say it is a coin toss for who has a better year - the Raps or Celtics. Raps defense is going to be epic this year. That prediction was made without clarity about if they are adding a young 7'2" center in a month - add Moses Brown to that overall team length ... and it will get even harder to score against them.

Raps will lead the league in 3pt blocked this year.

Don't get your hopes up, OKC didn't even want him back

He can motivate him all he wants it's not going to make his t-rex arms grow longer.

This guy is 6'7 with a 6'5 wingspan. That is super rare for an NBA athlete.

Maybe, he still needs a year or two more development ... so do a lot of our young guys. Thank goodness that an organizational strength.

He had 9 and 9 and a block in just over 20 minutes last year. He didn't get shorter did he? A guy like that is great in the right situations.

Think Brown/Siakam/Anunoby/Barnes/VanVleet or even Brown/Boucher(or Achuiwa)/Siakam/Anunoby/Barnes

If Raptors have a better year than Boston this year minus any significant injuries to top players on both teams (Tatum/Brown and Siakam/FVV), I will never post here ever again.

Sig it, bookmark it, do as you please.

Where is the "I have zero doubts - NO" poll option?

And back to what?

Svi is terrible at literally everything a basketball player is supposed to do, which is why he's on his 4th team in three years.

Svi lights it up in practice, but ends up disappointing in game

Oh, he has both a better feel for the game and more athleticism than people give him credit for. He absolutely finishes over the rim and is fully capable of making slick passes off the dribble:

Ok..I'm a Raptor fan.. and I gotta add my two cents..have u seen highlights of Moses Brown.. he is a project...tall.. lanky..yes ..but is raw.. not a game changer .. won't even get minutes behind Precious who will be coming off the bench...

All this chatter that Goran is traded to the Mavs .. I'll believe it when I see it happen..Raps ain't trading with the Mavs I'd they don't give them what they want.. which is relief from going over the tax.. I say trade Goran to a team that will pay him next season...and we get what we want... Why do we need to help the Mavs .. we owe Goran nothing... But knowing Masai..he will help Goran get to the Mavs..and they will have to pony up whatever Raps management wants in return...

Lol..good call..Celtics with Tatum and Brown... Plus their center coming back and Marcus Smart..they are a 48-50 win team... And will be better than the Raps...Raps can win around 41 games... But that's only if they can score... Defence will help keep the. In games ...but a lot will depend on Gary Trent.. Freddy and OG at the start of the season...and then Pascal coming back from I jury in month two and getting o to game shape..will and can possibly have them hover at the .500 mark.

"With Tatum and brown"....means what exactly?

And Kemba/Fournier/Theis/Thompson into Schroder/Richardson/Horford/Kanter? Probably a downgrade tbh.

I hear that Mykhailiuk has a nickname ... The Ukranian Lebron.
