Wow this sort of detonates a big option for Toronto if Dallas is serious about Ayton.

I don’t think that’s enough. That would leave Dallas with 0 depth. Never know. I don’t think this does anything. Maybe suns leaked this to her the raptors to take him for FVV and Boucher ?

Hey isn't Bobby Webster supposed to do a press today?

Even the updates are trash.

We have enough project players on our roster - our starting 5 is too talented for the Raptors to be spending time and energy rehabbing Jalen Suggs.

Ideally no, but at least we wouldn't have to watch as many blowbys at the point of attack. Suggs is a little like Scottie--comes to the party in the fourth quite strongly. He does show some leadership when it counts. He would run the floor at least.

I think everybody would love to know what Masai/Bobby's asking price for OG is.

with Kessler Edwards gone, the Nets simply don't have the assets to pull off an O.G. or Pascal trade.

Option for what? People were thinking that we were going to trade Siakam for Ayton and now this guy is saying Ayton's value is an expiring and a 30 year old one dimensional shooter.

The panic is real. Our organization tends not to leak anything, so a trade (if coming) would likely come out of nowhere.

it would be nice if we find out what kind of deals we've rejected for him so far.

noone wants Ayton here apparently. our fanbase is fickle. short of a superstar talent, everyone is a scrub.

all draftpicks are all superstars.

NOOOOOOOO! Kessler was supposed to the sweetener in a Raptors/Nets trade. When he found out, Masai just screamed "**** Brooklyn!!" and slammed the phone down on Sean Marks.

Amazing to me that no matter where he goes, nobody wants Christian Wood.

Getting for Ayton for Freddy wouldn't be all bad.

DAL strength has never really been their depth and those are 2 guys they've been looking to get rid of anyway. The move would allow Green & Hardy to get more PT which is a much better option and lock in a C for Luka.

I think getting Kyrie & Ayton would be great moves overall considering how badly limited they appeared to be and it would give them a SERIOUS chance to win it all or at least make the Finals, hard to top that considering they only had to give up a handful of rotation players for a couple of all-star level talents.

If Dallas trades for Ayton and Kyrie bolts to the Lakers... :lol:

He can't guard a chair, has a checkered past and wants to get paid.
bad combo.

Apparently, the Nets are trying to force a Siakam trade.

Thank God. Sooner the better. That way Masai is not tempted.

What will happen?
