Fred is the guy.


If you’re going for KD, you’re keeping FVV.


Let's wait for the off-season only for Marks to string us along and then deal him to PHX

Great roster building.

after PHO trades Ayton to Dallas, they won't have the assets for KD.

they won't trade bridges or booker and the nets won't want CP3.

I’ve been saying the FO has fell off for a reason.

We’ll see if they prove me wrong.

They traded Harden to the Sixers lol divisions in the NBA don't matter a whole lot besides if KD is gone they're not competing anyways so who cares?

Not too many front offices better than the raptors. They are not the best but they still stack up very well relatively

We could just pivot and trade Pascal/OG in the offseason if we strike out on KD. I doubt Pascal would even get moved till the offseason anyways

From being the most blueprint oriented organization to punting major decisions with the hope that KD asks out AND Marks deciding to deal him to a division rival seems very off.

They are shackled by the 250 ++ millions in losses incurred in Tampa and the season after with no fans for a while.

We are going to sit on our all-stars and sell jerseys

I dont think Pascal or OG are gone by the deadline and they very well could be on the team next season.

But I have a hard time believing we are keeping Fred just to hope KD asks for a trade and we somehow pull off a deal for him.

Too far fetched

Wouldn't surprise me at all if Masai decides to trade our top 6 draft pick in a package for KD (unless we're drafting top 2).
In Masai We Trust :meditate:

Another caveat:

If you S and T for Player X (Fred), you are hard capped

im with you there.

If I am the raps I capitalize on OG’s value now and not wait until the off-season.

Let’s stand pat and wait till the off-season to offer everyone who’s name is not FVV and draft assets for KD!

100% KD is not available. It's a waste of breath even discussing it.

makes more sense if we dont want to pay fred what he wants in fa.
i dont know how much i like siakam/og/barnes moving forward if they cant improve their 3 point shooting.
but if you could combine fred with og for durant......

I admit maybe I'm misinterpreting it but you wouldn't think the Raps would allow things to reach a point where WOJ is talking about a deal around a particular player publicly. That to me is a LOUD thing to do and it's not at all like Woj to gamble his creditibility for anything unfounded.

It's hard to think that it would sit well with Fred come negotiation time that both: we let the details of his contract extension that he turned down leak and now Woj making it public record that he's available. It's one thing when Jake Fisher says it, it's whole other thing entirely when Woj does. I just refuse to let myself get too excited about it lol but there does seem to be some smoke....hopefully no mirrors lol
