Don’t let FVV “son” him if we get the opportunity to draft him.

Horrific. Why we're so allergic to competent guards is mind-boggling.


Overthinking it.

I will find a way to get season tickets if we trade Pascal for Scoot. I want a exciting star on the Raptors again

Masai said he will look at fit at end of the year. Scottie, OG, Poeltl are the only guys we can say for sure that are coming back. I hope we are really aggressive finding out what we can get for siakam.

Il take him on his word it was a due diligence exercise and they will execute in off season.

We'll see. Haven't even heard of them working out any legitimate prospects

If we were to move on from Pascal, Fred and potentially OG, I wonder if Dallas would think about Poeltl for #10

I dunno if I want to move Poeltl, the Raps were so much better on the defense after we traded for him...who did you have in mind? Or just a complete rebuild?

edit: That's a really intriguing idea btw

Eason, #4 and #20. Is that too little for Siakam? Is it too much for OG? Eason was the #17 pick last year. I think that is a pretty good return for Siakam, and a fantastic return for OG. I mean, if we were looking at three late firsts for OG as offers from a couple teams at the trade deadline, then getting #4 and two picks around the #20 level is a better deal. Plus both are expiring and this deal would create some salary relief for the team.

Unless there already is a secret handshake deal between Harden and Houston's management, then maybe adding Siakam or OG at the draft, might give Harden a little more incentive to do a deal when free agency opens.

It really depends on who would be available, but in my perfect scenario it’s probably Derek Lively, or someone who drops. Right now 10 on Tankathon is Gradey Dick who I’d also love to select, and the guys from 7-9 are Jarace Walker, Taylor Hendricks, and Anthony Black. I’m a fan of all of those guys and would be ecstatic to get them at 10. Of course we wouldn’t know if any of them become better than Jak but if you deal him to Dallas you give him a chance to win so it seems like a good deal from both sides in my opinion. The main issue I’d have is the contract we’d have to take back because Dallas has some nasty ones on board.

Poeltl for 10 is just undoable. Draft is before FA

Who are you guys ideally targeting? I thought Kuminga would be someone of interest from around the league? Kerr's reluctancy to play young players is evident, and is not sitting well with the young ballers.
