If this is a fleece, I wish we got fleeced for Vince back in the day.

Wait...

They were getting Ayton no matter what. That was already discussed. They essentially got Jrue and one 1st rounder for Lillard. Let’s see what they get for Jrue. They also got two swap rights which is good I guess.

Honestly looks like a massive FU to the Miami Heat coming from Portland. The Heat don't get Dame *and* he goes to a true championship contender in the EC.

Looks like this followed the typical raptors realgm trajectory.

Get hyped for a potential trade for months > nothing happens > actually it was a terrible idea > ujiri is praised for not making the move.

I wouldn't rip the Blazers front office tbh they rewarded Dame by sending him to play with Giannis and the contending Bucks

WHO DOES THIS MANAGEMENT TEAM THINK O.G IS????? How come we all know he's Robert Covington, yet he has the reputation of kawhi? I don't get it. Just to top it off they're going to end up losing him for free.

Masai got his bag, he probably checks his email once a day between errands.

But there will be other stars and opportunities.


Not really. I think there is an incredible middle class in the NBA presently and teams like Indiana, Orlando, OKC, Utah and others with more substantial assets will trump Toronto. These teams have budding superstars and are just waiting to pounce in a year or two.

Not to mention Masai and Bobby just wasting other team's time. We just aren't players, and I have said it for years, the Kawhi trade was a fluke mainly based on RC Buford spiting Kawhi and sending him to the place he least wanted to go to.

Toronto needs to have Scottie really take a step this year otherwise we have to build through the draft. That is just about the only thing we do well historically.
We say that every year but the Raptors are always there with a very real chance at acquiring the player.

There were reported offers. They weren't meaningfully better than just signing Schroder.


I never heard anything... Schroder is a journeymen close to 30 who can't shoot 3's this should never have been a plan

Why you lamenting the lack of trade if you weren't even paying attention to what the offers were?

Ayton was disgruntled and was probably going to be upset that he was going to be even less of a contributor on offense. Nurkic fits better as a role player on the Suns.

Ya I don't get it. Dame gets to play with Giannis and his brother is trashing the Portland front office? Why even mention that Toronto had a better offer? Did Dame prefer Toronto over Milwaukee? This is so weird.

We’re going to overpay the hell out of him. Masai knows he can’t let another starter leave for nothing.

Masai said he intended to resign Fred all year.... This supposed Grayson Allen offer sounds like complete fabricated
Real GM BS. If this was a real offer Masai would've hung up the phone on them. Masai completely botched the Fred
situation you can't lose one of your best players for absolutely nothing it's a major knock on any GM/President in any
sport.

Return to Toronto Raptors
