A loss to the Pistons might be the only outcome to force Masai to make a trade. I don't see anything else getting him to budge.

Nothing will force Masai to make a trade.

A loss to the Pistons should be paraded as Masai's 81 and force MLSE to fire him

How do you tell a champion we are going to make trades?

I think he'll do something. I'm just afraid "something" will be trading another FRP for a random role player.

Biggest games in Raptors history: Game 7 against Philly, Game 3 against the Bucks, and Game 6 against the Warriors in 2019...and now Raps vs Pistons on Dec 30th.

A loss will be ranked among these all time embarrassing Raptors memories:

LeBron sweeping us in ECF

Kobe 81 game

Not gonna lie the pistons are must watch tv. Never in my life did I think I’d be so invested in a pistons Celtics regular season game on a Thursday let alone during the holidays. Amazing if we lose lol

ESPN has started sending alerts for each Pistons loss since the 26th consecutive one. I can see Saturday's push notification now: "Pistons end skid with romp over Raptors"

The Pistons game is going to be a hell of a game. Neither team is going to want to lose it. Pistons rested at home though, while we are on the 3rd in 4 - knowing this team, the Pistons are going to end the streak

We need more posts to hype Dec 30 loss at the same tier as Kobe's 81 game

Scottie vs. Cade Saturday will be epic.

Prediction: Celtics rest Porzingis, Tatum and Brown against the Raptors. Dalano Banton goes off for a double-double and leads the Celtics in scoring in a blowout win against his old team.

If that were to happen, AND we lose to the Pistons, then I truly think that will......still not prompt anything.

GSW needs to blow it up.

The line will probably be pretty close against Detroit, they're obviously highly motivated to not own the record by themselves. We will be on a B2B with travel and an earlier than typical start time. Detroit will probably be feeling good about how they played against the Celtics and bring that confidence in against us knowing it's a winnable game too.
