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?


You walk right into that locker room and say "Pascal, we're trading you."

You just know the Raptors are more likely to lose the next two games, maybe more.

Watching bunch of different games tonight, one common theme is that many teams have several good and young options on their bench. Raps? Not much there.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

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

LeBron sweeping us in ECF

Kobe 81 game


I would put it somewhere behind the Diar DeRozan scream game.

People remember a team losing 25+ straight games, not the game where they ultimately win one.

It’s been a while (years) since a raptors game has really intrigued me but Saturday is going to be awesome.

Part of me is conflicted here. I will be embarrassed as a raps fan if we lose and saying “why is it always us on the bad side of history”. But then I’ll also happy because MasaBobby are truly hot garbage now and deserve the L.

So… f*ck it, I’m rooting for the Pistons, baby!

It was. Even though he's playing on an injured ankle, he should recognize how that's affecting his outside shot. There's a decent chance he doesn't play tonight.

Cade has been turning it around recently and has looked good, so a loss would not shock me.

No need to play Tatum and Brown tonight. Hell they may as well rest Porzingis as well. I hope for a loss to that kind of Celtics team and then a loss to the Pistons because I want to see Raptors Twitter and RealGM lose their ****.

Horford will be out tonight for sure. He always rests on back to backs.

There is a very good chance they rest Tatum, Brown and Horford tonight. I still don't like our chances. Hauser and Pritchard will probably combine for something like 12-15 from 3.

At this point, a shock to the system is sorely needed.
