What do you you mean by "the tank"? Who do you think is tanking? Who is it that is controlling said tank?

beanbag is right. What do you mean fixed? The pick is traded. WTF you gonna do at this point Jay Triano style. Wish I had that picture of the look alike on the run of him.

I feel like DelAbbot is a minster of misinformation for the tWo amongst other things, some good or bad depending on your POV.

We're still the 7th worst record in the league, despite 2 easy wins. My point is that beating 2 trash teams doesn't mean the team is ready for some run to push to 10th.

Fair enough. However look at the teams around the Raptors. The odds of keeping the pick will be a coin flip at best. And next years draft is purportedly much deeper. It's an awkward situation to be in as a team. It's unfortunate that the Hawks, Bulls and Nets have dropped the ball so badly and Memphis with the injuries. Brooklyn loses the pick no matter and they are only half a game up on us. Utah is top 10 protected too so they might start losing.

I'd love to win a lottery pick and get into the top 4 but if not it will be nice to have the pick back next year in a deeper draft.

edit: and now Trae is out for 4 weeks lol.

The right move last season and this was to tank. Our FO is stubborn.

This team is deep now. Believe in your city. The East is so bad, a play-in spot is still possible somehow.

Masai put this team in such a bad spot with that Jak trade. Such light protection was beyond dumb. He better hit on that Pacers pick at least to make up for what we’re about to lose in conveying a Top 10 pick

Yeah that's fair, I guess I'm frustrated by how badly they have mismanaged this.

I cant wait to make the play in, get slaughtered, and do it all over again next year, definitely building a contender with 12-15th picks.

Yep. Team really needs another high lottery type talent. But the path chosen here has made that possibility very difficult.

Can someone find that meme someone created of Masai saying "championship for what?"
