Interesting how we didn't buyout Tucker and he isn't with the team. Could we be buyers in the buyout market?

this trade is a little light on return compared to comp trades, but i figure the cash is substantial to make up for it. if the raptors use it buy a second then its market value trade.
i think bobby alluded that to that in the press confrence as well.

i think its just a matter of tucker having a buyout location lined up, it doesn't seem like he does thus its taking long, so the raptors will eventually just release him.
raptors will probably just use the roster spots to cycle through 10 days or pick up a youginsh player to give them a tryout.

Or they might sign frank the tank to be Kelly Jr. and lead the tank to the finish line

That is what I have been suggesting will probably happen. At least give him a 10 day or two. Add some money to the pocket & see how he performs.

But why?

I’d rather sign random undrafted C’s to try and find a sleeper. What value does Kaminsky bring?
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

We are not finding a sleeper at the C position this late in the season man come on. Freddie G/ Jontay porter/ ORob/ Frank the tank it doesn’t matter they will all suck man come on.

PJ's career comes full circle from being drafted and potentially retiring as a Raptor is poetic. Give the man a statue.

Should sign Luke Kornet for the MLE. Boston won't be able to afford him. They probably bring back Horford for the vet min.

At least over the tax payer MLE. Maybe 4 years $30 million gets it done?

I actually think someone like Scottie would benefit from Tucker being around.

Tucker is a bum, for some reason he thinks he brings value to a contender. The man has been washed for years.
