If we got Cooper, Barnes and RJ better be hitting the trade market.


In 2 yrs you'd say the same thing about Cooper when the next new prospect hits the stage


I’d prefer to get consistent scorers around Cooper. What lineup would you run otherwise?

I would send RJ to the draft lottery. Let's use some Duke luck and bring some more Dukies. RJ, Ingram and Fagg. Lucky number 7 plus local Duke kid. I feel like we're getting the number 1 pick.

If this happens we spend like crazy. Extend RJ for 2 more years $50 mill. Extend Poetl for 2 years $40 mill.
Spend the MLE on a backup big.
Spend the BAE on bringing back Kyle.

Spend it all... 1st Apron, 2nd Apron, 3 Apron... RAPTORS IN 5 Baby!

Poetl/MLE/Comche
Barnes/Mogbo
Flagg/RJ/Battle
Ingram/Walter/Dick
IQ/Shead/Lowry

I don’t believe that he’s really 6’6 but I’m still intrigued by his game if we don’t get into the top 4. Probably gone by the time we pick if we don’t move up.

Doesn’t matter, you tank for the best odds possible so that you have the best chance and if you do drop you don’t drop too much.

Now we know why Nico traded Luca to Lakers made a deal with Silver get Luca over to LA and we'll give you top pick. I mean, they arent even trying to hide it.

That's a foreign concept to Team Treadmill.

This stretch right here, where we played everyone full rotation minutes is the reason why we’re picking 9th instead of slightly higher.

Maybe if we won more games we would have won the lottery. Or maybe keep having a meltdown

This season can be summed up as half measures.
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.

Return to Toronto Raptors
