That’s actually a lot less than I thought he’d get.

Yeah, I think the Wolves got lucky with his situation/the money available in this market.

Better deal for the Wolves than Randle, but Im sure it was hard for him to pass on the security

$33M & $25M per year for Randle & Reid, assuming the Gobert is going to be trade to cut costs and to bring in and upgrade at PG.

Highly doubt that Lore & A-Rod the poorest owners in the league want or can pay again to be in the 2nd apron and have one if not the highest payrolls in the league.

Not the worst deal at all

I can't believe we're paying IQ more than Randle lmao

Not bad. Players have done much less getting way more. $30 million for RJ Barret / Immanuel Quickley and they haven't sniffed the post season.

They will need to replace Gobert with a good defensive center with an offensive touch. They will also have to replace Conley and get someone worth it.

Having these pieces in place (Naz and Randle) gives them a lot of pieces to play around with.

I think that is just lack of IQ on the Raptors. Didn't they just fire their GM?

Reasonable. Hopefully this is the new trend.

What is your expectations of Rob Dillingham?

I assume there is no better time to see what he can do with consistent minutes. A veteran would be ideal but the options night be limited.

With Conley (retirement) and NAW (free agency) lossing their combined 268 made three pointers.

Literally posted right before I said the same thing.

Gives you a bit of an idea that hey, maybe just maybe, letting go of Masai was a good move.

Same.
However, Randle, and Rudy need to be moved, once the time is right.

They desperately need to score more in the paint. Ranked 19th.

Don't know about Rob could still see him being moved along with Divincenzo for a PG in Coby White or Colin Sexton which has been floated about and rumored for awhile.

Very fair contract.

And to think Kuminga wants a deal that surpasses this :lol:

djsunyc · Post #19 » by **djsunyc** » Sun Jun 29, 2025 6:06 pm

so he basically added 1 year and may try free agency again

Gobert average 36.5M a year for the next 3 years. So, depends on who we get back, I may prefer to deal either Naz or Randle mid-season. I also don't think 1st apron or 2nd apron changes the tax rate (?). They may need to lower their tax bill but hope they don't.
