Lots of people on here wanted to draft him over Dick. They also smacked table when we didn't trade Siakam for him.

This place has always over-hyped rookies. The guy warms the bench every game and people wanted to trade our All-Star player for him because of “potential”, smh.

Fred Van Vliet has torn his ACL, out for the season. So no Fred when the Rockets visit in November.

Damn that’s brutal. I honestly don’t think he can recover very well since he’s already behind most nba players in terms of size/athleticism. This might be it.
2019 Eastern Conference All Stars

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

It would be wise for them to just tank and rebound when Tatum comes back. Boucher is going to be the Raptor killer next year, I could feel it already lol.

Yep. They are just a Jaylen Brown ‘injury’ away from tanking for the 1st pick

Delon Wright signs with Pacers, reuniting with Pascal. Non guaranteed though

Grizzles injury report. Jaren Jackson, Brandon Clarke and Zach Edey all have injuries or surgical followup with 4-6 week time frames for recovery/re-evaluation. That makes them iffy for the Grizzlies visit here on Nov 2, especially Edey and Clarke

Not only are the Celtics going to win more games than the Raptors but they are going to make the playoffs in the weak east

Lol typical Grizzlies. Wouldn’t surprise me if the Pelicans are already ravaged by injuries too.

Getting that last pay cheque before retirement, good for him, haha.

He's basically a coach at this point and is also doing analysis for NBA prime this year.

He’s preparing his body to draw charges without hurting himself when he lands on his ‘back’.
"But the thing is, maybe I do want to wake up one morning and say, `Baby, let's go to the Bahamas. Today.' That costs money. So what if I want to do that?
