In terms of overall player or due to our positional needs currently?

Personally I wouldn’t be too concerned. These first 10 games were a write-off to me as I figured we’d be something like 2-8 or 3-7 while figuring out how to play with each other. We got some injury/suspension luck against the Cavs and Grizzlies, but the biggest thing to me is our best players have played like our best players and CMB has looked really good. Always thought this team had a real chance of winning ~50 games, but it comes down to health. We’ve weathered the storm without Poeltl in large part because of the aforementioned Cavs/Grizzlies games, but we’ll need him back soon. I just hope it’s not a revolving door of injured players coming in and out of the lineup as it has been the past few seasons.

I like Jakob very much, but when it comes in terms of potential i have CMB higher.

Its just stupid u dont reward a player after having the game he did in Cleveland.

If the raptors lose that game to the Cavs, the "fire darko" and "fire bobby" comments were going to enter high gear.

I just don't talk about it, try not to think about it and avoid anything to do with the series on YT. Worst loss in the history of Toronto sports.

Not pissed just a bit sad.

We overachieved this year imo. Exceeded all expectations, so I can’t be mad.

look at it this way, at the beginning of the year most would kill to be able to watch their team get to game 7 of the WS. they played their hearts out against a more talented team, and made some 1st timer mistakes(mainly on the basepaths) super proud of this jays team and dont feel anything but grateful for the season.

all that said, go raps!

If Bucks own us in the frontcourt again should we package Ochai/GD for Robert Williams +draft comp?
