I've seen someone try to walk on in. He wouldn't believe it was an achilles injury but I knew it was cuz I heard the pop.

I actually like the idea of acquiring Bam especially if Giannis is going to Miami.

I think the price for Giannis is a bit steep for the Raps and team chemistry wise Bam fits better and can defend the C position well.

If there is a way for us to send RJ, Jakob, Ochai and maybe 2 picks to land a star C in Bam, I would definitely go for it. Miami maybe takes Jakob as they probably will need to send Ware in the deal.

I understand wanting to be good to Giannis, but the Knicks seem like a poor fit as a trading partner for Milwaukee. They would have to take back win now players as assets, and then hold the bag on trying move those players to others teams for rebuild assets.

Saw on NBA today, they did a whole segment on Giannis and of course they didn't mention Toronto. Then Danny Green brought up the raptors unprompted and they quickly went to commercial. Danny still got us

Could you imagine Wemby and Giannis together? That would the craziest front court.

I'd need some sort of verbal long term commitment from Giannis before considering trading Scottie. Giannis could leave at the end of the 2027 season, which would be terrible. He doesn't seem like the kind of guy who'd do that, though.

Is he becoming injury prone or trying to tank his value to help his new team?

I wouldn't trade Scottie for Giannis straight up.

The problem is, we're not really in a win now kind of situation. I'd do it if I thought it would put us within striking distance of winning a Championship, but we're still so far away. Giannis has such glaring strengths and weaknesses that the roster around him needs to be taylor made for him... I don't think Poeltl and Barrett work at all with him.

Most likely iQ, Poeltl, shead, cmb and dick. 4 1sts and swap for Giannis, Anthonyand Portis

Scottie, RJ, BI, Giannis and Mamu
Anthony, Jacobe, ocahi, mogbo, Portis
Hepburn, florida, lawson, temple

The Giannis dream ended once Masai was let go. Guys like Giannis have personal relationships with the owner and we all know Giannis ain't gonna be cool with Ed Rogers with how Masai was let go...

Celtics may offer to part with JT. If not, Warriors 100% will be all in on acquiring Giannis to play with Steph. I got those two teams as sleepers.

Because clearly he cant get it done as the go to guy.

He probably has 2 years remaining at his current level. You dont want to give up the future unless youre the knicks

What a dub if NY turns KAT and OG into Giannis and Turner. Way more stability, less injury risks. The east would run through them now:
Brunson
Hart
Bridges
Giannis
Turner

Holy… goodluck

I don't think Giannis wants to go to Toronto even if Masai is here.

Probably just 1 move away from being the Pacers from last season.

Wow at the picks Atlanta has... they are well positioned going forward. If I were them I would dump trey for picks and expirings.

Bucks ..damn wish we had their first rounder this year...

Return to Toronto Raptors
