If that is true, the Raptors must be jinxed, since Julyan Stone failed his. Maybe that is enough reason for Nate to stay away? I see Dallas as a better fit anyway.

Buycks and Stone failed physicals? Or was that a typo in the Kevin Bryant tweet

@accfanto Excuse me? I'm not a journalist or a blogger? I'd beg to differ. How many NBA players/writers have you spoken to?How many articles

@accfanto have you written? That's right 0. Don't talk behind my back on a board. You know nothing about me or anything I know

It's just a Q&A that's transcribed for the web. He's basically sent them 10 questions, they sent responses, and it was called an interview.

My favorite part:

I was just about to write "fml," but then I saw your addition about the source and now I'm all "lol."

But it's still plausible that Nate would go there. Damn, I hope not.

See, I don't know if Nate going to the Raptors even if for more money initially will be a good financial decision. At least in Chi he will continue to get noticed while in Toronto he'll fall off the face of the earth.

Doom · Post #1208 » by **Doom** » Sat Jul 13, 2013 3:44 am

he has the opportunity to get so many local sponsorships, as well as national **** if he stays with us. look at what the NBA did with that commercial of him, it was fantastic. he shouldn't bother with any team that doesn't have a chance at the title

A minimum contract players' stock drop?

What are they going to do pay him by the hour?

pylb · Post #1214 » by **pylb** » Sat Jul 13, 2013 8:38 am

His stock will drop anyway because he'll be over 30.

Jon Lucas was cut by Toronto, so there you go. He will be Nate's replacement. Our FO's big signing.

I sure hope not....why not get a long lengthy sg or sf instead of a midget ball hogging backup 4th pg

You talking about Lucas or Nate?

It's safe to change the title of this thread. We extended him an offer of 120% the vet min, and he still likes us (even though we gave Dunleavy the MMLE.) If he doesn't get an offer better than the vet min, and there are no signs that he will, he's going to sign with us.
