So far I think 2 or 3 ppl have supported this, I didn't think the anti-tank tank would be this empty, anyways Kudos for sticking to your guns, it takes a lot of will to watch this team and still have the desire to move forward with this roster.

Also don't trust this guy, he has Raptors era Jermaine O'Neal as a sig when he was already washed up, and is also a remnant of the GM moves of Mr. "There's room for organic growth".


Playoffs for the learning experience, lots of teams get steamrolled their first time in the playoffs (as a group)

ATO's argument needs to be to trade for another star..maybe break up the Lowry/DD/Gay trio into something that works

lot of reverse-propaganda in war. First thing they teach you in war school.

second thing is don't shoot your allies. That one took me a few wars to figure out.

One of the worst aspects of tanking is the debate about tanking. People can't ease up on their POV for even a second. It's still only mid November and we have five months more of this tedium.

Although I don't like he chap on the cover. I'm all overt this, maybe we can be really creative and change or name from ATO to Fans of the Toronto Raptors... What a theory right!?!

PS - I know two members like the raps they just have a funny way of being "fans"

Hey, leave Jermaine out of this. He's just my favourite player of all time. Anyway, tanking does not guarantee any success. Not every team can become the Spurs. For all we know, Wiggins could become a Jason Richardson type of player. Tanking this early in the season is a horrid idea. What if Wiggins and Randle do not live up to their expectations, and we end up drafting one of them. I say we give it some more time. Tanking is way too early.

Why can't we just enjoy the damn wins for a month or so. It's not like we can't break it up in a month. Most teams begin tanking after December/January.

Also, we may grab a good PF before the trade deadline, which will give us more hopes in the first round. I'm tired of losing. It's been six damn years, and that's about all I can take.

The positive thing about this season is, we started 4-5. When was the last time we started 4-5? Playoffs are a possibility, and if we can get that 5-6th seed ( which is possible ) then why not do it.

If we break it up now, we'll be out of the playoffs picture for another 3-4 years. That will be 10 straight years without playoffs. We will become the laughing stock in no time.

PF isn't the problem with this team, unless you think Amir Johnson and Tyler Hansbrough aren't carrying their own weight. If you want 8th place and above, you probably have to address the issue of 3pt shooting, since us winning against the non-terrible teams has a lot of emphasis on being streaky from 18' and out

This is now a tWo thread. Like Hogan vs Rock, while the wrong side may win, we all know which direction the TORONTO fans want to go.
