Randle is a very very smart man. He about sums it up.

Let this be another example that the treadmill is never the way to go.


This team and it's management is stuck in a freakin time loop. They never learn from anything. I figured Masai was a fresh set of eyes along with TL that would come in and see things for what it really was. I guess we're just cursed.

It takes a good deal of patience to actually rebuild like the 76ers are right now, patience that this organization has never really had.

Although the sad thing is that if Lowry never became that good in the first place, Masai probably rebuilds midway through last season and we're not in this same predicament now. Lowry turning into an All-Star potentially cost this franchise a lot.

Even the most delusional of all Raptor fans have gone into hiding. It's finally as clear as day.


Nope I'm still here bro. I agree though changes need to be made and klow needs to be traded and casey needs to be canned right now.

fire tom sterner. i hate these overly positive, completely unrealistic douchebag people. fake as hell personalities. might as well wear a mask all your life.

as someone said earlier, shut the borders tonight (air and land) and keep these unspirited players and coaches away from toronto.

I think you've completely missed the fact that Sterner's doing a gimmick for these interviews.

If coaching is the difference between winning and losing 4-0 (20+ deciding game), they should be paying coaches max contracts instead of players.

What really killed it was when the trade fell through, the team goes on the road against the Lakers and win. They reel off a few more wins to get close to .500. And Masai says, F it I'll give you guys a chance do your worst. And they proceed to go on in improbable run way above their talent level. It's his fault for being so passive, too nice, wanting to give these guys a chance. Two years potentially wasted. But hey, good for MLSE's bottom line. I could care less about that though as a fan.

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.

Only thing keeping me from giving up on this team is Masai. I trust him to dump Casey, and hopefully Derozan. Even the rebrand is looking appealing to me now. Done with the group

with all due respect, a team that was scoring with the very best of them (with a so called defensive coach at the helm) does not have a talent issue! believe me!

Sorry! Take your blinders off on that one!

What a bunch of pandering **** too post that. I hate being patronized like that. How about go out and get a real PF and SF? Oh and start with a new coaching staff too.
