Don't hate it for Raptors. Kept OG and traded the correct pick.

Wow, better than I thought for Toronto. Now, if they can only get Kawhi to come out of his bunker.

Damn, this is a really good trade by Masai, but it'll probably be undone when Kawhi bolts. Least they'll have a cleanish slate with some nice young players (OG, Siakam) to work with. Thought SA would hold out for one of those two guys for sure. Is Poeltl good?

Great move by Toronto. Man, every other team must have been offering a **** sandwich for San Antonio to take that deal. Lol

Read on Twitter


Good call by Smitty. If Kawhi and Danny Green leave (both UFA) after 1 year, the Raps just salary dumped their "star" for nuttin.

However I think we can all agree that it's not too early to laugh at Philly.

Cool individual matchups (not that it works that way in today's game):
▪ Kawhi vs. Hayward
▪ Lowry vs. Kyrie
▪ Ibaka vs. Horford
▪ Anunoby vs. Tatum
▪ Green vs. Brown
▪ JVal vs. Baynes
▪ VanVleet vs. Rozier
▪ Siakam vs. Theis
▪ Powell vs. Morris

I'll still take the Cs in 6 games. That's without counting Smart.

My hot take is that Demar is better than Kawhi next year and Chip Engelland gets him to shoot 36-38% from 3

I'm still not afraid of the Raptors in the slightest.

This is best case scenario for us in the long-term. They'll still choke in the playoffs and then Kawhi heads out West again while the Raps rebuild. The East is ours for the foreseeable future.

Breaking: Kawhi Leonard has re-injured his quad and will be out indefinitely.
