He still seems shocked and upset (that he felt he was lied to, and owed atleast letting him know his name is out there). Maybe masai said don't worry about all the rumors, you with us, how you gonna get better for next year.
Sounds like he was giving him good advice.
That's ambiguous and not even Raptors specific.

He was “playing for a championship” here in Toronto where we gave him 30m to “play with the biggest chip he has ever had”.
I have always been a DeMar fan but I don’t like how he is handling this trade. I know it hurts. But it’s getting to be too much now. He has had his time to cool down. Should know it’s a business. Time to be positive and move on now.
He just doesn't have the right mentality right now, I can't fault him if it's for personal reasons. But it's something that we as an organization needed to part with to improve.

To be fair, Danny Green was also blindsided by the move and he spent the last 8 years in San Antonio and was a major part of their championship but I guess its different because DeMar was Raptors franchise player.

Done it before. Many times. Saw it once on a post-game interview with him. Thought it showed his true character.

He would have been fair to complain about wanting a warning, but that's not what he said in IG. He said that he was promised he wouldn't be traded and was then traded for a little bit of nothing. This explanation of expecting more of a heads up to get ready, as a sign of respect after 9 years, is a totally and completely different thing. This isn't at all the same as "snaking him"

I still have major love for DeMar....either way he’s gonna be celebrated by the Raptors and this city for what he’s done for us so it’s all gonna be good in the end

Lol did he not realize that when Masai stated that they want to get better next year and what are you going to do? The response Masai was expecting from him was: “ i will leave the team since we dont play better when im on the floor” Masai didn’t get that from him so he decided to do it for him.

Looking forward to the full video link being posted here somewhere to like YouTube or ESPN, so I can watch it later from the horses mouth. Not the same reading these quotes. But I appeciate the effort. Thanks.
