At some point Martins needs to be fired but I could see the team moved before that happens. Really Really wish we had a Owner who was more involved and didn't cede power to a guy whose more capable running marketing for Fun Spot than managing a NBA Franchise.

Best post of 2019!

Another thing those guys have in common is I wouldn’t pay any of them big money to be your franchise player other than Jokic (and KAT I guess)

Is Jokic in the list?

I was about to respond, "And Jokic isn't even on that list."

And we can't get a bag of Doritos for Vucevic.

Identical twins. Everything makes sense now. #mindblown

It's better to do nothing than trade Tobias and Oladipo for nothing...

Maybe the plan is to wait until the Warriors blow it up!

Oh crap how is Marc Gasol on Toronto going to affect that team. I have Ibaka and Siakam on my fantasy basketball teams and their minutes/ production can take a hit with Gasol added. I have to wait at least 1 game for Gasol to play with the Raptors to see how its going after the 1st game.

Probably Gasol made it clear that he would opt-out and leave.

That’s very easy to avoid.... I would even trust Charles Barkley to not do something that stupid. Just follow one rule:

1) When you’re rebuilding, don’t trade good young players for vets that aren’t all-stars.

REALLY cheap. No brainier for Toronto.

Maybe Charlotte switches focus on a younger Gasol like player :wink:
