If only we put up a fight against Boston man.

The finals was ours for the taking.

No way we can come back down 2-0. Maybe the Bucks can if Giannis starts pulling his weight.

That being said, man Masai put our team in a prime position just to sign Giannis out right.

I think we should expect a serious run at the guy.

ESPN reporters are saying he's gonna join the Bucks or Golden State, but I doubt it.

Miami is more realistic than the Warriors.

ya I think Miami, Dallas, Toronto are the top destinations for Giannis

Miami, Dallas, Golden State have better long-term and short term options that would appeal to Giannis as he would only leave the Bucks to win ring(s). He's basically a complementary superstar who needs someone to close games for him and be at least borderline superstar level as a half-court player.

DORT going OFF.

Dort looks better than most of the Raptors starters right now

Golden State has 160 million committed for 2021, how on earth are they going to get Giannis?

They could dump Wiggins with one of their high draft picks on a team with cap space.

Unless the Heat get that star (Butler already in his 30s) I think Dallas would be perfect... him and Luka would be insane.

I just hope we can somehow land Beal and keep OG plus continue getting those other pieces and well have a good chance at getting him.

That’s still not enough space

That still doesn't give them capspace.

Is Giannis just a Siakam on steroids?

I've been thinking lately that Siakam should really get his weight up. Get some muscle so he can intimidate players in the paint when he drives. He already has the wing span and broad shoulders. Just need muscle to fill in.

Middleton shouldn't have gotten that 3 FTs in the 1st place :roll:

Also if it was the Raptors instead of Butler getting foul by Giannis they 100% wont call a foul :noway:

He's basically this era's Shaq. He needs a Kobe/Wade superstar partner to do the half-court offence+end of game closing.

Dort is playing amazing.
