It's almost the same exact deal that Graham got traded for without knowing what the future considerations are.

Would be cool to know some of the major deals that “almost” happened across the league.

He was on the verge of going to Portland.

I got "4" 1sts and a 2nd...I wasnt trading graham unless I doubled the draft capital MP...and besides- I respect the moves that 2010 was making some that many dont know and another move that someone else made pushed me to do this deal- very happy with the deal and very happy he went to Toronto!

Now that I have all of these picks and swaps again- time to clear some roster space:
He 's one of our own and was drafted 4th in the G-league draft this season- let me know if there's
any interest:

Allonzo Trier- $3/4 years

Been waiting for the yearly blockbuster from Smash where he somehow finds a way to pair two superstars together. I think you’re the first GM in history to stop it from happening. On behalf of all WC GMs, Thank you!

Who is broke and needs some cash?

This guy will provide you with some breathing room ($70 expiring this summer) and immediate two-way production (63 SCR | 65 DEF).

I was the one who passed up on Bron....

not once (during FA), not twice (when trade window opened up), ok only twice :lol:

At the end of the day we're better off without Bron

That's yet to be decided till this spring. It's ring or bust for you at this point. So you better be right to pass on LeBron for depth.

Plus, if I were you I'd rather have LeBron in the fold when Siakam walks and Whiteside's ratings next season have him playing like Marvin Bagley III.

When you realize Whiteside is Bagley III's backup IRL and ponder the SIM implications of it...

Whiteside carried Magic to the first seed in the east and Bron was carrying y'all to the worst record in the league, who's the real King?

People have been unsuccessfully predicting what the sim is going to do for four years now, Whiteside will be the same beast he is now, his per 36 minutes are on the same level and that's what matters.

Spoiler:

Y'all need to stop playing and come get this money in the form of Eric Gordon's 3&D production for the rest of the season. Then finagle that cap space into some value free agent signings (yes, multiple) or a significant trade.

#fwmykigi ...Raptors do trades that benefit all parties. PM me!
