Im not pro long term Hinkie level tanking that would involve moving everyone for picks but a concerted effort to try and get Cade Cunningham this season while keeping Pascal, OG, and Fred is the best move. The Lowry era has been an incredible run, way better than any of us could have ever imagined. Its time to move on, collect some assets and start fresh back home in Toronto.

A tremendous clutch loss against the second worst team in the NBA. Raptors should lose the next three as well. The Top 5 Draft Slot is within reach. Well done team. Time to move Lowry and Powell for picks before the deadline.

In order to finish near the bottom, they will need to trade Lowry plus at least two of Siakam/OG/VV/Powell as well. And even that might not be enough.
Bingo.

Exactly we are a very deep balanced team, just like in 2019 this team only needs one superstar scorer to go all the way. Would have been nice if we has gotten Harden but not for the purpose of hurting the whole team. This year it's Brooklyn (with a healthy Durant)LA teams again everyone else are just treadmill pretenders. We can make some noise in the east but will short of beating a healthy Nets team.


Yup. We're almost there.

Come on guys give the team a break. They're millionaires living in sunny Tampa, driving exotic cars playing basketball for a living. It's hard being away from cold, bleak Toronto for the winter.

I would accept the #1 pick but if there was ever a time to get in a 2 month coma it'd be right now...29 games left of pain

Going to have to utilize this championship DNA for the tank.

Early on in the season I mentioned I was really high on Kuminga and I still am. If we don’t get in the top 2 (Cade and Mobley) I fully expect Masai to go after the African beast. Jaylen Brown/Siakam hybrid without the weak Mentality of siakam

Noticing a whole lot of last minute votes coming in for trading Lowry/Powell... Some people just want to act like they have been here the whole time I guess.

Just realized we’re only a game away from the 5th pick. With Denver, Phoenix, and Portland coming up we could very well be in the bottom 5 within the next 10 days

7th spot in the draft now with a decent shot to move up and grab a top prize.
