How much cap space does San Antonio have? Do they now need a backup point guard?

I predict we sign Jock Landale from the Australian league at centre. And Birch.
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

very very quick. I rather give those minutes to a young prospect than a stop gap player


To be fair, there were only 2 good free agent centers so after that, it's not saying much.

Also, were you on the Precious bandwagon before we were rumoured to trade for him or is this just a Raptors Homer take? Lol

This is what I've been waiting for years, use cap space to bring on contracts, picks and players. Don't sign bums. No one good is coming here.

build from within


ya the Raptors have no chance at competing with the Nets or any of the other top contenders....I don't know why people are so upset that we missed out on some mediocre free agents

Smelling a Tyler Dorsey incoming.
Everybody is losing their freaking minds. Nutbars and wingnuts have infested this forum. We've become a public lavatory without cleaning staff.

That would be just a useless stopgap


Please tell me how you'd like to address our center rotation?

Internal growth. Precious, Gillespie, and Birch if anything

What’s the point in getting a guy like RoLo if we’re likely to tank this year? Like does he move the needle for contention for us? It’s a waste. I’d rather develop young guys


Ok so just suck lol. I agree that seems like our only choice given our current position.

I was just hoping to be better positioned to solve our biggest weakness by far from last year. Instead, it's going to be another year of the same issues.

forget Tyler Dorsey - we need Joey 'Baby Dwight' Dorsey to make his return. He's a magical 37 years old, so Dennis will be pleased.
