If we did have a choice between Herro and Precious, we absolutely made the right choice imo

I hope not, spending 3-4 years in the lottery is. Bad look for a franchise that needs to, and has been changing its perception to the league over the last 8 years.

We don’t have the luxury to tank a few years and still be relevant


Why wouldn’t we tank for a couple of years? We aren’t even close to contending and we’re one of the youngest teams in the league

I don't think people remember how a year older OG looked offensively...he was basically PJ Tucker, park in the corner and hope he can hit a 3. Siakam was 3 years older and literally had one post move and could catch a pass on an outlet pass...

Barnes looks better in the open court than they did at anything, much better passer and is younger than both, give it more than 3 SL games before you throw in the white towel lol

Scottie has 5 blocks? I haven’t really paid attention. Only saw 1. Going to need to see highlights of them all I hope.

My only question regard Precious is whether he can really be a 5. I feel he’s more of a 4. Otherwise he looks special

I would say from the first 3 games i watched of Barnes , His offense is not NBA Ready ....Its barley G-League ready...

He shows Flashes ofc but thats not enough for a daily spot on a NBA Roster right now....His defense is great off the rip though...

But all in all it will take him 3 years to have any kind of NBA Offensive game to him so patience is Key...

Be ready for another top 7 pick next year though fellas...

Precious is impressive

Yeah, impressive NFL body. I don't know if he can be an NBA wing though.


He might have to become a PJ Tucker like 6'6 power forward to stay in the league. He's already a better shooter, but PJ knows how to foul all game long without getting called for it. An elite skill

Right because we have no use for a 3 point shooter.

I'm probably getting senile, but am I crazy to think in some time he can play the 3?

That’s just hard to accept, the NBA wants this era of raptors success to disappear and be forgotten ASAP, and I despise playing into that. We need to refuse to go away

Will be the shortest starting Centre in the league at 6 feet 7.5 inches. I still like him more at the PF spot.

Return to Toronto Raptors
