He's probably the main reason why the Raptors went from a laughinstock/poverty franchise to being respected as one of the better run franchises in the league.

Where are all the Masai apologists now? This team looks bad. This team IS bad. :nonono: And I took grief over meaningless preseason games. :lol:


Context not withstanding.

Thoughts after tonight?

How’s Scotty Barnes doing btw?

Scottie Barnes 2nd career game: 25 pts, 13 reb 11/17 shooting incl. 1/2 from 3.

Ujiri is truly our Masiah.

Scottie sure looked like a role player tonight after scoring the most points in the game and leading his team to a 32 point blowout over a playoff team in only his 2nd NBA game.

It is an impressive OP when every point you make is wrong.

Dont underestimate Raptors fans

If they will keep the corpses of Jelani McCoy,Eric Montross and Yogi Stewart alive through threads to the bitter end, u best believe ur Kornel David they will dominate this thread when Barnes starts to fully blossom.

even if Masai is overrated I'll still take him as the Raptors' President/GM over anything else out there

Masai isn't perfect, but you have to realize right from the start he's at a disadvantage just by having to manage a Canadian team...imagine if he was the President/GM for a more prestigious franchise like the Lakers, Knicks...it would be a stroll in the park free agency-wise compared to what he has to go through here.

masai not only acquires talent but hes like a father figure to these players/even coaches, he's literally the teams leader. His value is probably highest in the league when it comes to exec's

I only voted today, when I read that one NBA team offered him 3% ownership and higher than 15M/season salary.
