Random sidenote, his wingspan seems small for his height.

Might be right, I can never tell easily. I've seen it listed as 7'1. But really need official combine #'s

According to this, his wingspan is 7’1” to go with his 6’10” height

Tank? Yes. Loser culture? No.
Rest our star players? Yes.
Trade our best players? No.
The big risks of tanking are:
1, loser culture
2, Setting fire to free agents wanting to come here. We already have to pay the Milwaukee/ Memphis/ Carolina Tax.
3, NBA taking the opportunity to screw Toronto or a small or zero market team and we lose a draft pick

Best rewards:
1, Stats geeks run the show and know if you are not winning, you are losing, and this year, the Raptors are NOT winning
2, the 500 ok teams, and team building is no longer part of the model the disaster of finishing 8th cannot be understated, whipping boy with no chance of getting better
3, a Lottery pick
Which leads to: 1, free agents, and 2 a championship.

Nick Nurse is the secret weapon for free agents etc. keeping a good winning hard-working attitude and that is key!

Fake wins racking up but it might even out eventually.

Fire up the tank, boys!!!!

16-12 record now adjusted for fake wins/losses.

And what a surprise, KL78192020 is out in full force after a loss.

Amazing stuff.

We really lost to KD and a bunch of 3rd stringers. :lol:

How long do you wait for Fred to drop his ego? A year? This is the elephant in the room. There are options in this draft to properly build this team around Scottie.

When you've got a guy like Fred leading your tank, anything is possible

Terrible loss, just when we were turning the corner :nonono:

Just kidding :lol:

Calling it now that we go 3-7 in this 10 game stretch.
We are already 0-1. Let's reevaluate after that stretch

I think Scottie could be our clear cut best player next year. The writing is going to be on the wall soon enough, Fred is going to have to fall in line

At 9-12 where do you stand?
