Bruh, I'm looking at this AJ Griffin dude. His skillset is exactly what we need.

No! How dare you! What we need is valuable playoff experience as the 8th seed!

You'll know by how we play against full rostered top teams. Not just W/L, but how close the games are. This team has needs still and the easiest venue is the draft. FA is not an option outside of Canadians maybe. My preference was always to get another late lottery pick at least and then push in 22/23 when some of the top teams may start to drop.

We already have like 6-7 wins because of covid protocol/teams resting players because they don't want them to come to Canada. We should be like 13-24 instead of what we are now. Could be comfortably in that 5-7 draft range. But here we are. Currently 19th in the draft with a chance to lose to either the Bulls, Bucks, or Nets in the playoffs.

Lol yes we have won a bunch of games due to other players being out for covid but we have lost 0 games due to our own players being out for the exact same reason.

The wins don't count but the losses do. Even though both were impacted because of Covid. Got it. Good stuff.

If all things were equal we’d have more wins than what we have now.

Yes of course, Los, Canada dry, hell even Johnny Ball. It's All the Same Person. There can't possibly be multiple people who disagree with me. It's unfathomable.

Thanks for finally admitting, now carryon with you lame gif game.

Crack open a Canada Dry. Chill.

Fake loss is dictionary.com's word/term of 2022 so far.

All wins are real. Most wins are fake- 720.

The cavs and maybe the sixers game, thats about it. But go ahead and be proud about those two games and call them moral victories or something idc. Lol

When did you update that sig, 720? I just noticed that now.

A couple days ago. Since realgm allows double sigs I photoshopped two sigs and cropped the pictures. So I can showcase higher res images better. Pretty cool eh?

I've been saying this is the non-top 5 guy I wanted. I say now past tense because I think he's gonna sky rocket up the draft in the coming months...

He was a top 5 pre-college, now he's getting back into the groove after an injury and reminding people why he was projected that high. I think he'll crack the top 9 when it's all said & done, could see him being as high as 6. I was just praying he'd take his time to get back in rhythm and would somehow slide to maybe 11+ and we'd be there to scoop him.

But now I'm not seeing that from either end. I think he shoots up as he continues to pump out 18+ point games, show more n more he's better than Keels, Moore. Then there's us and the Raps are looking like they're gonna draft 16-18. At this point, I'm just hoping even TyTy Washington will still be available lol. I think all of Mathurin, Duren, Hardy, PB Jr, Brown, Davis will be gone before we pick but of course I'll pray one of them fall through. Failing that I think TyTy will be there because he's "only" 6'3, not very athletic and not a big frame but he's a baller. I see him dropping like Maxey, Quickley etc except I'd argue he looks a lot better than they did and just a really damn good feel for the game. I don't see a star player but I could seeing him being an "OG level" prospect (not skillset) and become one of the better PG/SGs in the league but not a star. But when you're that far back in the draft, you can only hope to luck into a star but if you can't you'll obviously take a OG level type every time if you can. Unless one of those other names drop, I feel like might just have to hopeful for TW.

How many futures should we trade to trade up and get him? is he nba ready? Can he help the team compete next year?

Hey guys I just have a question. Now that it's pretty clear Masai has chosen a direction (looking to upgrade our C position and our bench depth) due to all these leaks coming out attaching our names to Turner and Poeltl, isn't this a good time to take a break from spending all your time drooling over these prospects highlights?

There's got to be better ways to spend your time. Like you know, spend time with your family and loved ones, go out for a walk and get some exercise, etc. Spending all your free time checking out these videos is the same to me as perving at Instagram models. Complete and utter waste of time. That's all I got.

Those weren't leaks.

If we get Turner or Poetlt for cheap (Boucher/Dragic, Flynn, a protected pick or whatever) the tank is over. We're too close to that 6th-5th seed range at that point.

Oh so now it's 2 games? How did you draw that arbitrary line? Is it because I pointed out your terrible logic? Can you please make it 3 or 4 games for my own piece of mind. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!?!?!?!?!

Lmao that all you have to say? Really? That's it??? And you claim to partially represent an entire train of thought AND general strategy on how to proceed going forward? Lol fckin nephew. Not all of you tWos, just this nephew and anyone else who thinks that covid only hit our wins and not our losses.

I was expecting a detailed response on how each loss counts but the wins don't (with an absurd claim like that - clearly I missed something) and I was looking forward to reading it. Legit, I thought you had gone through each one and came up with a reason based off something real.

Like a basketball analysis, but that's on me.

Those were literally the two games we got impacted through covid protocols but go ahead and continue with the rambling. lol

Ninjabro acting like we manifested the tank movement. lol It was a natural progression of the team. If the team decides to treadmill we're just gonna have to accept it (Treadmill Nation sig stocks will rise).

Also, we're all on the same forum so follow your own advice. :lol:

What do you think is ideal for this Raptors team?
