Trade Deadline Discussion & Rumours (Thursday 3pm) - Raps and NBA

[will]

All those rumors of us looking at centers from Jakob, Turner, Nurkic, Etc to ending up with Drew Eubanks

As good as those rumors of the Raptors going on a playoff run

[bape_lovers]

lets see, gave us GTJR/Marc/Serge, GV for 2 picks which turns into Norm/OG..thats just a few

Masai is the king of trade deadline disappointments

Trade deadline edging. One minor release.

Furthermore, Drew Eubanks is the type of physical big this roster could use, and the deal also creates a $5.25 million trade exception while comfortably ducking them a few million dollars below the tax (not a minor detail). But above everything, it’s fascinating to see the Raptors likely surrender a first-round pick for what may be a months-long rental on someone who’s only logged 43 total minutes in 2022. The Eastern Conference is basically wide open, and their self-belief as a threat to emerge as the last team standing should be growing by the day. If Young can carve out real minutes in their playoff rotation this trade will likely have been worth doing, though that’s no guarantee.

Apparently, Spurs fans like Eubanks a lot but never got playing time since.

Well if we somehow don’t our pick is lotto protected

Raps desperately need ballhandling off the bench... Banton and Flynn aren't going to hold up in the playoffs and we have 0 Fred insurance.
