Might as well look to trade anyone worth a damn and just go all in on the tank with IQ and Barnes out. Flagg is the prize but this draft is super deep. Probably hit on a star player with a top 5 pick
Tank or bust and everyone in that room knows it, is on the same page and willing to slip on a banana peel for it.

It will be interesting to see what they do with Poeltl. He's a key part of the lineup but if they can get a solid trade for him it will help the rebuild. They also have no one to replace him.

Mitchell, Brown, and Boucher should be traded assuming of course a team wants them.
 
Watching (well flipping with hockey) Raptors for like first time all year.

If they could get RJ, GD, SB..... healthy IQ and then hit on the 2025 pick that looks pretty dam good on paper if they can develop . Not really a rebuild like other teams that need like 5 years just to get pieces. Still need a Big I guess.

Not really sure how I feel about Memphis using Vancouver throwbacks and "honoring" their heritage. They stole the team from here because the lying sack of garbage owner was able to buy it by swearing he wasn't looking to move it only for him to do exactly that. I can't imagine it going over well if OKC ever tried to wear Seattle throwback jerseys.
 
Whoever narrates this history of the Raptors documentary is terrible. He sounds like he's a carinval barker on a midway trying to hustle people over to his booth, not someone telling a story.
 
Just saw the box….but oof.
Eaten alive on the glass, and Memphis was able to shoot the lights out.
The ugly kinda tank game, and shows that Poeltl is missed.
Haven’t really followed the last draft class closely…..but man oh man, Zach Edey.
Almost shooting 60%….8rebs in 21mins….and even 45% from 3? Good on him.

Depending in the position of the draftee I think at some point a trade will need to be made. Outside of IQ being a PG the rest basically pay the same positions.

Quick scan of top prospects in the upcoming, most also appear to also play the wing position.

Gotta trade Poetl Mitchell Brown and Boucher. 100%

Poeltl is tricky. He fits well with the team and is a decent age. More importantly, there isn't a replacement on the team. If the Raps had a young rookie who could replace him, it would be different because they could get a solid return for him.

The Raps should only trade him if the return is a big overpayment or they somehow acquire a center in another trade.

The Raps are in a good position. I will be curious how they address the depth at the 2/3 position. I am thinking at some point, they make a trade.

The NBA needs to get the GMs together to make sure the Raptors draft Ace Bailey and he needs to wear #6

This season is a complete crap and I’m only watching it for the tank and for Darko to lose his mind.

Darko holding back his inner Euro coach. Trust me this is nothing compared to what I’ve been them do. :D

Respect, Darko. Good for you for calling out the trash all star, American team based biased calls from the refs. It happens too much. We’re perfectly capable of losing on our own without the help from the refs.

4D chess. We will get all the bad calls now and draft top 5
 
It was one of the worst Raptors games of the year. I only watched the first three quarters, but the defense was horrible. Defense seems to be getting worse which is worrisome. There were too many turnovers. Team seems to lack focus and intensity.

Focus perfectly on a top 5 pick lol
 
Team is way too soft. Not much fight in them. Surprised attendance is still fairly strong. Season ticket holders must be giving some tickets for free.
