  2. The focus moving forward should be to get Jakob Poeltl on steroids as soon as possible. Prioritize Barrett over BI (who looks like he's increasingly baked with every passing game). The front office should look to move IQ or Ingram in the off-season. Would be nice to move Poeltl, but I don't thinks that's realistic with his contract.

  3. How can they be expected not to play crappy when the officials, crowd, players, media are being as disrespectful, obnoxious, and corrupt?! Also the team needs a few changes we need a better big man than JP he actually sucks but I believe the team needs to stop trading n let the team become a team

  4. Unfortunately this is an issue about the team being the only team in Canada. Especially now 50 percent of the USA ( ie the NBA) sees us as the rival or even the enemy.. Because of this lack of exposure to the main stream US media.. Barnes does not get exposure and gets memes against him… Unfortunately there is an unofficial tax you have to pay to get players to stay here in Canada away from home ( USA) Having an European coach helps as we can get Europtean players like Sandro here. But there will always be Americans who hate Canada ( Ie Steven A Smith and his rants against Canada winning the title) and we will have to give money away.. Now Rogers can afford it.. Pay up. .The Cavs have a 100 million dollar salary contracts than we do.. Yes JP, IQ, and BI have brutal salaries but this is the tax for being the only team outside the USA>

  5. Too bad that the Raptors cannot afford to resign RJ. Looks to me that AJ is going to be his canadian replacement or maybe J Mo is going to take a leap this summer and play like he played in the G league

  6. All you fans out there who think CMB can be the centre of the future , don't put that label on him ! He cannot compete with the bigger centre in the league no matter how HARD he works ! Great player though ! Looking forward to watching him for many years in the future.

  7. BI recency bias is going crazy in the comments, I believe without him we would be a play in team this year. When healthy he carried the team during many a cold shooting stretch. Quickley is different tho, his contract is just too big.

  8. I am so surprised Gradey Dick had such a crappy year . Comparing him to Battle , there is no comparison ! I guess he won't get a contract extension. Mogbo should be let go as well. Toronto has some bad contracts but they do have some good ones, Battle for example what steal. I hope Mamu will stay for reasonable contract. It will be interesting to watch Bobby work but DON'T TRADE R.J.

  9. I was wrong, Scottie Barns can be a 1 or 1B on a championship team. Idk if BI and SB can as top 2 can win a chip tho. If we could trade BI and Jakob for a decent big, maybe Sabonis or Turner, or even Walker Kessler we could have sth going.

  10. Love RJs heart and will to go inside during the series, but you can see in all 4th quarters he doesnt have the dribbling to penetrate when defense is paying attention to him which they dont the rest of game. And hip jumper to counter that just isn't close to good enough, just watch hardens push shot floater that almost always goes in. If he is a 4th option it workshop, but money wont

  11. Really dissappointed with I.Q with injury issues and I am pissed with Ingram , he was good all season but he let the team down in the playoff !! Yak has to go into the off season and get stronger , develop some muscle !

  12. Trade: iq, poetle, gradey, and a first round pick for missi and trey murphy the lll if you can’t get trey murphy the lll trade: b.i for tyler herro

  13. We had no business pushing them to a game 7. We should be proud that. No IQ, limited BI, limited JP and undersized rookie centre. We got heart, and lots of potential.

  14. Jacob is a solid player. Is he going to be overpaid? Yes. Is it worth using draft picks to get him off the books? No. That's just compounding one mistake with another mistake. They made a mistake – take your lumps and live with it.

  15. Extend RJ, it won't kick in until 27/28 which will be BI's last year (if he opts into his player option) so we'll have all of 26/27 to really see who we want to trade and what avenues for that we'll have

  16. Most Raps fans knew and still know what Scottie can be. Most of the hate came from the rest of the league who only saw stats and highlights without actually watching him play. Now that hes gotten the exposure from the playoffs you can see how the narrative on him has changed drastically

  17. These playoffs just made it very clear to the ones that didnt already know or was in the "fire him" group…….. Masai should of never been let go.

    Scottie – Masai (draft, everyone wanted suggs)
    RJ – Masai (trade)
    Shead – Masai (draft)
    Ja'kobe – Masai (draft)
    CMB – Masai (draft, everyone wanted malache)
    Darko – Masai, (hired)

    Thats our core, built by Masai

  18. 1. We need a mobile big
    2. As long as Shead develops a J we have our pg/ back up pg of the future
    3. Another Creator who plays within an offense (BI is too much of a ball stopper)

  19. I absolutely love what the Raptors accomplished this year! We weren’t even supposed to make the playoffs this year and we did. Ended up the 5 seed and took the Cavs to game 7 that pretty damn good.

  20. All Scottie haters need to apologize now. Ill accept the apologies under this comment. Time to admit your wrongs and concede your eye for winning basketball is what you thought. All good we all live and learn. Scottie is here to win!!! Straight Dog, is a leader and better yet my favourite he’s a Point Guard! Scottie magic!!!!

  21. Scottie is mini Giannis. Go Cavs but the mobley Scottie debate is over. Mobley played really well and might've been our best player but that's how good Scottie was is and will be. You guys are better prepared than we were 2 years ago or Detroit last year.

  22. What if packaging RJ with him is the way to move Jak? Throw in Gradey too.
    I'd actually like to see RJ stay long term but poor Jak may never be his old self again which makes his contract a huge negative.

  23. This game was given to the cavs by the league and refs. The whole concept that star players can get a foul called on the defender and stars getting and ones ruins the best teams win aspect of basketball. Harden would have been forced to retire 30 years ago if he didn't can a foul called on the defender every time he throws back his head or ends up on his back. Disgusting. Three refs and crap calls for marketing and tv views.

  24. Ingram wasn't allowed to draw any touch fouls from his back down offensive style. Game 7 was abouy bully ball and refs calls for cavs.

  25. For me one thing is clear. Besides the injured players, this that had even 1 minute on the playoffs should be traded, not because they are bad… but because if darko didn't even considered putting them over 7 games, means that he don't think that they have it.

  26. report coming out was bobby webster called the pelicans about trey murphy, and the pelicans wanted a desmon bane type of return for him. so RJ Barrett and 5 unprotected raptors first for Trey Murphy. win win. they will take gradey as a flyer also for free.

  27. Watch ur show all the time.. been watching Raptors from day 1 … they need to upgrade at the centre position flat out… 32 million on Quickley straight overpay … CMB is good but undersized… Shed is an offensive liability… Grady defensive liability and both super inconsistent as shooters… Barnes is to passive aggressive.. RJ must improve at the free-throw line… Walter must improve off the dribble and playing through contact… BI’s gotta b stronger with the ball and more decisive when trying to score … Lawson needs more minutes.. Mamu sometimes tries to do 2 much… I know it seems harsh but everything I said there is facts… I love my squad, my city even more they definitely over achieved and the future looks brighter than ever … hopefully with some growth, they’ll be able to reach the next level

  28. The Angry Serb is back making hate and lowlight videos of RJ Barrett Again. its why you see his FanBoi's going around making threads on social media bashing RJ and wanting him traded. But if RJ is traded and Ingram is hurt next year, SB wont average 15ppg on the season by himself, and the raptors will be a lottery team.

  29. Watching how limited Jakob was this whole series, literally non existent half the time- I can't believe he was given such a contract to where his presence on the team is handicapping the group the way it does. B.I had obviously been injured this whole series, so I'd like to see how he does running it back hopefully with JB and Jakobe filling that shooting void next year. Keep RJ and find a more athletic big that can fight other bigs for rebounds, contest other bigs and get steady points and be more than a passer consistently for this team. Land 1 more consistent shooter and I feel like they would be at another level
