I thought CMB was toronto's next star.

Still need a center. Championship team nt with Poetle.
B
Same per as Wemby if it holds up it’s superstar status the next Larry Bird. Wishful thinking.
Cmb way ahead and will always be ahead.
As good as he looks he jams faced a grown man yet lol still going up against other kids
We get rid of TJD and sign both Bittle and Sharpe. There’s no point having TJD who’s 6’9 and can’t shoot the ball. Ik Sharpe can’t shoot either but I’d much rather have a 7’5 big that can’t shoot but protects the rim at an elite level over a 6’9 player that doesn’t shoot or provide much of anything. We sign Bittle to a standard contract and sign Sharpe on a Two-Way to get reps with the 905 and the main roster if Jacob gets injured.
Maybe Bittle as he more NBA ready, 7’5 young guy is intriguing due to protect abilities just doesnt look ready as yet
Yes
Bittle over Sharp but ideally both stay with the organization
B – would love to keep both tho
With Sharp on the team, you're gonna have 2 centres that you can't play at end of games because they both can't hit free throws. Does that sound ideal to you??? Sharp is for the future but Bittle is the clear choice for now because he fits everything we need!!!…..
You still can't win without a durable and capable centre with or without Kawhi. By that I mean a REAL big and not some 6'6-6'8 wing who "can" play the 5. That ship sailed long ago. Hell, it never did set sail to begin with.
Graves a regular off the bench player his first year then needs to prove himself to get playoff minutes. Only time will tell. Bittle seems more viable at this point in their development.
Graves is alright. Best case scenario Joe Ingles / Worst case: Dean Wade. Philon has more upside.
Bit early to talk about Graves playing in the playoffs. Loads of promise though. So many tools, smarts, work ethic and learns quickly. Can't wait to see him in the preseason.
Saw for the others it's easy. Sharp and Lundy have earned exhibit-10s along with Bittle. Let's see how things shake out in training camp and preseason. Raps may need to find a way to keep all 3! May need to waive Bradley and sign him to G League.
Graves is looking more a high level role player/glue guy who can do a little bit of everything. Gives me Jorge Garbajosa vibes. Also agree that Bittle is a better fit than Sharp.
Don't lose Sharpe.
B
Seth Lundy is last year’s Alijah Martin.
He secured his spot when he made that game-winning block.
Dudes been a stud whole summer league shooting defense playmaking he could be like a deni advija
If CMB plays – Raps win SL Championship.
Lots to say about Graves – but lets mention Bittle.
I read that lots of scouts were surprised when Bittle wasn't drafted.
Will he be an allstar, probably not – but he has "steal" potential written all over him. Maybe the new FVV?
I keep hearing people say Sharp is not an NBA player. Who is signing Sharp to play in the NBA now ? 🤔 Did Ulrich play in the NBA right away ? 😳 . There’s too many short sighted fans out there that don’t understand development! Everything doesn’t have to be about right now. This is the same reason the Raptor cut Hassan Whiteside who didn’t look like an NBA player. A few years later and he become a borderline allstar. You are not signing Sharp because you need him now. You are signing him to develop him like we the did with Chris Boucher who was the same body frame. You need players in your system that why they give you 2 way contracts what’s the point of having the 905 then ? You need players in the warehouse.
Personally I would give Bittle a roster spot, Sign Sharp to a 2 way, cut Bradley and give his 2 way to Lundy. I wasn’t impressed with Lundy in the first game but he did step it up in the rest of the games. We don’t need Bradley if we have Hepburn. I never understood the pick. He just reminds of even worst version of Lorenzo Brown.
Everyone take a BIG BREATH. We have no one close to a Marc Gasol 2.0 or Iboka. Also everyone is so paranoid they forget that Siakam, Norm, etc were not even on the Roster as an every day contributing player until they were in their 3rd seasons, but all of a sudden all these guys you are preening or years away from big time playing. RELAX
We finished 3-1 and lost the first game in overtime and we didn't make it to the next round. We didn't even have Martin or CMB playing. That's a whole bunch of crazy. Looking good guys we're going to be great.
