Guys we need to trade Pascal Siakam. He doesn't have a proper release and he doesn't truly know how to create space for himself. If he's properly guarded he'll end up putting up wild attempts at the rim and miss. Like imagine getting Jerami Grant and something else for him. We can get an even bigger return for Siakam.
All this hype and he won't even get traded. 😆
But bigger role makes no sense to me. He plays 36mpg, gets 15 FGA per game, defends the best players. How much bigger does he want?
As with all non-superstars, “if the price is right”…
That being said we should be looking to acquire a talent of a level we don’t already have. OG influences winning to the level I think he should be paired with Scottie long term.
Thanks for nothing (as usual) Grange.
Pascal should be dropping to second/possibly 3rd in the usage rank;
1. Scottie 2. Gary 3. Pascal
Similar to the Heatles structure; LeBron/Wade/Bosh (if We're trying to build a team with what we have and believe in our players to become stars)
The issue I see with us is that the only player from those 3 that has superstar fluidity in their game is Gary, whereas Pascal, Scottie, and especially OG(think we're moving on from him) are too stiff when with the ball.
If we want to move on from Pascal as well, then can slot in Precious there and build with those 3, hoping Precious confidence and skillset keeps improving.
To win a championship from what I have seen, you need a player who has that fluidity, and is at least 6'6" and long, with all-star teammates (Kawhi on Raps, LeBron on Cavs/Heat/, Pierce on Celtics) … ; has fluidity with the ball at any height (over 6') but paired with a 6'10" + Superstar (i.e Middleton/Jrue and Antetokounpo or Steph/Durant or Wade/Shaq). Obviously there are some exceptions to this, although not far off.
* fluid = quick decisions when with the ball, smooth dribble moves, smooth shot, quick on feet (Think PG, Kawhi, LeBron, Durant, Luka, Kobe, Pierce, Jordan, Harden, Murray, Kyrie, Dame, Tatum, Mitchell, etc.)
Thoughts on our structure and how we move forward to win??
the problem with OG.. he always seems to fall every time he play iso. why?
both these hosts need to lose some weight, not healthy
I believe someone got in his ear and told him that he could be a bigger star if he was on another team.
Ask Nick Nurse what offense?.. The Raptors only focus on Defense.. The offense is iso and pick and no rolls or ball movement.. Haha
watch the Raptors do nothing…..
