Please God no, keep Cuban and Kidd as far as possible from this front office.
They downplayed a little bit the move by Masai for the Raptors to go after Kawhi. I think people forget a lot of people at the time didnt think it was a wise move because Nobody thought Kawhi would re-sign with the Raptors and gave up decent younger piece for the team(Poetrl) and a fan favorite/Legend in Derozan- who had no desire to leave becausehe loved Toronto. Even a lot of Toronto fans werent that excited (I have famil who are from Toronto and they acknowledged they didnt think the trade was great at the time). So lets give him his credit, it was a legit bold move that ultimately worked successfully
Hes not a bad choice but he's been to the finals twice w us. One as a player one as a coach. I actually trust him more as a coach for fear of the unkown tbh
I wouldn't trust Kidd with my pet rock
Atlanta came out and said they won’t include Risacher in any deal.
That does it.
Let’s move on.
Take AD off the market, play out the contracts of Kyrie and AD until the summer of 2028 and try your best to win as many games as possible starting in October of 2026.
Of course keep both out UNTIL THEY ARE COMPLETELY HEALTHY (lol), which should be sometime after mid April 😂….maybe Dumont is right.
Maybe just play out with these dudes until there is no tread left on the tires.
They will both opt into their final year
(Pretty much a guarantee at this point) so let’s have some fun.
We are amazingly deep and won’t have to play these guys more than 30 min a game so HOPEFULLY they can play 60-70 games a year for the next two years. Let’s make those swaps worthless and those picks land in the 20’s.
I vote Darrell Armstrong next GM!
JK will hire scouts and coaches and then make them play the point until he understands their thought process.
Why he would be a better fit than Finley is beyond me. Finley has been groomed for this moment. Heck he's learned from Keith Grant, Don Nelson, Donnie Nelson, Carlisle and Cuban on and on.
