"Fire coach Casey" "blow it up" Official Toronto raptors 2015-2016 season thread

[Miggs]

Lowry using his mass to post up Chalmers and hit him with a drop step and baby hook for the series win in game 6

Lowry hitting GW's only in your dreams son...

Basically stay out of the 2-3 spot if you want to avoid Miami, they are going to be a ridiculously tough out if Wade is even remotely healthy.

Even with Dragic i think your overstating how great they will be...Wade healthy we'll have to worry about...IM not worried about Bosh in the playoffs at all....
Dragic meh....

 

[Miggs]

Why are you guys so convinced the raptors are so good? They would not be hogher than the 9 seed out west with this roster...

Thing is im not convinved they are as good or bad as they have looked....fact is they are second and in a conference where 1-2 moves could have made them a favourite....I know we joke about this team during the last month when they were awful but EVERY top east team had some hiccups recently...

Were closer to the top and than the bottom much closer....yet Masai is playing this like were in 11th place which concerns me....

Annual @Miggs "I'm not worried" talk right before losing a series to the exact team he talking about, season in full swing

OF course thats followed up with the traditional @Malta exaggerate everything thats said diatribe....Im still not concerned with Miami like i would be Chicago or Cleveland...

I dont like the fact Masai is putting all his eggs in the 2016 basket...If we cant win a round up til then THAT cap space wont matter one single bit...

So basically were just riding out two seasons with this roster give and take a few minor tweaks til 2016....i hate to think we go out early both years then dont sign anyone of signifigance in 2016 and were left holding our dikks...

I know about cap space and he probably doesnt think this roster is THAT close BUT were gonna win 54-55 games at some point you have to play for NOW and not keep playing for 2 years away......I hope this doesnt blow up in his face,i hate that we didnt even try to bring in a big man....

I just don't think there was any market for Ross with how bad he's been. The only real valuable piece we had is the upcoming Knicks 1st rounder and I don't really blame him for wanting to hold that. Maybe we could have gotten David West but that wouldn't have addressed our biggest need( rim protection).

I'm OK with not making a move for the sake of doing it or giving up too much for something that probly still wouldn't have made us a legit title contender.

We gonna throw hands at Caribana this year, I'm sensing some animosity :Chokedout:


Be concerned with the Heat, they would be a tough out with just Bosh and Wade, now with the emergence of Whiteside and trading for Dragic they legitimately have more talent in their starting 5 than you.

 

[Broke Wave]

How good does Masai think we are to not do anything? Did he watch the low points of this season? Does he think we can beat Atlanta or now Miami with this Exact same roster? Im baffled like... How would adding Kenneth Faried and Wilson Chandler not help us at all? For essentially nothing?

farried is a much better upgrade than amir
plus you wouldnt even need to resign amir

essentially you get a better player and only pay a few million more than what your paying amir now.

even a guy like aaron affalo would have been worth it

its been 20 years and only one second round apperance to show for it.

This roster aint going anywhere a few select pieces and who knows what would happen.

raptors are going to win like prob 54-57 games

why not go all out this year, the cap is goingto go up

whats the point in having chuck hayes , landry, tyler, lou expiring contracts we could have upgraded

Wade isnt completely healthy and may not be ever again..Bosh as No 1 guy is pressure game p*ssy and we seen it first hand
Im more concerned going up against a team with a physical big front court that plays a real methodical slow it down half court defensive game like Chicago....

No animosity,im on the welcoming committee this summer....

I'm not even saying the Heat would beat you, but to not be concerned with them is straight loco breh.

Whiteside is a big physical frontcourt all by himself, we seen what he did to the Bulls bigs when he was healthy.

Welcoming committee? sounds like a setup

wade isnt healthy but hes averaging 22 points a game

wade is the type of person who will go off in the playoffs and put the team onh is back

you dont think if heat v raptors first round that bosh aint going to stick it to us
ala like what vince did?

 

[richtree]

I wonder if the raptors even made a pitch for afflalo or Chandler ..both would be good additions. Faried is nice but his contract is bloated and adds no rim protection which we desperately need. Masai must be thinking that he can scam someone into signing with us in 2016 but I'm not buying it

As i said hope hes got something planned this off season cuz the stench from a first round loss this year will be ten times worse...
