Masaiah Give us a Miracle!! - Official Raptors 2019 Offseason thread

Had Presti been able to strike a deal for George with Toronto -- and Leonard was willing to stay -- George was believed to be willing to join the Raptors, sources said. Presti pursued a package of Russell Westbrook and George to the Raptors -- with the NBA's Most Improved Player, forward Pascal Siakam, as the centerpiece of a broader, asset-crippling deal -- but Ujiri couldn't keep up with the Clippers' willingness to unload unprotected first-round picks into the middle of the next decade, league sources said. Simply, Toronto didn't have the depth of picks it needed to get a deal done -- nor the certainty that getting George would make Leonard stay with the Raptors, sources said.


Woj reporting we tried to trade Siakam for George and that George would’ve been willing to play in Toronto if Kawhi stayed

Sources: Fear of Lakers dynasty drove Clips' deal

 

[JLova]

Should have played dude all 82

Saving him for what?

We got a Chip out of it.

Should have done it

 

[MikelArteta]

If your wife left you and you got a son of it would that still be ok?

 

[trick]

If your wife left you and you got a son of it would that still be ok?

Sure, at least you still have the franchise player on your team

She was an expiring contract anyways

Terrible analogy.

OMG are you serious

 

[MikelArteta]

I never want to see kawhi win again

 

[thatrapsfan]

OMG are you serious

this makes it hurt more. I would’ve taken Westbrook and George back and flip the coin with the Lakers

 

[DonkeyPuncher718]

Isn’t this karma brehs we traded the one loyal above average guy who ever resigned with us for a Benedict Arnold

“Thank You San Antonio”

I hope the fire burns deep in your chest the misery of this day will burn for nba seasons to come

Kawhi, Westbrook, George? Cap space? I guess we'd get rid of everyone else?

Damn.

Lies. They wanted LA.

 

[CJ]

Just woke up. Still processing..

KL to LAC, okay but all this Thunder/Raptors trade fukkery has me what the hell was going on the last 8 hours.

Well, atleast I do not know a single LAC fan, so my timelines won't be blowing up with any celebration.

 

[MikelArteta]

so we lost two starters

looks like

gasol/ibaka
siakam
anunoby
powell
lowry

hopefully anunoby can make the jump to a 15/6 player with shut down D

If a woman gave you marriage and a son but slithers away in the dead of night to some wasteman it’s ok?
