anunoby frustrates me so much, dude hs the height athleticism, but he doesn't use it.

I know he's not 100% there with all goig on in his personal life but he's been joey graham at best this year


He has to hire a coach and work on his dribbling with the ball and work on a series of moves this summer...HE cant come into camp next year without having added anything...I dont think its a guarantee hes gonna get extended if theres no improvement next year on the offensive side...

He needs to learn how to walk/run efficiently.

He runs so low to the ground while his upper body is independent from his lower.

Hes completely uncoordinated like hes learning how to do it for the first time,he leans forward when dribbling the ball...It looks so goofy.

He needs to do off season dribbling and handling drills where hes changing speeds and direction and then start adding moves...
He cannot come into his 3rd season and still have an anemic offensive game...where he cant score unless hes cutting or shooting off the catch...

Some Raptors fans are idiot but we have up a 26 year old JV

JV is a average defender garbage rim defender who in this new NBA can only play 20-25Mpg

You can get centers like him all over the league

If you're not a star in this league, you are replaceable. JV has a nice skill set but he didn't come without his flaws. They gave up a bunch of role players and got a guy who was a star in this league. and someone is still a high level competitor. I'm excited to see how Gasol and Siakam will play like together.

I wonder who they'll get on the buyout market. They got 4 open roster spots. Masai mentioned getting another shooter and a 4. They really need a third PG now, a backup C who can rebound, a 4 and another shooter.

People out on the buyout market:

Enes Kanter
Zach Randolph
Ben McLemore
Frank Kaminsky
Wayne Ellington
Robin Lopez
Marcin Gortat
Milos Teodosic
Michael Beasley
Carmelo Anthony
Markieff Morris
Marcin Gortat


Guys who are FAs right now:
Brandon Jennings
Jameer Nelson
Ty Lawson
OJ Mayo
Trevor Booker
Al Jefferson

Same Raps fans crying about the DD trade. A lotta people have Stockholm syndrome and feel like we owe the world to any player that signs an extension :pachaha: Like Masai said those days are over.

JV was useless in all our playoff exits, why would that be different this year? Gasol is smarter, better passer, better defender, and better shooter. Don't need big minutes from him either.

Ellington,Morris,Lopez are the guys we should be targeting....We just got rid of a bad defensive 5 why do we want to replace him with another one (Gortat)

Besides i cant root for any player who has a beard with no mustache...i dont want that lack of facial hair symmetry anywhere near my team....
