he’s a pg and I don’t care about how good Chris Paul looks

Chris Paul doesn’t take the hits lowry does


Only thing is with lowry wanting that money a sign and trade is all but guaranteed at least we get something

Unless he goes to New Orleans, they just cleared their cap space

they'd prob give him the 30 mill per :heh:
I'd take the rights to lonzo ball, trade fvv and have a lonzo/suggs backcourt :ehh:

I think they're straight up giving him the $90 mil/3 years, no S&T.

I'm more interested to see if these Siakam rumors are legit. Most likely not since the Raps never leak any news. Can't wait for draft night to see the direction of this team

I hope the rumors are legit.

Yeah, I completely get why you're down on Siakam. He's 27, so he should be in his prime. But he's showed signs of decline in two straight seasons. His game is based around his quickness and flexibility. He doesn't have a varied offensive arsenal. Admitted that he didn't do any work outs before the bubble. What's going to happen when he's 32 and at the end of his contract? Will he be the same guy?

You're ok with $30m for lowry to take hits. But against paying $20m to fvv for the exact same things.

I don't get it.

I really can't stand folks who are so blinded that they think the raptors should bring back lowry.

Same folks who wanted the blue jays to pay jose all that money :mjlol:

Um no adios lowry I don’t even want him back

what I was saying is whoever pays lowry that type of money while thinking but Chris Paul looked good is in for a world of trouble

if this was hockey lowry would be a power forward while Paul would be a finesse guy

power guys pitbulls in any sport never age well


I want Fred gone as well

I’d rather a Suggs/Trent backcourt going forward

and move fred for a big

dude shot 38% from the floor this year :picard:
he'll be 28 next year

Raps are going to resign gary trent to like a 4 year deal prob paying him like 22 mill a year

why have a 45 mill backcourt? Raps also have malachi flynn who will make a leap this year

To me trade van vleet for a big

roll with a suggs/trent backcourt with flynn as a backup

Not his fault he had to become a first option scorer. Can't expect him to be Kyrie Irving.

DeRozen/Lowry back court was like $58m.

Now we will have Vleet/Trent/Flynn/Sugg for roughly the same. We got the depth back, no need to move or change.

Anyone have any second round prospects they like?

I feel like they should just take a buckshot approach and draft 2 centers there

Probably like Bassey the most but I doubt he lasts that long in the draft
