Top 5 and we on the run - Official Offseason Raptors 2021 Season Thread

[Guess Who]

Are the Raptors back

I mean we playing better but we still only have one consistent player in the rotation which means we gonna have ups and downs all over the place. I would love if Siakam, FVV, Powell and OG could string 15 to 20 good games together. Only Boucher and to a lesser extent Lowry since the road trip have been consistent this year.

Yeah same. It's bad basketball but do we really need more years hovering around 7-11 and playing in the stupid play in tournament this summer? fukk that, I rather have a potential superstar. This year's top 5 has a bunch of guys this team needs. Aggressive scorers, floor spacing defensive big, good passers. We don't need them to drop to 15-16 and take more smallish guards or athletic wings who can't shoot or dribble

I noticed in both conferences teams are so weak


the only real garbage team in the east is Detroit


If raps want to tank that’s basically moving lowry and Boucher

First round exit incoming. Masai don’t give a fukk, he’s gone soon.

They should absolutely move Lowry if they can get some firsts out of it. There's no way he's coming back next season unless they give him similar money in the summer

if we are not tanking which i disagree with then gosh damn trade for a center now. Len and Baynes might be the worst starting center/backup center in nba history. Don't even think Aron baynes would get playing time in a aussie league at this point.

Nah, the NBL is one of the worst international leagues out there. Might be even worse than the Canadian league that airs on CBC. There's some 1-2 prospects out there now (Josh Giddey and Mojave King) and they've produced quite a few NBA players recently, but the domestic talent level is very low

So bad they were willing to eat his fully guaranteed salary

Available 5s on the FA market:

• John Henson
• Thon Maker
• Dewayne Dedmon
• Omari Spellman
• Dewan Hernandez
• Kyle O'Quinn
• Tyson Chandler
• Ante Zizic
• Ian Mahinmi
• Skal Labissiere
• Justin Patton
• Kenny Wooten

Yikes. I guess they'll bring in Henson or bring back Dewan. Wouldn't mind Kenny Wooten, he's insanely athletic

Edit: How could I forget BRUNO
