i've changed my mind as well time to ship out norm as well
can't have all that money tied up in a van vleet/norm/siakam /og core when you ain't winning with that

trade lowry and get the best young player you can and trade norm for a first rounder

I was confused when u said u wanted norm to stay. Ideally he’d be a good fit but the core is so mediocre that u cannot afford to pay him that much. If they only found a way to trade Siakam but he’s the worst contract in the league. Even Wiggins is serviceable. Honestly the Raptors need a hard reset. I’d trade everybody and pull a trust the process for the next 4 years starting with the draft pick this year

Forget Trading Norm i want to trade shyt Stain Trashcal....im sick of this nikkas fakkity passiveness.

9 points on 4/12 and 3 rebounds against the Cavs,nikka is beyond a p*ssy.I will celebrate the day this smiling ass fakkit is gone.

That play where Sexton drove into him and started flexing while this clown was holding his jaw was just the end for me....I cant even root for this guy anymore.

We need to blow it up. This core is going nowhere. OG is worth keeping but everyone else can go.

Nobody gonna want Pascal with his contract. I’m afraid we are stuck with him. Skill deficiencies are one thing but who woulda imagined that dude would have so little heart or fight in him.

Nah, there are teams that could use Pascal, even with this current contract.

You're right, it's the only way. Great that Norm has improved this year, but he's turning 28 this summer. It would be an awful idea to pay a 32 year old Norm 20 mil a year, based off a contract year performance. This is the first year he's played well consistently too...at 28. Locking 80 mil a year on Siakam, FVV and OG is already crazy, giving 20 mil a year to Norm would be handcuffing your team into treadmill territory for the next 4-6 years :francis:

They need to do the right thing and trade for young players and picks if the right deal is there

Yeah, Norm is fools gold. He tends to disappear when the defences tries to take him out of games because he can’t create for himself...like every other player on our team haha.
