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

[Miggs]

This season gonna be rough..

The core is still in tact (Lowry,Van Vleet,Siakam,Anunoby) I prefer Baynes over Gasol,Boucher is a drop off from Ibaka but hopefully Davis and OG progress to help nullify that difference....I dont think were a 2 seed this year but i still think we could win 50.

I still think were in that 4-5 range.

I like that we have some unknowns this year that can be answered:

-Will OG continue to develop offensively?

-Is Siakam a real star?

-How will Boucher do with real minutes?

-Will Fred play to his contract?

Man OG needs to be at least a otto porter jr when he was in washington like a 15 and 7 guy

Siakam , i hope hes in the gym every day

I think boucher will do fine
dude averaged 6 points, 5 boards and 1 block in 13 minutes a game last year, when he got consistent minutes he also produced

Just took a quick glance boucher had 13 games over 20mpg last year, he scored in double digits 12/13

fred is what he has nothing more nothing less

this nikka said Pascal Sacre is a part of the core

wow we're more fukked than ever

Hopefully they can get something for him and not just straight up cut him. Even Malik Beasley got big money this offseason after waving a gun at his wife and kids and going nuts, someone out there gotta still think highly of Davis

Hes paid 30 million and eats it into our cap the next 3 years wtf do you call that ?

They offered Ibaka 1 yr 12 mil because hes not part of the core starting next year,is what it is...

 

[Miggs]

I dont understand the Bembry signing at all,it seems very Stanley Johnson-ish..

It sucks because I think terrence could easily put up like 12-15 off the bench as a backup sf/sg but he messed it up

2 years 4 mill just basically the new malcolm miller

Boucher gonna be fine. Whenever he knows he’s going to be playing a lot he plays well. He looks shyt in spot minutes but usually plays above his skill level with consistent minutes.

Baynes I like a lot and have wanted him for awhile. What was it yesterday where I said we would sign him? He’s the exactly type of player we like—tough character guy, fundamental player, sets strong screens, can shoot the three, can catch on the roll, great paint presence on D, decent passer...he’s the prototypical Nurse and Lowry big. I just hope he can stay healthy.

Could've brought back Malcolm Miller then, they're the same player and Miller's cheaper...Bembry is absolutely terrible whenever I've watched him

 

[Auger]

De'Andre Bembry?

 

[Guess Who]

2 years 4 mill just basically the new malcolm miller

For me it means that they don’t think Hernandez can play yet. Bembry is definitely an in case of injury guy and again, he can shoot. Raptors will not employ anybody who can’t shoot it seems.

EDIT: Just saw recent shooting numbers...dude is awful lol.
