Raptors will not be trading Pascal, OG, GTJ or any of their core players unless FVV wants a S&T. Look for the Raptors to draft a solid player at #13 then try to bring both Poeltl, FVV back then waive Thad Young on June 30th if they can't trade him. No major free agent signings are expected given the current roster depth chart but it'll be interesting to see if the Raptors use their MLE/BAE for potential free agent signings like Terence Ross, Seth Curry, Dennis Schröder, Will Barton, Josh Richardson, Dwight Powell, Caris Levert. The UFA pool for 2023 is slim pickings. What the Raps depth chart could look like after draft-f/a:
CP: Poeltl/Achiuwa/Koloko
PF: Siakam/Boucher/Young
SF: Barnes/Porter Jr/Wieskamp
SG: Anunoby/Trent Jr/#13 FRP
PG: FVV/Flynn/Banton/Dowtin Jr
Plus three two way contracts: Harper Jr, ?, ?
I think the wizards also got Danilo and the 35th pick, but still. This seems terrible for the grizzlies.
Sooo cheesed with this trade, I wanted the Raps to get Tyus Jones. So underrated.
Ben started this video like he just hopped out of bed frustrated 😂
These trades are irrelevant and don't move the needle in any way
Come on raptors pull the trigger let’s get scoot and Jones
He’s an alien man, he’s got thirst Cory/Trevor arms
Run it back Masai. We don't want other teams bums for our stars. Tune out the casuals
Couple a seasons ago ? Marcus smart won dpoy last year damn you misinformed smh lol
Winning the headlines in June is like a sugar rush, feels good in the moment and then it wears off and you need the next hit . These trades are good for the Raptors asset value and tonight's trades make it likely they move on from Pskills. Coach Darko knows all about Jones so he may still get flipped to us though so many point guards available at #13.
Happy to see ryker even if only in a stupid little video 😉
The Washington deal is terrible – Boston got 2 first round picks and the wizards got a bunch of guys and second round pick 😂 . Fire the GM , last time I check that the wizards are tanking not Boston.
I think this is why Masai is playing hard to deal because other teams are trying to send us their trash 🗑 with no picks , nope .
Siakam and OG are on expirings, they're worth nothing while Smart has 3 years left on a team friendly contract.
LMAO usually i just watch these and focus on what Ben says, but having Ryker pop up with his hands and mouth tied was hilarious. Good to know hes actually well, and wants to be back.. Haha
Side note:- Stinky pinky to Boston definitely should boost our guys' value 👍
Nice hostage
Boston Celtics get:
F/C Kristaps Porzingis
2023 first-round pick (No. 25)
2024 first-round pick (via Golden State; top-4 protected)
Washington Wizards get:
G Tyus Jones
F Danilo Gallinari
C Mike Muscala
2023 first-round pick (No. 35)
Memphis Grizzlies get:
G Marcus Smart
If the celtics can part with the heart and soul of their team in smart then masai has got to let go and sign and trade Fred and trade Pascal no more African bias no more personal relationships trade them we need to rebuild and get scoot please 🙏
Develop your players allow them to grow become a team have great chemistry let the players learn through experience so when the time comes you are able to win a championship. If you keep trading your better players because everyone else is making trades. your only giving away the players you have that have great experience so you can potentially get young players later on that may not develop the same way. Please make sense of it!!!!
dude your dreaming….the value of smart is the same the value of draymond green to the golden state og has not have a leader mentality smart can call brown and tatum a ball hog do you think og can call his teamate like that in memphis point they need someone to tell ja that he was a moron
Let me remind the Raptor faithful that we have three guards on our bench and which Nick nurse did not play and did not allowed to develop. Maybe they just needed some time on the court. This year they may get some playing time and we may be surprised at what great defensive players they are and what great Playmakers they are and what great Shooters they potentially are. So they keep saying we have no guards is incorrect. We have NBA guards that need experience. I'm honestly beginning to believe Raptor fans are becoming average NBA fans. It's a copycat league and the Raptors are not a copycat organization. We are trendsetters please remember that.
Masai says sorry but no he's all in on this squad, we DEFINITELY are beating the Bulls in the play in this year!
Also you don't seem to understand that having a good player under contract for 3 years is much more valuable than having a really good player for just a single season. There's a reason teams don't want to deal with Masai. If he wanted to make moves he needed to do that at last seasons deadline and instead he doubled down in baffling fashion making sure his assets value dropped more and more.
Damn the biggest news is Ryker on the small monitor. WTF is going on ? Is this a come back ?
Dude portland and the charlotte don’t want OG or siakim. You are not moving up. They both say massai is hard to deal with…
Why does everyone enjoy being fleeced by Boston
He's got a Tyus Jones Jones, lol.
Losing trust is Masai as the days go on. If we don't make a move in the draft I've officially given up on watching this upcoming season. We. Do. Not. Need. To. Run. It. Back.
toronto needs to rebuild or it will get ugly real soon
