I did a pretty good job of setting myself up so that I could enjoy watching the playoffs this year rather than making speculation videos about a Raptors team that has been free to play golf for a while now. What a playoffs it was. Those of us that kept watching hoops, rather than formulating absurd OG & Pascal trades, got a pretty good sense of where the team is at when compared to the top competition. Let’s be honest, we were a clear step down from the final 8 or so teams this season.
But we’re on the right track and anyone holding their breath for a complete rebuild is going o run out of air. That’s how you eradicate culture, not improve it.
June 20th marks the next important date on the Raps road back to competing for Larry. A lofty statement yet a true one. It all has to do with the very important contract of Raps fan favorite, and man of extremely fun fashion sense, Gary Trent Jr.
In this episode I tidy up a little red sauce regarding Gary, our cap position, pascal, Fred, OG, Thad, and the rumblings of players being upset their roles.
Please, join my quest to stop the flow of Kool Aid. Console me as I do my best to keep the red sauce off of me.
What do you think? Will Gary stay or go? ? Is this good or bad? What happens to Fred? Do we sign and Trade? If so, who would you move and in what package?
Thanks for all your support

Gary HAS been mad quiet!!!!!!?
Super good timing. Love the lack of speculative and silly mock trades. This is super relevant. Love the money stuff you explain. I'd like to see Gary back but don't mind if Fred gets moved or resigns elsewhere.
Ghubbs, you're a chef. Can you make Gary some more thai food to keep him here? lol
Thank you chef!
Good to hear from you Ghubbs!
All the players coming back is not a good thing. I appreciate asset management but Thad coming back is bad, as is Fred coming back. Addition by subtraction is at times a good thing.
You're crazy! Also correct. Maybe not on Fred. He'll take one dollar more to go and we should let him follow his bliss.
Always love your videos
Nice to see you back Greg🤩
good curation of info
Glad to have you back, missed you brother!
Add some chicken balls and a plate of wantons and red sauce is wholly validated. Deep fried dumplings in red die 9# is who we are. Embrace the red sauce.
Elliott Smith and red sauce…
right on
Dude wtf? Why haven’t I seen your channel? PLEASE make more videos😊
I hope we keep Gary. We need shooters and defence and he has both. Keep O.G and Pascal. I think those dudes play well off Scottie
So glad you're back. I love your draft content. I hope you're not too busy to bless us.
Red Sauce being tossed out all over the place lately, meanwhile Masai/Webster standing strong and ignoring the noise! Brilliant posturing by our front office gets other teams frustrated.
💋Chef kiss approved haircut💇♂😘….😛🤮Seriously good to see you back in the saddle making vids!🤠
🙏Nothing yet on Gary🙏….just saying!!
my favorite idea in this video is @11:08 your idea of fred signing a contract like chris boucher is very good. if anything like this happens ghubbs youre a genius.
love your videos man
Great video! Welcome back! Cant wait for your draft video!
He’s quiet cus he don’t wanna be with VanVleet. His best option is to opt in and fight for a Starting role again under new coach. Increase his value for next year. He was demoted to bench of the roster shakes up there could be a way for him to revitalize his momentum again. The. We may end up keeping him permanently. Who knows?
Just not Fred please. The Heat/Nuggets play the game the right way. Last season the Raps played “DIVA” ball. No Fred please.
welcome back ghubby!!!!
can't wait to chop it up with you re draft
Well done. Good to see you at it like a bad habit!✊🏻👊🏻😎
Great video, super glad ur speaking on this
Good video as always. But it would be insane to be a tax team and not even make the playoffs the year before. Any front office who signs off on that has lost their mind. Pascal needs to go and get more youth in the building
LOVE YOUR VIDEO ❤
He opted in!!
Well timed, good prediction
Great video again! GO RAPTORS GO!!!
Yes your back bro been waiting for another video like your discussion videos.
