What direction will the front office point the Raptors this season?
The over-arching theme for the Raptors this season is what direction the front office is going to take? After missing the playoffs last season do that Raptors still consider themselves a win-now team?
Keys to success for the Raptors. Way overrated head coach Nick Nurse is gone. 39% FG shoot first Van Vleet is gone. 28% 3 point shooter, 77% freethrow shooter and inconsistent Scottie Barnes will be 6th man if he does not get better. Should be starters, C: Poetl is a good role player, PF: Siakam is ready for a top 5 year with a pass first PG and better spacing from improving starters and better bench, SF: Anunoby shot 39% from 3 last year, is a very good defender, ready for a most improved player award with extra touches, SG: Gary Trent Jr is only 24, shot 37% from 3, is quick and his D is improving, PG: Dennis Shroder just came off an MVP world championship, is a good leader and a pass first guard. Look out for an unknown rookie PG by midseason named Markquis Nowell. None of these players are over 29.
I’ve lost all faith in Masai. He’s handled things poorly the last few seasons. To insinuate that Pascal Siakam was part of the resin the team played selfishly last year was out of line. Pascal would have averaged at least 7-8 assists per game if his teammates had been able to score after all his dishes when he’d draw two defenders. He’s resorted to blaming his players, which is not a good look for for an executive. Accept responsibility for some very poor decisions over the past few seasons, getting nothing for Fred, Serge and others.

We got to see how they do. Who fits the culture and who doesn’t for the future. If you don’t hoop you gone
Chris Bosh left in a sign and trade. Raptors got picks and a trade exception…not much but not nothing

Honestly, from what Bos Mil and philly still in the mix… Maybe it is time to hit the reset like Portland… 🤔
I thought it was clear 3 seasons ago what had to be done… 6 playoff games in 3 years….😂😂😂
Chris bosh was a sign and trade 🤦🏿♂️
Selfish? Masai himself said Pascal should have 10 dimes a game but, the team can't shoot.
The team is perfect. But I don’t like this Coach. Why would you recruit a Serbian animal? We need pure people on this team.
Raps have no idea what they are doing. All these high paid executives who literally could do what they do in 3-4 hours a week.
