On of the most recent is Kevin O’Connor of the Ringer, who pitched the Raptors to make a blockbuster trade with the Golden State Warriors. Ben Rogers breaks it all down.

if we trade Siakam, we need someone that puts up about 20pts a game plus covers most of what he does and then some. We're not getting that. So we getting a free agent to sign here? No, we're not, we dont have that luck. So we drafting someone and going to wait 4 to 5 years for him to develop and hope that he at least matches Pascal? Not saying he's untradable but we need value to return, or a means to fill the role and points. Nevermind Pascal actually showed that he can play ball in playoffs unless you all forgot how valuable he was in the finals for us?
Klay from 4 years ago? Sure
I rather siakam
Klay for Precious and Gary Trent makes sense. Why are we in the business of doing other people favors by taking out their 🗑
We need to trade Siakam.. I am sorry but he just doesn't work with the current team with our horrible spacing.. If you can get Kuminga and Moody you pull the trigger cause this guy's value is dropping off a cliff atm
spicy always starts slow
Klay plus 3 first round pick ok then
I actually like the paskal for klay trade with a pick
I’ll pass, However I would do Siakiam for CP3 and Moody
warriors are desprete this year. this is prob the final year they think they can contend, give them siakam and he becomes a legit number 2 there, and if klay finds his game along with draymond they will contend. give the raps kuminga, moody, wiggins and 2 future first round picks. kuminga is a natural raptor, moody is a nice young play and wiggins a hometown kid you can keep or flip for more draft picks. this is a win win for both teams
Only Siakam trade with GSW that is acceptable is for CP3 (salary filler), Moody, and/or Kuminga, and 1 first pick
Is this another Scams Sharnia trade rumour?? Why would we want a declining super star for our best player? All these stupid rumours make no sense.
It make sense for the raptors to get a 3points shooter we need that but what the golden state really need🤷🏾♂️
people need to stop tryna shove star players out the door. rn it's pascal yall want gone. soon enough it's going to be scottie barnes that you guys want gone.
Klay fits the system better. Bit slower on D nowadays, but provides that shooting threat. Obviously would need to get some youth in a deal, but Rap fans seriously over value some of our guys. Scottie being at the 4 with Siakim gone would totally change Raps' pace and open up the floor.
Its a no for klay lol, but add him with kumigina and moody maybe
Coming from a dynasty, Clay probably won't want to play here. If he does, he will not stay. Why bother?
For what? klay, and kuminga, moody, and picks??
Klay is completely washed! That would be insane!
I would trade Pascal for Andrew Wiggins.
Klay for Otto. Thats it.
Klay for Spicy! No! Just No!
lmao Klay?? Kuminga, moody, wiggins and 2 future first round picks will probably do it.
OG. Stays. If he’s traded I’m done with Masai
Buddy Hield is someone we should’ve tried to get.
Stop with this nonsense!!! We don't need expensive veteran leadership at this time 👴👴👴🩼 Finding vet leadership isn't hard. There's always one or 2 out there. They can sit on the bench or come off the bench. Etc Haslam for many years in Miami . I understand salaries have to match. Only way to consider doing it is if there number one draft picks thrown in ,(which we desperately need) a player or 2 with potential under the age of 30. If OG and Pascal are on the trading block?? We should absolutely be looking for players around Scotty's age and first round draft picks in return. Follow the OKC way of doing things. Turned out pretty good for them🤔!! Unlike many teams out there we are not in win mode now. You will always find someone who is willing to pay for your one of your best players. Especially if one of them played a big role to Win a championship. Possibly Philly???
Think of all the assets that George/Paul and Harden gave to other teams. 😮
Andrew Wiggins stats
this season 12.8 ppg,
43.3% FG, 26.7 % 3pt
shooting
KLAY Thompson 16.7ppg, 40.7% FG
36% from 3s
DON'T TRADE PASCAL
unless you get a
promising elite player
Moody Kuminga and Paul are pretty good short and long term additions especially since we’re strapped on cap space and have no draft picks this summer.
Klay and Kuminga for Pascal would be perfect for our team!!! Surround Scottie with shooters. I know Klay is struggling but shooters always get their touch back
I hate saying it and I don’t want him to go, but Pascal does have to go. He and Barnes have too similar of a skill set, and we need to trade him for someone that can really space the floor to clear out the lane for Scottie. Having both Pascal and Scottie allows other teams to fill the paint since we don’t have enough serious 3pt threats.
Spoiler alert: Not happening… not for siakim
Why can't we be a team that goes into the luxury tax? What are the theoretical parameters that seemingly do not allow this? Sign the players we need to sign. They saved 120 million when Fred walked. Let's use some money people!
Moody, Kuminga and Wiggins or Paul for Siakam
