[Baraheni] For those tracking Tankathon, tomorrow’s game against Memphis has some extra stakes to it. Lose, and the Grizzlies jump the Raptors in the standings. Win, and the Raptors further separate themselves from a chance at top 6 lotto odds.

Tomorrow will be an easy win for us. We are not getting top 6. Will win a few more.
Also worth noting: Blazers would be only 2-3 games ahead for 5th odds (It depends on if they win/lose against the Lakers tonight) and they may be getting back Simons soon if he’s recovered from illness
It isn’t easy and I would wager 6th will be tough enough to hold as is, but it’s possible we manage to hold on to those odds
Is that like Toyotathon but for tanks?
WHY DO WE WANT THIS PICK. People don’t understand if we keep this one then it puts a choke hold on picks we can trade in the future because of the stephien rule, and it’s a shitty draft class, we can just get our pick done and over with and go to next years draft that is assumingly at least better than this one with our own pick????
It’s not even all star break yet
Wow, didn’t know that. Good thing this guy let the people know
Oh god. This is like the worst place to be in rn. Winning hurts. Losing hurts. Everything hurts
looking forward to more possible “gems”
Hey should just run all the 2way guys other for more minutes. See what they can do.
It’s way too early in the season for this
this isn’t relevant with 40 games still to play
6th worst gets us less than 50% chance, so imo there is no point.
But tbh, the discussion isn’t even worth having until post deadline. Having no C was bad before, but we were team69 so it was not as bad as it is right now. Yak will hopefully be back soon, and I think we have no choice but to add more front court depth.
Masai needs to absolutely knock this draft out of the park and unearth 2 all stars to fix this mess he made by being too attached to his players. His job should be on the line this summer.
David Silver really needs to pull this one out for Toronto. Why does Cleveland always get the favours. Raptors are important for a huge market, it’s a country. We’re not even asking a for the top pick. Just give us #2. David and the NBA gotta make this work out. Do us a solid like they always do to Cleveland….. discreetly
Thanks Es, theres still half the season left to be played, glad you got some retweets and replies tho
All I care about right now is the deadline.
Tracking lottery odds is completely futile. It’s January.
We will give up a 7-11 pick to Spurs. IDC if that’s a weak draft or whatever, that’s a huge asset for yak. It’s a terrible move and I’ll always stand by that.
I would be fine if we got yak plus other pieces. If we wanted to compete then go all in, maybe moved last years pick during draft night to get reinforcements.
Half assing was dumb
I feel so crap about this team because we didn’t decide to choose a direction ahead of time. If we go 30-10 our record is going to be 46-37. If we go 20-20, 26-47. 10-30, we go 26-57. None of these are at the pace of getting in the playoffs, nor out tanking. We’re stuck in no man’s land fr.
Is it only me that finds this guy annoying?
time to play dick and the promising youngsters to let them improve and we tank.
