  1. Geez!!! Here is a crazy idea…why don’t we have GTJ as the lead guard and let go of FVV if we’re trying to save a dollar?! Turning 24 soon and year 5, GTJ is only getting better averaging 18pts per game?!! With his player option still in tact, the only reason he goes is if the Raptors trade him (for what…another big man) or we just don’t want to pay him what he wants?? He is showing consistency n youth is on his side as a key to compliment Scottie and Pascal

  2. Dude , FVV it’s extremely political person “Bet on ur self “ n FVV getting more n more slippery nowadays not good 4 a vet 2 get this kind of attitude. 🤔 P.S. it’s also getting cocky now, not very humble 😞 #Taiwan hardcore fan

  3. Anthony Black would be ideal for the Raptors to draft. 6'7 PG. He got an amazing handle and can attack the basket. Also he can defend.
    Raptors need a guard no matter what. I'm ok trading GTJ as he is at a high and we can get some draft picks

  4. Nah unless we can trade one or both for a superstar don’t trade em . See what they got if not let ‘em go as. Free agents

  5. Trading Gary Trent this guy is an idiot Gary Trent is 23yo and the best offensive player on the team. When we butter Pascal Siakam, OG Anunoby and Fred VanVleet when they score over 20 points Gary Trent is consistently scoring 25-30 points per game. Fred VanVleet maybe because he is constantly having this back problem that pops up every time we have a good opponent.

  6. The team appears to play so much better when Fred is not on the floor we see that in most of the games they win without Fred VanVleet.

  7. FVV and GTJ straight up for Trae Young? Maybe throw in a first-rounder? The people who hate this deal are the same people complaining about the Raps not going for Mitchell when they were laughing at it back summertime.

  8. The ideal situation is we trade Fred and keep GTJ, since he's taller, currently better and way younger. However, if GTJ needs big money to stay and we can't trade FVV, I'd rather let FVV walk for nothing and try to sign GTJ with that money.

  9. To improve shooting you trade one of your shooters? The fred trade is duh batman. Not smart basketball or financial decisions to keep fred long term in his current role. Said the same thing g about Lowry too short gets bullied by big teams and lack of center means your pg can't get bullied.

  10. This is a solid take. FVV can still offer great value. He’s not in the ideal situation in Toronto. He would thrive next to another ball handler, or as a bench mob leader.

  11. We need to face the reality that no team has interest in Fred, best case scenario is let him walk and save money for GTR

  12. The raptors better get something for Trent before he signs with the Lakers and we lose him for nothing.

  13. Lakers dont really have any players that entice me in addition to having minimal draft capital due to the AD deal. Trading FVV to NOLA or Orlando seems to be a more logical fit for Toronto
