We could have said fuck it and tanked hard to secure a top 4 pick but risk the chance of upsetting Nurse/Siakam/Fred and hurting our winning culture but we ended up firing Nurse and losing in the play in anyway…..and trading next year’s frp. They really fucked it up.

It was MSLE. They were pushing the team. They wanted profits or something to recoup some lost profits. Someone can add to this as I forget what the reason was.

Reminds me so much of the Canucks smh. Out of all the years to tank and potentially get a generation talent they both decide to play for it for the “culture”…

We wouldn’t have to be hoping for some dramatic jump in the lottery if they actually accepted the season as it was and just bunted
To put it into perspective, we had better lottery odds than Portland at the trade deadline. Hope that ~~play in~~ game 83 gate revenue was worth it for MLSE

Masai has shown he is a top tier scout first. He went to France in January to check out Wemby and when he got back he traded for Poeltl and took a run at the play in rather than going full tank. Makes you wonder what he saw in Paris…

I wish the raptors had Walker Kessler and next year’s pick.

Mismanagement.
