Yiss b’y
Nooooooo
Oh no
Gary, Fred, Nick Nurse and OG are all represented by Lebron's agency (klutch) through Maverick. Knicks also had problem with Klutch, Does this mean anything?
Scottie, Pascal and OG, One has to sit, or get traded… forward position is too crowded.
Gary is a pro,and will do whatever needs to be done to win.
He is playing for the bag this season and being a team player will bode well for him going forward for the young man. GO GARY
Having Barnes, Siakam, and Poeltl all in the starting linup almost guarantees we'll be the worst shooting team in the league. GTJ 100% needs to start.
masai is cooked if he enters the season with 3 free agents again, surely it can't happen again right ?
Barnes gotta be PG
What are the Raptors doing? We hired a player development coach and they're making every move to not develop our young talent. Raptors are slowing looking like a dumpster fire, there is no direction. What are we competing for? Play-in? Get the young boys some reps.
Staring line up needs shooting (Trent Jr). Bench needed PG, leadership, depth (Schröder)
So:
PG: Barnes, Schroder, Flynn
SG: Trent Jr, Gradey
C: Poeltl, Koloko
PF: Siakam, Precious, Boucher, Young
SF: Anunoby, Porter Jr, McDaniels, Temple
PG: Dowtin buying for a spot
TWO-WAY CONTRACTS
PG: Nowell
SG: Freeman
SF: Harper Jr
If Koloko doesn’t come out strong Precious will back up Poeltl but I think Koloko is going to pop.
I’m so set on Barnes taking the PG spot so much so if there is any funny business restricting his development as PG he should demand to come off the bench like College. 5 minutes into the game playing with Anunoby/Siakam, Koloko, Gradey, Precious, etc. Get familiar with whatever Raptor’s future is going to be and/or Grab 6th man and/or prepare to walk/exit. Prove what we know to be true. He’s the future. The PG.
He he walks the team is going into a depression. Vince post years stile!
Bro Gary is so good as a starter! but when he plays off the bench he doesn’t do that good. so I think he should start
It’s a good thing that Siakam averages good numbers with poor spacing because the shooting of the starting lineup is absolute garbage.
Who cares who the starters are? The goal is to win games with everyone contributing
For anyone who doubts Dennis' judgement, how could you possibly question the decision making ability of a guy with neck tattoos THAT great?!
Oppenheimer had the same tiger neck tattoo. I think. I fell asleep during most of that movie. Might be thinking of Barbie. Anyway, GREAT neck tattoo! You'll never regret it!
bench or starter, rajakovic got a lotta weapons this season 💥
The starter in my opinion should be: Barnes, GTJ, OG, Siakam and Poetl. Bench: Schroder, Dick, McDaniels, Achiewa, Koloko. Barnes made it clear that he has always played PG and that he wants to play PG.
Someone has to come off the bench… I just hope Darko doesn't play anyone over 38-min a game like Nurse used to do to all of the starters.
GARY TRENT JR
SHOULD BE A STARTER👍🌠❤🇨🇦
