Report: Raptors "Actively Exploring Trades" for Kyle Lowry, DeMar DeRozan, and Jonas Valanciunas

lol whats up with the Raptors management willing to trade all there main players? are they gonna rebuild again?

It doesn't actually seem like that bad of an idea. The core they have now will definitely never win a chip and will likely be trapped in mediocrity for years

Given how they played towards the end of the season and for the playoffs, it's not overly surprising that the Raptors are considering hitting the reset button. Their defense was absolutely porous, even for the start of the season when they were playing well.

The raptors are a pretty horrible team, the only reason they make it into the playoffs each year is because of the weak ass Atlantic division. I'd say it's about time.

Dwane Casey needs to go too.

yep i can see that

i just remember the Rockets said they need a better point guard, James Harden even said so, so Lowry to the Rockets might be possible

So, you think I'm gonna be mad that Cleveland gets a guy who can barely play 60 games a year....

Sign him for a shit load of money he DOESN'T deserve....

Meanwhile, the Heat are free to sign a player that actually deserves his worth and have a ton of cap space for the blockbuster that will be 2016 Free Agency...


I already said what needs to be said earlier.....This is a power play by Wade, the Cavs do NOT have the money for him and even if they DID....they'd be fucking crazy to give it to him.

Furthermore, IF Wade does leave, it makes the Heat better because it will allow them to have a lot of cap space.

Maybe DELUSIONAL Heat fans think Wade is worth $60 million for 3 years but not me.

In regards to the raptors....
What i think Masai should do this offseason or middle of next season:
1) Trade Lowry. Lowry imo is starting to regress. Hes 30 and his physical style of play finally wore him down hard. It was a great 1.5 seasons of best eastern pg play but i think hes on the decline.
2) Fire Casey and bring in a coach that shows some accountability. Raptors offense is just a giant fuckfest of isos. I still get scars from the Rudy Gay era. One game Gay shot fucking 11/37.... THIRTY FUCKING SEVEN. holy fuck i wanted to kill myself. Best part about it... after the game Casey said something along the lines of "Thats his shot, he had it going" fml.... In terms of defense raps r shit. thats all.

Those are the 2 main things i want done, but NO ONE is untouchable. DD is best used as a 2nd or 3rd option on a contender. Val was so mobile as a rookie.... then the raptors decided to completely fuck him over and made him fatter and slow.

IF he did that, then he will have lost almost all good will that most Heat fans still have about him.

It's one thing to leave because you want more money....

But to leave and take a discount after you made this HUGE SHOW about wanting more money but your real intentions was just to play with Lebron?

No, that would be a huge mistake by Wade.

And How much playing time would he get?

I covered this in my earlier statements too...

We all know he can't play more than 60 games per year, and do we actually believe he would be a starter on that team?

Because I don't.

So, basically, you want me to believe that Wade who is making this big show about wanting $20 million....

Is going to go to Cleveland for a HUGE discount, probably come off the bench....and have 12 years of good will with the team that made him a household name go down the drain....

And for what?

To lose in the Finals to the superior West...AGAIN?

Hey it might be possible, Wade isn't Timmy or Dirk. He could very well leave(after giving a heartfelt speech)

And thus Pat Riley goes back to the Python infested swamps of Florida.

Portland going into full Rebuild 3.0 You Can(Not) Win A Chip it seems.

You kidding? Randle would be more than worth it. Shit, I'd give up Randle + 2 lottery protected first round picks (or Randle + this year's pick + 2nd round pick next season) in a hurry.

true DMC is worth so much but you gotta take into account that the kings are in complete chaos and are definitely desperate for a trade wheras the lakers arent "obliged" to do much. they can move on and be fine with building around #2 pick

id personally give up clarkson over randle if thats an option. that frontcourt would be tough

No Lillard and I wonder if Portland could be the worst in the NBA tbh.

I hated Portland when Brandon Roy was on that team, but I never in particular hated Roy at all. Guy could have been a HOF tier player imo. His ceiling kept getting higher before he got hurt.
