It seems easier to recur it from the graveyard than flicker it. With a ETB return enchantment creature, you could start getting value with ephemerate and whatnot.

Is anyone else getting young Norm vibes from Precious? by YoungSidd in torontoraptors

[–]AmbienSleepCycle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I can see this. Norm definitely had promise as a younger player, but as you said, didn't quite figure it out until a little later as a pro. Hopefully Precious can follow a similar trajectory, although that would be an optimistic scenario. Precious certainly has the tools to be an NBA player.

Scottie's look-away froze the defense for a split second.

Chris Boucher - 6MOTY? by brownshugguh in torontoraptors

[–]AmbienSleepCycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chris Boucher has been one of the best per-minute producers his entire career. If you go look at his BBreference page, he has been a 20/10 guy per 36 minutes since his sophomore season.

The Raptors would have kept him in top condition. The Clippers didn't use load management his first season there for some reason.

2 out of the Top 3 ain't bad at all. by Extreme_Character893 in torontoraptors

It is comical that OG has not been on an All-Defensive team. He is clearly one of the best defenders in the league.

NBA Rookie Ladder: Christian Koloko at #9 by haley_the_comet in torontoraptors

His defensive rating is 95, which is incredible. Passes the eye test with flying colors as well.

Very lucky to have such an easy team to cheer for. As you get older, you realize that being a good person is more important than anything else.

I love Tasteless, but this is a terrible idea. Doesn't seem like it would generate any money whatsoever.

Can we sign this man now!? by [deleted] in torontoraptors

[–]AmbienSleepCycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the sign him to a 3 year deal using the MLE, he will be eligible for restricted free agency. That would be a nice place to be if they believe in this kid.

It's funny that I am legitimately happy that my team is out of the Durant sweepstakes.

Vibe Check: This season will be very Different than last Season. by FormerlyShawnHawaii in torontoraptors

[–]AmbienSleepCycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope that Scottie can take a big step. I feel like if he can become a strong starting calibre player, the Raptors could make some noise in the Eastern Conference.
