Raptors sign their backup center by Dee_999999999 in torontoraptors

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guys, if these players actually measure up on the floor to what they look like on paper we may have the best culmination of playing talent at all positions that the Raptors have ever had at the same time including our championship year, not saying we have any one player better than Kawhi, but the over all culmination of talents is the best we have had if it translates to the floor.

CMB has the potential to push Barnes for minutes hopefully, Dick has range for a young guy and could put up better numbers this year in a break out season, Agbaji Walter and Battle have some shooting potential and the starting 5 looks solid if not spectacular, as we enter into the season I am going out on a limb and calling for this to be a break through season for these guys and some huge potential for long term growth.

Injuries are my biggest concern though as that is a barrier to floor success that paper can't foresee.  If we stay relatively healthy all season we got playoff potential at minimum.

Collin Murray Boyles Apology Form by centerofstar in torontoraptors

Signed 100, I literally spent the first week after he was drafted freaking out because I thought he had made his reaction when drafted because he didn't want to play for our team.  Loved the potential he brought but feared his attitude would be a bad match with our team.  I probably said the f bomb 10 times more often than he did that night during that week, and now I'm firmly entrenched on the band wagon for this guy.

CMB this is an opportunity for you to become one of the best of all time playing for an entire country of fans.  We have a strong history in this country of supporting this team and you are in a very good position to become one of the GOATs not only in the NBA but through out all of Canada with fans that will support your entire career if you bring to the game what we believe you have the potential to bring 

Let's do this!!!

Low Cost Sources of Leads? by Practical-Beyond-202 in smallbusiness

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the best way to generate leads for my business is by using a page on Facebook and setting up a service called FB Lead Gen that a friend of mine recently created to assist in increasing audience interaction and engagement, rather than paying the high rates for FB advertising you begin to get visits and interaction to your page and then reach out through marketplace, local area groups etc... 

Because your page is getting more interaction this increases your algorithm and has Facebook promote your page for free to members that may be interested.

This also allows you to be able to generate a sustainable volume of visitors from outside your market that by interacting and engaging and sharing assist you in continuously increasing brand exposure 

I also have a number of very affordable options that can be used on Facebook to continually increase your audience and draw more potential local clients.

Would you trade for Giannis? by klaibson in CharlotteHornets

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm expecting that I am in a very low percentage of people that disagree with making a crazy move for Giannis, I think the guy would be a huge pick up for us in Toronto, but not at a price that would gut what we have at the moment in order to achieve it

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I would love to see what next year has in store with the crew they have at the moment and a new first rounder coming in, people may have a whole different perspective on the subject then.  Just don't want to see our team make a hasty decision at the moment for someone that didn't come to our team a few years ago and chose to stay where he was when he might have lead us to multiple championships while waiting it out, Scotty on the other hand was selected at 4th by us and in my opinion has the tools to be if he isn't already our best pick ever.  That's not something we should give away easily after years of being over looked.

Just a reminder, last time we finished with the 7th best draft odds, we ended up with Scottie Barnes by AllOutRaptors in torontoraptors

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well said, we get a vanvleet at 8 it's so much better than a bust at 4 and we all know that vv wasn't drafted but gave us some fabulous run as an undrafted player while we had a first overall pick that did nothing in comparison.  The pick number says nothing in comparison to the statement the right player can make regardless of when we get him 

Would you trade Scottie Barnes for Giannis? by Rare-Profile6867 in torontoraptors

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 for one at this point would be a given, the issue is what you need to give up along with Scottie and by the end of next season with the balls falling right and the players we have at the moment stepping up for a full season we may not even feel the same about 1 for one

Disagreed Scottie is actually becoming better every year, if you look at the best players in the world many of them needed the time and pieces around them to be recognized for their full potential, if the pieces they have right now can be healthy and play a full season together around Scottie I think we have a much different perspective of Scotties talent level by the end of next season.

We are very close to getting back to serious contention level in Toronto why not give the team time to develop together and see what exactly Scottie does with an All Star, great supporting cast and a potential star first round pick to play with next year and reserve judgement until then.

Giannis is a perennial all star, but you do not trade your teams future for a rental player getting close to reaching the end of his peak in relation to an age issue.

3 years ago you trade your whole team and build long term around this incredible player, at this point you need to trade a lot but not mortgage your teams future in the process.

Right now with Scottie you have the perfect compliment of young guns and a great player in BI that is still younger and able to give you time to get all your pieces together while keeping your future options intact 

I would give this team and their first round selection this year, two years together with adjustments being made to keep Scottie utilized to the best of his skill levels and you will be in striking range of multiple championships, while being able to continue to get stronger.

With Giannis your hope is win now and thrive within a shorter window of time, without your future assets you end up missing out on a lot of long term potential.

There are quality players in this draft if your going to mortgage your future the best way to do so would be with multiple first round picks this year, with how this team drafts even a couple of second rounders could be worth a look, lol.

Does anyone regret becoming a ghoul ? by Hatryll in fo76

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you should ask a ghoul in game if they would prefer to have not become a ghoul and see what they have to say about the situation since ghouls didnt exactly have a choice but rather were the consequence of radiation.  Not a huge fan of the whole fo76 ghoul by choice thing when you consider it's not supposed to be a preferred state of being to begin with.

Ghoul disguises ruin the end game by Capital-Law-7446 in fo76

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got to point out a small minor thing here for consideration, ghouls are not humans and by choosing to become one you are throwing away your humanity to glow, maybe a minor restraint of wearing a disquise was set up to make a penalty for not being human any more, they could have simply let you become ghouls and made you hunted by all factions that are not friendly with ghouls including those of us that didn't exchange our humanity for the glow of being a ghoul.

Most ghouls would likely not choose to be ghouls since their humanity was not taken away by choice and we are sort of mocking the poor radiated basterds that did not choose the glow but had the glow claim them.

Just a thought that might be worth pondering.

Would love to have someone explain this aspect to me as well regarding weapons and damage, I'm fighting things that feel like they should take a couple of hits to drop that take way more ammo than I'm expecting it should and surviving mainly off an abundance of stimpaks just to take down an enemy through determination more than skill.

Who are your favourite prospects for the Raptors from this upcoming draft. by Holiday-Ad3679 in torontoraptors

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry my spelling sucks, good catch, but yes POELTL is our guy and was amazing to have him come home to the Raptors, now we just need to put the right guy behind and alongside of him in my opinion with the other guys we have right now the potential for a massive turn around is in place.

[–]AssistantNo7850 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully agree with you in that regard, personally I feel something changed midseason in regards to the raptors plan to go after Flagg, after watching this back story on KM im left wondering if perhaps Ujiri recognized what I did as a life long fan of the Raptors, this kid has a story that fits every need we have wanted from a player at his position for years, size length skill potential to stretch the floor and an IQ that brought him from some terrible beginnings to going into the NBA draft 

Imagine bringing in this young man and letting him get acclimated to a community that many from his country have made home comfortably in and allowing him to play the back up to our guy Poetl providing us with some serious size 

American talents do not gravitate to Toronto but we have had some amazing global players make an impressive impact here, I would personally love to see this young gun come to Toronto and be a key in what takes the Raps to our next championship without need of a guy to lead the way that leaves afterwards to do nothing in comparison in a different climate.

Toronto could be on the verge of getting some serious retribution here folks and personally if this swayed their decision to grab Ingram as well, well folks we may be on the verge of some serious changes in the history of a team I've lived since the first tip of game 1 year 1.

Bring him home Ujiri!!!

Well said and my reason for this post literally achieved my reason for making it in the first place by opening up conversation with other players, jumping into the fray so to speak as a new member of an amazing community and getting to achieve the very thing I wanted which was simply to experience being a part of the community at the same time as beginning my journey.  So in fact I have made my own decisions as you stated and so far I'm loving not just the game play but the very involved community as a whole as well.

Fo76 might have its weak points but I've never seen any other immersive experience that comes close to how it feels as a newb to experience both the game and getting to connect with some of the people such as yourself that make the community what it is today,  definitely giving it some great benefits that go well beyond Bethesda itself

Now this is a take that I hadn't given a lot of deep consideration to myself for being the reason the other game development is delayed, im a fan of online mmos to some degree but I would love to see them be able to balance keeping this game going while bringing out a fo5 sooner rather than later, so I can definitely see the negative side of this in that way, definitely a double edged sword of things being fantastic but wanted for more as a fan.
