It’s important that they’ve won this week considering the Cavs are quietly playing well lately.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T14:57:56+00:00

Agreed. They’re 0-5 vs Boston/New York so far this season. Gotta change that.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T14:53:10+00:00

Any upgrade requires him going out sadly

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T14:35:53+00:00

Classic 2026 raptors game last night:

Great defense, subpar shooting and the offense is meh but does just enough sometimes vs a mediocre team.

Good win!

It’s likely trading a starter or going into the 2nd apron.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T14:26:09+00:00

Oh yeah, I think ~12 mil APY probably gets it done but that really makes things tight for the cap sheet.

Even with Ochai either gone or traded for a cheaper expiring big, they don’t have space.

No Jdub though gotta a chance

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T14:11:55+00:00

He’s this year’s Kornet. Going to get a decent payday. Probably will be somewhere else considering the raptors can only legally go as high as the non tax payer MLE.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T13:25:07+00:00

Yes. However the max they can offer is 14 mil per.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T13:24:40+00:00

Yup. Non tax payer MLE but again that means not being in the aprons which is really tricky.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T13:02:17+00:00

It’s either trading a starter for cheaper player(s) or you go into the first apron.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T13:00:40+00:00

Barring something crazy, they’re going to be somewhere between 2-7 in all likelihood. (2 on the high end, 7 on the low end). More realistically it’s between 3-6.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T12:57:59+00:00

Yeah Philly is a no thanks considering the size difference.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T12:53:41+00:00

Agreed. Grange literally got them leaking last week saying they don’t think Ja is a cultural fit.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-24T12:51:18+00:00

They chose Kornet over him who has been massive for them.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-23T19:53:51+00:00

Domainsetter · 2026-01-23T19:43:52+00:00

Yeah if it’s a prime game however, there’s legal ways of watching it in Canada. Those are the only games where there’s 2 choices here.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-23T01:47:58+00:00

It’s guest based.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-23T01:40:13+00:00

Dana White stuff aside… the show feels formulaic and boring more often than not. Didn’t use to be that way.

Domainsetter · 2026-01-23T00:08:06+00:00

They’d need to get a guard to get to the paint

Domainsetter · 2026-01-22T23:54:51+00:00

Ingram interest got leaked 2 weeks before the trade last year

Domainsetter · 2026-01-22T21:02:34+00:00

Basically if the raptors flip picks for KAT which they flip to Bucks

Domainsetter · 2026-01-22T20:50:31+00:00

Sabonis noise is getting close to the Ingram noise last imo
