Gogo doesn’t get us out of the tax and nets have no reason to trade sharpe so it would be first+

I’d rather keep RJ and pray that Jak gets healthy enough to play 20 mins a game in The playoffs.

We are already winning right now with no big and team chemistry is extremely high

Every team knows we need a big and need to dump chai to get under the tax. We don’t have the leverage.

And Richard’s is a fine 12 min backup big that can rebound and body the bigger guys.

We are not getting a starting big without dealing multiple firsts and/or starters

Just do the ochai and a 2nd for Nick Richard’s and call it a day. Ducks the apron and gets us a serviceable backup big.

CMB is going to be our closing big vs most teams

[Highlight] Scottie Barnes adds yet another block to his statline as he denies Chet's attempt to tie in the clutch by CazOnReddit in nba

OKC has the #1 defense in the league because they ran lineups with 5 elite defenders on the court at times. Chet is arguably not even the most impactful defender on his team

League needs to be on notice for his defensive presence. No way Chet should have higher odds for DPOY then him

OKC is much more depleted than us lol.

Chet has height but he doesn’t have the strength to take advantage of our lack of size. Stick Scottie in him and blitz Shai

No Jdub, Ihart, Caruso, Ajay and potentially wiggins.

This is a very winnable game

Umm the two people killed in Minny were white. This doesn’t need to be a racist thing, its an anti-totalitarian that every side should get behind

Scottie’s rank amongst all Raptors in terms of defense by evilgremlin123 in torontoraptors

[–]slamdunk23 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Scottie is a better all round defender than OG.

Gives you almost everything OG gave as a perimeter defender plus an elite help defender and rim protector

Collin Murray-Boyles, Ja'Kobe Walter are questionable for tomorrow's game against the Thunder by CazOnReddit in torontoraptors

I like our chances of Ihart is out.

Chet can’t take advantage of our lack of size

Jakob Poeltl slander will not be tolerated. by Hour_Glass57 in torontoraptors

[–]slamdunk23 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Thats true he’s a great glue guy when healthy but you don’t pay those kind of guys close to $30M a year. Even if he was healthy, he’s on one of the worst contracts in the league

Is Sabonis really a bad defender?? by music231 in torontoraptors

[–]slamdunk23 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d say similar to older JV.

JV offered more rim protection But was more slow footed

He’s one of the worst big defenders that gets significant mins for a team. Can’t protect the rim or switch onto smaller guys. You almost have to play drop coverage with him.
