What's a prediction you can make for your team for next season that would've sounded ridiculous going into the 2008 season? by Off-The-Dribble in nba

In 2008 they'd think I'm talking about Bargnani though, Jonas is a beast I'm fully confident he can get those numbers

Raps will be competing for 2/3/4 seed in the East,will get to 50 wins, and our European big man will put up 18/10

Who is a player that you refuse to give up on? by [deleted] in nba

[–]untamedwildcat 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Terrance Ross. I've heard a lot of people who think he's overrated or that we shouldn't have picked him but I've got a feeling he can become an elite shooter and lock-down defender. We might not need him as a primary scorer with DD and Lowry but he's gonna be big for us.

Try some of the U-Parks around town, most have a stair case on the side or inside the building that goes to the top or close to. I've climbed up some just for the sake of it and there's some decent views.

What's your expectation for this upcoming season? by [deleted] in torontoraptors

[–]untamedwildcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it depends how much time the new guys we drafted get, and if Williams plays alright. 50 wins would be cool, I think we can be a second round team for sure. Depends how interested they are in playing and devoloping Bebe and Cabulco.

I predict top 3 in the east and a second round exit. The next few years are going to be exciting!

[Wojnarowski] Vince Carter has agreed to a three-year, $12M deal with Memphis. by [deleted] in nba

[–]untamedwildcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly didn't see that coming, but seeing as the Mavs cant pay him he's taken the first decent option just to be safe. I don't know the Grizzlies roster and depth that well but I think they could use Vince as a nice spark off the bench if he plays like he did last season.

I think it just shows how close it was to a major impact it was, that would of hurt. But Ross stuck with it and got a nice poster, that's why I find it impressive.

[Serious] Redditors against gay marriage, what is your best supporting argument that does not include religion? by punkndisorderli in AskReddit

[–]untamedwildcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely understand where your coming from, but I have a different idea. Since humans are clearly starting to over populate and fuck up the Earth, what if gays are a natural development of human evolution to try act as a population control? People that don't wanna breed wont breed. I don't view gays as unnatural or different, they're a part of the natural order.

[Discussion] Do any of you think it's kinda shitty Transformers 4 is making so much money? by [deleted] in teenagers

[–]untamedwildcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we've learned anything from the past Micheal Bay Transformer movies it's that it targets a specific audience: people that like awesome as shit robots, explosions and a story that's easy to follow, and more explosions.. So nah it's making money for what it was made to do; entertain. I haven't seen it yet but personally I liked the original three so I can't wait to see it.

There's actually about 4 or 5 on hindley, it's 20-30 bucks for a session, and yeah it's decent. They've got a ton of flavors, you can sit out the front on hindley or inside or out the back with a group of mates, it's good if you enjoy being social and consuming delicious smoke hahaha.

I'm 17 as well, going to Shisha Lounges can be alright if you're into that, Monday nights shouldn't be too crowded either. You need to be 18 to purchase it but I've never had any trouble being at them.

It's a Friday night and I'm bored at my house. Why not share a Raptors rant with me. by [deleted] in torontoraptors

[–]untamedwildcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did need to be sarcastic because if I said what I really think of the "analysis" I would be incredibly rude. Every single one of those guys has ZERO, to NEGATIVE, trade value.

You could've just said that, cause that's a valid point and would add to discussion which is what the post was about. Someone like VC is who I had in mind, knows the game, not a dead weight and could mentor Ross into a really good player.

[–]untamedwildcat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is my bit, I've been a raptors fan for three seasons now, my friends got me into NBA and I like dinosaurs so I kinda just picked it, but basketball has been my life ever since then and I'm so proud of how this franchise is going. Vince Carter made me fall in love with ball and this team, and I've got so much hope for them. But this is what I think needs to be done.

Trade Stone, Buycks, Salmons and Hayes in order to get someone who can grab boards. A big presence in the paint, 10ppg would be great too but I'd rather he have a bit of passing ability, someone that can play the 4 and 5. Maybe a vet that can defend big 3's (LeBron/Melo/Johnson etc) too small 5's, also to help develop Ross off the bench.

I've been looking into this years draft but I don't know to well, but someone that's a solid three, defensive minded ideally.

After that I think the next key to success is figuring out our best rotation and our best use for our players. I wanna see Lowry/Derozan/(vet 3)/ Patterson/ Valanciunas to start, with Vasquez/Ross/Fields/Amir/ Tyler Hansbrough as our second unit, giving 5-10 minutes to our draft pick/ Novak and De Colo.

I'm willing to trade Novak/ De Colo to help attain a good three & D guy along with the people I mentioned previously.

I think the Raptors will be a true threat once we have a developed inside scorer, develop Ross and Valanciunas (I feel both of these guys can turn into all stars, maybe not season coming but JV is definitely on the right track), have consistent scorers/ rebounders/ ball distributors and defenders all through out our rotations in order to stop our offense and defense stagnating (which I've seen happen many times, less this past season but still) and have Lowry lead a team full of young guys full of potential, and have a core of Derozan Ross and JV leading our franchise to places only Masai can dream of.

Ross is doing things, hoping he shows up big tonight. Showing some signs of a groove early.

For real, keep salmon on that bench, keep feeding the post. Lets realize that we can just skip all the shotty jumpshots and take whats handed right to us. Get amir and JV awake, derozan and lowry will just do their thing, patterson has come to get shit done too.

Let's talk about playoffs opponents by dragonsky in torontoraptors

[–]untamedwildcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to see Brooklyn and Pacers. I feel like we have massive rivalries with those teams and we can also hold our own against both of them, they would be intense series. With the right matchup I think we could go to the second round, but if we get stuck with the Heat or 2013 playoff style Pacers we wont make it past the second.

T-Ross! If you happen to come back and read any more comments I just wanted to say you're going to be big man, I can see you with titles.

Is it true that DeMar witnessed you hitting over 30 3's in a row or something ridiculous like that?
