As a Raptors fan, I totally agree with you. Still, the Raptors DESPERATELY need a true center. The only mistake I think Masai made was not signing Serge Ibaka. Other than that, I trust whatever he is doing. Sometimes, you have to take a step back if you want to take two steps forward.

In hindsight, you can say not signing Serge was a mistake but at the time, the goal was Giannis. If Giannis hadn’t signed the super max, would we still consider not signing Serge a mistake if it still meant a shot at Giannis? I don’t think we would.

Once we get a better center we will be a much improved team. Ibaka and Gasol help led us to a 0.736 winning percentage last year, but as soon as they left and we went to small ball we went to 0.383. We keep running small ball line ups and its not working, need to change up the strategy for next season.

Ray here's the solution: the 2 midgets points guards need to comprise. One starts and the other comes off the bench. Now, the other day a person said that there're some interesting center players in Euro League. Masia should take a look at those players: Georgios Papagiannis 7'3" 242lbs 23yrs Antonio Vrankovic 7'0" 242lbs 24yrs Olek Balcerowski 7'1" 242lbs 23yrs Ondřej Balvín 7'1" 242lbs 28yrs Khalifa Diop 6'11" 241lbs 19yrs ps: that's part of my solution Ray.....

They've had the luxury of depth coming off the bench for many seasons now - their G League program was the tops, and that's how Fred, Pascal, and a number of others got their start in the league. This season it has not benefitted them to pull some of their G Leaguers up, like Watson, or Stanley, or Flynn, because the chemistry and confidence isn't there yet. And to be competing with other teams without a legitimate center on the court is absurd. That's why Siakam is getting so frustrated playing at the 5 spot, because he's better served on the wings, making the breakaway play off the rebound for quick scoring points, not being stuck competing for the ball under the rim against a guy that's got 60 pounds on him and is 4 inches taller. Even if they did go on a tear and started winning every game to win the season, there's no way they're winning seven game series against teams with legit big men and a lineup of three point shooters. I would prefer to see them get a top pick from the draft this season, and then sign a decent center.

Tanking is not in our nature, our ethic is to try to compete every night... even if Kyle retires as a player I see him coming back after in a coach or player development role so even if he misses another ring as a player he would still get one regardless... gambling on the draft is rarely a winner... we are fighting so many demons just now... Pascal list 15lbs during his layoff, the refs are against us every night [which means the league executives cannot be trusted to have an honest draft lottery , conspiracy anyone? Lol], We need to get everybody back in game shape and gelling, hopefully we can get a chance to have a few practices and drills and get some couch time to get our heads in the right space.

we’re not tanking tho, ppl dont kno how to use that word. We don’t lose on purpose, we acc try winning but we lose so much that it looks like we’re fucking tanking and then these fans give up on them and say “tank”.. We need to fix this small ball bullshit and get holmes or whiteside plus a good draft pick (top 8) we’ll be so much more improved. We should also get rid of baynes and KL, we would have so much cap left to sign someone big.. someone that will lead us to a deep run in the playoffs - thinking kawhi (who knows he might leave) or beal

anyone notice how the offence stalls when fred has the ball, especially in the first half against detroit. he keeps ball hogging and not giving anyone touches. i wouldve liked to see gtj have more touches. he had 15 on his limited touches, couldve had more! fred keeps going to the paint unsuccessfully or holding it til the end of possession and gets up a bad shot. also kept shooting threes against portland so his 3 point record wouldnt break and shot terrible. those possessions couldve been used better, the ball movement stops, another reason why our offence has droughts throughout the season, well partially. and this is nothing new I've seen this happening since the boston series.he plays hero ball sometimes, plays like a 2 guard but his height deters him from finishing at the rim, if he could playmake better like a pg and make his teammates better when he isnt shooting well we'd get the ball moving better and MAYBE had a better outcome
@BrokeredHeart
@BrokeredHeart 3 жыл бұрын
When his 3 point shots don't go, that's when he starts crashing the paint. And you're right - he gets blinders on to his teammates where he could potentially kick the ball back out since he's dragging at least 2 defenders to him. Instead he's stuck trying to chuck the ball at the rim trying to draw a foul, but the guys defending him are smart to it, so they stay upright and don't reach down anymore. He also hasn't fully recovered from covid, in my opinion. He's leaving his shots short, meaning the conditioning isn't there yet because he's not getting the lift he used to. He must be experiencing some fatigue and he can't quite make the shots he normally makes. In which case, he should be looking to facilitate and move the ball around to his teammates. Enough with the iso and hero ball - they play much better when that ball is zipping around the court for the extra pass.

I think if we’re to keep this up, we end w picks ranging from 4-7, not high on us getting a 1-3 pick, it just doesnt sound realistic as its like a 9% chance but this draft class is heavily stacked so im not mad.

@@raytalkshoop2686 Masai's goal had always been to show the league that the Raptors are not another Knicks or Sacramento. Every time he does things to improve the Raptors and keeps them as competitive as possible he is marketing the Raptors to the rest of the league in hope of drawing the attention of big names like Kawhi for example. By keeping a solid supporting cast on the roster, all he needs is a superstar to see that and realize that they can be the man in Toronto and that he'll have all the help he needs to make deep playoff pushes.

I think hes setting the Raptors up to grow in to a super sound and solid unit again and then hes gonna try pull the trigger on a big name or two in the next few years when he feels the Raptors are ready. I personally think this is going to happen as early as next season, having kyle agree to a sign and trade or something and maybe get a solid starting center so that he can draw interest on another superstar forward.
