Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted February 17, 2021 Posted February 17, 2021 This game's been great, Raps in control.
Dick_Pole Old-Timey Member Posted February 19, 2021 Posted February 19, 2021 Please Masai, do not cave and trade Powell in any Drummond deal. The Raptors are better off going small if these past two games are any indication.

The Raptors are better off going small if these past two games are any indication. Powell has been fantastic this year. It's really a shame that if we want to keep him, we'll end up with about 80% of our payroll locked up in FVV, OG, Powell and Siakam - leaving us no room for any impact player (either at C or SG). I have grown to love all 4 of those players and while I think we can win a lot of game with that core, I don't think that core wins playoff rounds and thus I think ultimately, something will have to give.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted February 23, 2021 Posted February 23, 2021 Damn, Raps beat the 76'ers yesterday? Wow!
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted February 24, 2021 Posted February 24, 2021 Well ... that's a rough start!
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 That starting lineup for Team Lebron is scary as hell. Antetokounmpo, Curry, Doncic, Lebron, Jokic
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 11, 2021 Posted March 11, 2021 JV is in beast mode tonight!
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Embarrassing, 9 in a row. How's the draft
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Embarrassing, 9 in a row. That COVID hit absolutely annihilated us. We were playing so well when it happened too.
Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted March 23, 2021 Posted March 23, 2021 Embarrassing, 9 in a row. Better than Houston losing 20 in a row I guess? What is the consensus on the draft? I mean Cade Cunningham looked like s*** in the 2 games I saw and he's projected 1st overall. Kia Jones is projected to Toronto right now and he looked like balls in the tournament too.

I have zero clue, wrong guy to ask...
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 OG's strength on the defensive end is really impressive. Jokic basically just bounced right off him.
Spanky99 Old-Timey Member Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 OG's strength on the defensive end is really impressive. Jokic basically just bounced right off him. You think Lowry and Powell have played their last game as a Raptor?
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 You think Lowry and Powell have played their last game as a Raptor? I have no idea. I actually think the Raps can still sneak into the playoffs, but I don't know if that's best for the future. I don't think they'll trade either unless the return is well worth it. I could see Powell being traded and Kyle staying.
Brownie19 Old-Timey Member Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Got Gary Trent Jr. for Powell. Apparently that's a decent move.
Krylian Old-Timey Member Posted March 25, 2021 Posted March 25, 2021 Mistake not moving Lowry I think. He'll walk for nothing and sign with a contender.
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted March 26, 2021 Posted March 26, 2021 Got Gary Trent Jr. for Powell. Apparently that's a decent move. Trent is supposed to be an elite perimeter defender and a decent scorer (just not as good off the bounce). We've been getting killed on the perimeter with 3s. This could be an interesting trade, where it helps us both this year and over the summer/next year in cap space.

Yeah - I'm good with getting Trent. We'll have to pay him this year, but he's essentially a much younger version of Norm, probably with better defense and less offensive versatility. Sad to see Norm go. It's been amazing watching him develop into a true efficient, offensive weapon. May have to root for the Trail Blazers in the west now.

BlueRocky Old-Timey Member Posted March 31, 2021 Posted March 31, 2021 I always liked Norm and wish him the best.
Laika Community Moderator Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 https://www.theplayerstribune.com/posts/the-north-norman-powell-toronto-raptors-basketball-nba I cried
Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted April 1, 2021 Posted April 1, 2021 The Raps are doing a masterful job at tanking. Keep the game close, but eek out the loss.

Abomination Old-Timey Member Posted April 2, 2021 Posted April 2, 2021 What team is this? lol One that's facing a bottom 5 G-League team.
