And do they not get even bigger audiences when they're competing?
The way the raptors' structured their contracts they wont have a choice but to rebuild in 2 years unless OG and Siakam become stars.
but you keep comparing it to the jays when we actually saw an MLSE owned team completely rebuild. If they choose to treadmill it will be Masai's fault not the ownership's.
Masai set it up so if kawhi re-signs, they go for a championship and if he leaves, Lowry, ibaka, and gasol are all expiring and they can rebuild. I'm not worried about the future of this team at all.
He had a few good games in the Wizards series according to boxscores and from memory I though he was fine. He played great in both of the Cleveland sweeps and shot the ball well.
Even going further back when he shot horrible he still gave good defense, rebounding, and playmaking unlike Derozan who had to be benched in 4th quarter.

Damn I can't believe Lowry is so disrespected. He has been good the last 2 years in the playoffs but still gets labeled as a choker even by Raptors fans.
Derozan has really dragged his rep down .
