It was a heist for sure. DeRozan was overrated and never great defensively. However, the Raps aren't getting KD without giving up Barnes + one of Siakam/OG/FVV.

Good thing I didn't bet Detroit today haha.

Thanks. Asking because I know it was a doubleheader yesterday and thought maybe would have been different based on the circumstances. Though if someone does go on the IL, they could call him back up no problem. -

Since Maximo Castillo was sent down to the minors yesterday before Game 2, does he have to stay down in the minors for a certain amount of days before getting called up again? -
The extra revenue from jersey sales, ticket sales, and TV ratings, alongside with attracting other potential top talent, there are more advantages for having Durant in a Raptors uniform than disadvantages.
-
Meh, but even with the Raptors current roster, do you expect them to win a Championship? The East is still wide open. Boston, Miami and Milwaukee are the top teams still, but add Durant to a Raptors roster and its a toss-up in a 7 game series against any of those teams. I'm also sure the Raptors would add if Durant was brought in.
-
If anyone is willing to sell a bobblehead from today let me know. Will pay fair value!

If you have Durant, you really don't need Siakam. PG VanVleet SG Trent Jr. SF Anunoby PF Durant C Boucher or a FA center Bench: PF/C Boucher or FA SF Porter Jr. F Young F Achiuwa G Brooks Free agent/trade Free agent/trade IMO if that Raptors team is healthy, definitely more of an NBA Champion caliber contender than with Siakam and Barnes.

Curious question, if you get tickets for tomorrow, are they good for the second game as well? Like as traditional doubleheaders down in the States?
-
I love Barnes as well, though I would imagine any trade for KD has to include him. Barnes will be a solid player moving forward no doubt, though very small chance he becomes a superstar who could carry a team. I agree on Siakam as well. Sell high after he had a rebound season and free up some money from his contract as well. Last year at this time his contract was looking like a disaster. If Durant comes in, no need for Siakam anyways.
-
He played 55 games last season. If you can load management with him like the Raps did with KL, and ride him hard in the Playoffs, don't see that being an issue. Play him 60-65 games, sit him back-to-backs or against teams that really suck. I'll take that gamble.
-
Yeah but at 50M-60M AAV? haha
-
I don't care about Barnes. You would definitely have to trade him in the deal. I prefer trading Siakam over OG and VanVleet obviously. So it depends on who that second piece is with Barnes.
-
You aren't going to win a championship with Barnes and Siakam haha. Unless the Raps add another elite player or both Barnes/OG turn into Top 5-10 talents. If the Raps get a chance at KD, do it! Even from a financial standpoint, the money, jersey sales, hype he would bring to the Raptors. Definitely worth it from a roster perspective and business perspective as well.

An important question: how long can Ohtani be a two-way player for and perform at a solid-elite level for both? Does he give up pitching half way through his contract lets say if he suffers a major injury and just focusing on being a DH? As a front office, you would want to make sure if you're handing Ohtani a $500 million contract that he hits and pitches for majority of that contract. If he isn't pitching like an ace or No. 2-3 starter in his later years, that contract could be a disaster.

I was a frustrated Archer owner as well. Cut ties with him because he wasn't providing solid ratios and never qualifying for Wins. I also had Quintana earlier on and wish I cut ties with Archer before I did Quintana, regretting that one now. -
Raptors sign Chris Boucher to three-year, $35.25M extension. Nice to lock him up for another three more years. I think he has more upside for sure and was solid in the Playoffs. If he can take the next step and average 15PPG with 7-8 RBP, that would be sweet.
-
Also, Deandre Ayton and Rudy Gobert could be traded. One of them would be great fits on the Raptors as well. This NBA offseason will be fun for sure!
-
Barnes for sure + I'm assuming one of OG, Siakam or VanVleet + a bunch of draft picks I would imagine.
-
Inflation haha

A lot of people thought Leonard was going to be a drama queen, refuse to play his best, or be a cancer in the locker room, though quite the opposite. Durant makes the Raptors contenders for the next 2 to 3 years for another NBA Championship. He's one of the top 5 players in the league. Would love to see the Raptors acquire him! Masai isn't afraid of making big bold deals. He did it with Leonard, I would love to see him do it with Durant.

I could name a couple of guys I would swap Archer for. Even relievers with SP eligibility. -
Wasn't one of his favourite players growing up Vince Carter?
