Will make my pick shortly. Just saw this now. -
LINE definitely has the best emojis. WeChat has good emojis as well. WhatsApp could step up their game in that department. WhatsApp is banned in China, so thats why they use WeChat instead. Ask anyone who is Chinese and they have WeChat. It's extremely popular over there and they use it for everything else like I mentioned. WhatsApp is more used internationally however, though I still think WeChat is actually better and offers more features.

You still need to get someones number to add them to WhatsApp I believe. Other apps like WeChat or LINE are very popular in Asia and you don't need someones phone number. Only need their username or you can add a friend by scanning a generated barcode. WeChat is probably way ahead of WhatsApp. In China, people use WeChat for everything, such as ordering food at restaurants and even paying for everything at stores, bars, restaurants etc. Don't think we have that with WhatsApp yet.

Looks like my Zach Davies offer is still the best one...
-
I'll also cut Casey Meisner. So that is a total of 4 cuts from me.
-
I'll also cut Andrew Pullin from my farm system since he retired back in 2018.

I'll drop Luis Ortiz because he sucks -
I don't think the Raptors want to throw in the towel until 2021, because then no top free agent will want to sign here. Still need to show they have a solid team that a player like Giannis could win with.

Do you guys talk trade in fantasy baseball as well?

How many prospects are we allowed to keep in this league? -
I'll cut Christian Binford and Miguel Amonte
-
In a dynasty league, who would you take moving forward - Justin Upton or Joey Votto?
-
I have Raptors season tickets. Far from a casual.
-
Can even use load management with Wall (don't play him back-to-back games) and limit his minutes. Raps could afford to do that with FVV in the fold. If John Wall is healthy, he's an elite player. Getting Beal is the main piece though so anything extra you get out of Wall, consider that a huge bonus. And if these trades would still allow the Raps to make a run at Giannis in two years, then I'm ok with it.
-
I agree, Raps need to do something and add another solid/elite player. I know people hate Westbrook, but he is one of the superstar's available and his value has likely taken a hit around the league anyways. OKC is rebuilding and will want to clear his contract. Westbrook probably now even has a bigger chip on his shoulder and would be motivated to show everyone in the NBA that he could lead a team to a championship. Raptors would be a great fit for him since he would have the pieces around him already and playing in the East as we all know is an easier path to the NBA Finals. Would suck to trade Lowry though, but his contract is expiring after this year and it's not a guarantee he re-signs with Toronto again. I would rather target just Bradley Beal and not John Wall. Devin Booker would be an interesting option as well.
-
Some still do.
-
There is some potential growth with players like OG and Siakam will definitely get better. FVV could take another step forward and we've seen Powell be useful. No need to knock it all down, especially after winning a championship. If OG could take a really big step forward this year and get a lot out of him, Raptors could still be a Top 2-3 team. Masai still needs to add another solid player though to this roster though which I'm sure he'll do.
-
Not sure if the reports are true, but OKC offered the Raptors both Paul George and Russell Westbrook if Masai was willing to build a deal around Siakam. Possibly could have lead Kawhi to re-sign back in Toronto. Doubt it would have happened since the Raps didn't have the picks like the Clippers to pull of that type of deal but that's interesting. Westbrook could be on the Raptors radar possibly, if those reports were true.
-
Masai I'm sure has a Plan B. He shocked us all last year pulling off the Demar trade, so wouldn't surprise me if he has something else up his sleeve. He's not staying in Toronto to rebuild, he wants to win. Giannis in 2021 hopefully!
-
If they had enough room to sign Kawhi to a max contract, I think it should be around $30 million left. Could be wrong though.
-
How about Gallinari?
-
Bradley Beal would be nice, but doubt that happens.
-
Devin Booker would be a nice add from Phoenix if the Raptors could somehow pull off a trade for him. It would be tough though. If OKC is rebuilding, I would go after newly acquired Danilo Gallinari from them. Gives the Raps a SF that could shoot the 3 and he wouldn't cost much in terms of trade I would imagine. Two free agents with some upside Raps should target: Jabari Parker and Kelly Oubre Jr. Parker was the former No. 2 pick back in 2014 and has an injury history. Raps should offer him a 1-2 year contract and after keeping Kawhi healthy all season with load management and their medical staff, Toronto could be a nice fit for Parker. Oubre Jr. has a lot of upside and played well when he was in Phoenix. He's a very intriguing option.

Paul George heading to Clippers as well. f***.
