Old, injury-prone and inconsistent in the playoffs

I appreciate what he's done for this franchise but it's time to go our separate ways

it will be a really bad contract if they sign him, they need to make their decision, do they want to continue with these atlanta hawks-like playoffs or do they finally rebuild? which is a hard decision because rebuilding aint guaranteeing them the bigger success than what they have and players usually dont wanna play in canada so....

I don't mind Lowry back at all, just not for 5 years. 3 years at most. Ibaka needs to come back.

Letting go of Carrol and Casey is more important. Maybe we can see how this team really is with a new coach. We can see how JV really is in a new system, if nothing changes, we can get rid of him at the deadline.

Powell can take the three... unless it's Bruno time.

I really don't see the Raptors drafting someone in the first round, won't be surprised if that's packaged in a deal. Maybe get a second rounder for an out of the blue sleeper.

What y'all think about Siakam moving forward? I really didn't think much of him in all the games he started. Understand he is young, but not sure how much he can contribute.

I wouldn't mind bruno starting hes young, athletic, long.

lowry will geta 5 year deal somewhere he can take it.

i'd also trade val hes slow, one of the worst finishers around the basket, defense sucks

raptors need more playmakers, a guy who can consistenlty knock down the three a big man who can play d and get gritty inside

Redikk, Gerald Green, Tony Allen and Patty Mills are free agents and Gallinari got a player option. I'd also mention James Johnson but the Heat gonna give him a big contract and rightfully so

If we let Cory Jo go, I'd like to see Rose.

It's gonna be an interesting off season for the Raps come draft night

You can be a playoff team without paying Lowry...
Yeah but it greatly reduces their chances of making it. They miggy fukk around and be rebuilding for a decade if they take this mentality. I want competitive squads.
