The timing couldn’t be more perfect for him in a contract year. Hard to even guess what his next contract would have been if he didn’t take this step, but if he keeps this up he will probably get around what he is currently getting paid again 25-30mil.

The added spacing thanks to Aldridge's rise in threes attempted and made also helps immensely. His value is interesting because he still requires the ball in his hands and we all know there is a ceiling with him being your best player.

To clarify, when we won 56 games in 2015-2016, you don't believe he was our best player?

Do you guys think there is a trade deadline move coming?

Depends on if there's a gm out there that isn't afraid of getting fleeced by Masai.

Come on Pebloemer, you are baiting me at this point.

No.

Man I was so wrong about Zion. If he can stay healthy he will own the league. His 3 is looking good, and he doesn’t look short out there at all.

I knew you would understand my tone. I'm getting more passive aggressive lately. Approaching the mid life crisis perhaps.

I don't know, i think his jumper looks flat. I also see him having some issues defensively.

As much hate and as much flack as I have given the Raptors...to see Siakam named as a starter even I have to admit I'm happy for him because it is much deserved

I love seeing Siakam voted in as a starter, but how on earth are Kemba and Trae starting over Lowry and Butler? That part is just foolish to me. Especially Trae since the Hawks are terrible so far.

Hopefully Lowry and/or FVV can make the reserves.

Lowry as a reserve I can see it

Kemba is deserving for sure. I don't think anyone expected Lowry to be a starter this year. I just hope he gets in. If Irving gets in over him I'll be pissed.

I think Lowry gets snubbed
