If he is a Nick Nurse disciple then I can't wait to see him outcoach Nurse

?

[ecart]

They're old friends. Another friend of Nurse's (Finch) is getting HC looks. If he doesn't succeed, I wouldn't be surprised if we hire Finch to fill Nate's spot.

Good for Bjorkgren. A sign of a good culture is when other teams want your staff. Happened at the GM level too. Gotta extend Ujiri.

You must have seen the same thing as me. NBA people pressing hard to get traffic.

From the latest mock via Bleacher Report...2020 NBA Draft...it has the Raptors at #29 taking PG Cassius Winston but from what I heard:

The Clippers and Raptors are trying to work a sign and trade deal that sends Kyle Lowry to the Clippers reuniting Lowry with Kawhi...and the Raptors in return receive Montrezl Harrell the 6th Man of the Year and the Raptors in the sign and trade would also get Marcus Morris, Sr

Then the Raptors would re sign VanVleet to be their PG which is FVV's natural position

Powell would become their starting SG

i think we draft zeke nnaji if hes available although hes stock has been risiing.

we interviewed karim mane, possible undrafted signing or at #59.

Zeke Nnaji as a Raptor...I can't see it but if he got drafted to the Raptors...I wouldn't mind it

It would be heartbreaking to see Lowry leave, but there is a logic to the idea that makes some sense.

Not for that return imo. I need picks and your players with ceiling. I don’t even want Harrell, especially for Lowry.

I’d be happy to draft Zeke. One of the youngest players in the draft but can start playing a role immediately.

God damnit Davis. First the mask with the hole in it, now this?!

Id love to make a run at Dinwiddie and Levert

Lowry and Thomas = 31.5 mill

Dinwiddie and Levert = 27.6 mill

FVV - Dinwiddie
Levert - Davis
Og - Norm
Siakam - Boucher
Ibaka

Our team gets a lot younger in this deal and open up their window to compete. Siakam is 26, FVV 26, Levert 26, Dinwiddie 27, OG 23, Ibaka would be our oldest player at 31. Thats a core entering its prime with lots of mileage in left in the tank.


Lowry
Irving - Temple
Durant - Harris
Prince - Musa
Allen - Jordan

Lowry gives Irving and Durant a third star who is gritty and brings them toughness and someone who does the small things. Lowry would make guys like Prince and Allen better too as that team lacks a floor general and leader. Irving and Durant are incredible scorers and finesse players. But Lowry would be the one who takes the charges, gets other players going, makes the right basketball play to win games. They need that.

I think this trade could benefit both teams.
