    I mean I guess I still take Hield? Idk curry > wade? Can we say that now? Curry is better than Wade?
    Right now, Curry is obviously better than Wade. If we're talking about prime Wade vs prime Curry, I think Wade is better. Dude played unreal in the Finals to comeback against the Mavericks in 2006.

      • Curry revolutionized basketball. As good as Wade was, he isn't on that level of greatness. No disrespect but Curry's just on a level higher.

                • All the tweets coming from that press conference paint the Kings, and Divac as a GM, as utterly incompetent. Which are both true things.

                  • Heh, assuming that was on the table while the owner wasn't willing to trade DMC then off it by the time he gave the ok, I guess.

                    Kind of funny that while the owner was saying "no Cousins trades" the FO was taking calls on Cousins trades. Sounds like the White House down there.

                        You know for years people were complaining that Toronto needed was a hands on passionate owner like Mark Cuban.... well for every Mark Cuban there are the Vivek's, Dolan's, Sterling's and "Lebron's" lol Maybe faceless corporations ain't so bad, I mean 'member when Richard Peddie top choice was "Yes Man" Rob Babcock!? and he "allegedly" had the final say about anything that Rob did?! yeah didn't work out well then either.

                        I am glad Toronto has a proper hierarchical structure in place even though it may not be perfect at times.

                          As soon as I read that Ranadive was an engineer by training so much of the Sacramento nonsense makes way more sense to me. My experience with engineers who are running companies is that they are always the smartest guy in the room and rarely, if ever, listen to their advisors and experts. And why would they? They're the smartest guys in the room. Some guys eventually figure it out but it's a struggle for most of them to listen to bankers, accountants, lawyers, bd guys, hr, it, etc. I can't imagine him taking advice from ex-NBA players cause he'd view them as idiots, which, in fairness, wouldn't be much different than he'd view anyone else.

                            I'd waive VanVleet to get it done if I decided to do it...if I was making those decisions
                            I'd waive sully. We've invested a season of fvv running 905 and he's good pg3 for $.5m
                            If we trade Cory, still need fvv. Don't have to look at waiver wire til after deadline. Exhaust the trade market first.

                              It's been bad for most of the Raptors history. It all comes down to the leader on top in the end. The Raptors are doing well now because they finally have someone good calling the shots.

                              • Putting all the blame on Ranadive is off base.

                                From last night:

                                the Kings’ front office united in one goal: Getting Vivek Ranadive on board with trading three-time All-Star center DeMarcus Cousins. For months, Kings execs, from basketball to the business side, were in lockstep with the reality that rebooting the franchise without Cousins was the only long-term solution. Ranadive, the embattled owner, was all that stood in the way.

                                Ranadive stepped aside on Sunday...

                                Kings general manager Vlade Divac publicly pledged his allegiance to Cousins earlier this month, but internally, nobody believed him. The full-court press of Ranadive began before the season, league sources told The Vertical, and it was unrelenting.
                                http://sports.yahoo.com/news/demarcu...072616450.html

                                Ranadive is definitely responsible for hiring a bad GM and listening to him, but that's different than suggesting he was the mastermind of this clusterfuck.
