Despite all the hoopla of the presser and media day, I still think the end result is a blow up of the roster and a crazy aggressive rebuild that ends is a marquee free agent.....
***yeah, yeah, likely more hope talking than reality***
.... I find it strange that:
.... yet status-quo is on the agenda?
JV is going to be a great basketball player but I don't think he is ever going to be an exciting star outside of Lithuania.
For the Raptors to get those exciting star players there are only two options:
1) draft,
2) free agency.
In today's NBA, you don't get the star free agents without other stars or a really good supporting cast along with cap space. As the roster currently stands there are no other stars and there is no cap space.
We'll see how it plays out but with a franchise C already on the roster, a total rebuild in 2 years is possible in my opinion assuming the team guts the dead weight sooner than later.

.... I find it strange that:
- Leiweke cans Colangelo because they disagree on the state of the roster and direction of the franchise
- Ujiri is brought in who shares vision with Leiweke
- Drake is brought in who shares vision with Masai and Tim
.... yet status-quo is on the agenda?
On his fandomMy favourite memories all stem from the Vince Carter era. It was an amazing feeling to have a player of that magnitude here, a star. I remember the first time I ever saw him featured in a music video. I want to bring exciting players here. I want to give them those memories.http://sports.nationalpost.com/2013/...e-cheap-seats/
