Meh, listen, if toronto all of a sudden were to go 10-1 then 20-3 over the next 25 games than fine, fuck the tank, they are awesome. I have zero idea what they are doing, but if a team consistently wins, they are good. And Hey, i am not gonna hate on that. Toronto has a really young roster already.....

So - realistically, of course - we should chill out and watch these kids play.
They may play very well together *gasp*.
Imagine if everyone insisted Denver tank after the Carmelo trade?
That would be a damn shame.
This is why tank-talk drives me nuts.
Folks, that was a fine evening of excellent basketball.
Damn fine.
Keep an open mind, and enjoy a win yo.

*Get ready, possible negativity about to enter this post*
With the cap space, what free agent is available to get them over the hump that they can sign? While there is a lot of competition to reach the top of the draft this year, there is also an equal amount of competition this summer with salary cap space. 14 teams have enough cap space to offer $13M or more - that does not include possible team option declines.
When looking at the trade route, none of us are involved in GM negotiations so take this for what it is worth, what assets, outside of cap space and draft picks, do the Raptors have to improve the roster without giving up what we assume to be the current core (DD, JV, Ross, Amir)? We are getting a lesson in over valuing your own assets with Kyle Lowry.
Anyways, don't lose sight of my first sentence: you raise a very good point.
