Wow, I thought there would be an actual reason here, like some dastardly thing the team did. The number one reason was the uncertainty of a pending free agent? I stopped reading.
Again, don't let the door hit you, loser. We don't want you.
Real fans show loyalty. Real fans stick with their team when times are low, and that's what makes it so rewarding when it does turn around, you can say "I was there! Thru it all! I watched the aaron williams raptors, the aaron gray raptors. I watched "the guy" go from bosh to bargnani to rudy gay, and I'm still here!"

1. lowry's impending free agency, looks like we are going to overpay or let him walk for nothing, plus money that must be thrown at jv and ross next year preventing us from having the capspace to sign impact players
2. mediocre talent. No way to improve through draft, derozan extremely overrated, 1 dimensional. Not a likely chance superstar will be willing to come here based on history of franchises ability to attract talent. Trading for a talented player? Unlikely.
3.unproven GM masai. All he has shown is that he can get rid of lost causes and get a decent return (melo,bargnani,gay), there is nothing to indicate he can build a contener.
Basically what I'm saying is I don't see this ending well, and it is extremely frustrating, it's been a blast later guys.

Raptors are currently ranked 12th in the league. Never would have believed that was possible, even last June.
Masai has shown an ability to find nuggets in the draft and has three first round picks in the next two years, as well as financial flexibility.
Bye bye. Oh...close that door behind you.

According to this chart by RealGM, we are in quite good position There are no reason to leave a team because of speculations where the team will be after couple of seasons. That's why NBA franchises have GM's who can trade assets to improve situationWhat they got to say now? Nothing they can say now. Mobbin' on the low. Winnin' on the lowThe city embraced me, made me feel at home. The only difference [between Compton and Toronto] for me is the cold. -DeMarNo Where Near the South Side #WeTheNorth

I have been enjoying decent ball (when it is played, sadly? happily? Raps can play bad and still win) and not wanting to take away from the here and now.
However I feel the need to throw this at you - and just you, lol - to get you off that ledge: do you think DeRozan is the Raptors Jrue Holiday? (Flashback: Sixers traded Holiday for #6 2013 pick (Noel) and top-5 protected 2014).
In other words, do you think DeRozan a team/management/ownership tired of drafting year after year with wheels stuck in mud might look at their pick and maybe next years as a means to get a 'young', 'all-star' on a 'reasonable contract' that to go with their already young roster? I look at Charlotte, Minnesota, and Cleveland as definite possibilities among likely lottery teams (well, Cats have Pistons' pick and could have their own if they finish top 10 or below).
I know you stated DeRozan is overrated but there were those (especially stat geeks) who said the same about Holiday.
If they trade him for picks like what 76ers did with Jrue then why were you trying at all this year to compete? You should have bottomed out as soon as possible if that was the goal.
