Is it? Fred's usage and assist rates were pretty low for basically the entire season after Pascal's return and ramp up to his usual performance. He made the all star team based heavily on his high usage the first couple months of the season. After that he was off the ball more and more as the season went on, even before the injuries started piling up.

You skipped the "defer to Scotty" part. Position and usage.
Sub Gary to the bench and bring the lower usage Precious into the lineup and you can give Scottie and OG small bumps no problem.

That's a shame if true, but hopefully we get something of long term value for Trent if he's being traded. Otherwise we really didn't get much more than a rental for Norm.

If we let Trent walk after his contract expires he would have played 2.5 seasons for the Raptors. How is 2.5 seasons a rental? How long does a player need to be on a team before you don't consider it a rental? For me the 1.5 seasons we've gotten moves him firmly out of rental territory. Half a season is a rental.

I hope they don't let him walk for nothing. They invested a lot of time on Norm and Trent to get nothing out of it for the future.
Guys just about only move via trade now, most free agent signings end up being sign and trades, so I'm sure we'll get something for Trent.
I think Trent gets dealt for a good draft pick this year, we're linked to too many guys that will go well before our pick.

Yeah I don't think we will, but if we did we got 2.5 seasons out of him which is not a rental.

If we get a good draft pick for Trent, it's something to be excited about because it makes the future of this team that much brighter. However we also push back that time line for when we contend by a couple more years. A couple years might be wishful thinking actually.

Swapping our sixth man for a good draft pick bumps the window back a year at most, it's our top bench guy not a starter. We need Scottie to be elite to win it all so it's really his time line so a draft pick fits better than Gary.
You know who doesn't? Pascal and FVV lol
The current "core" in Scottie's elite window Scotty, Precious and then OG and GTJr, either of which might be traded although OG doubtful I believe.

If you're going to base it on timeline alone, GTJr. fits perfectly as he just turned 23.

Gary does too but we can't afford to pay him and everyone else so he's gotta go for a cheaper deal. Hence the desire to trade him for a draft pick.

Maybe we've been spoiled a bit here because Scottie came in and was playable right away as a starter, but you can't expect a all rookies to be that way. And if we don't have good bench we will be playing the starters heavy minutes once again. It's not just pushing the window back by one year.
