Who's going to be the new head coach of the Toronto Raptors?

You could say Detroit is more attractive then Houston ..

but how good are strip clubs in Detroit?

"Established ceiling"

He's not wrong.

The Rockets have better young players.

And apparently harden is coming back

If you're a free agent coach, Houston is the team. I'd take them over Detroit right now and I'd definitely take them over Toronto.

We already know the ceiling of this Raptors team. If they run it back and add a couple of shooters, I could see them finishing 6th in the East. Finish 6th, lose in the 1st round. That's their ceiling. That is apparently ok with this management.

* Obviously the Wemby thing changes everything. If Detroit wins the lottery, obviously you take them over Houston.

I think it's weaksauce to be an nba coach and say you can't take a team with as much talent as the raptors and make a lot of noise. If the raptors had a couple less key victories we would have already been a second round team this year.

Good riddance, I would never want a coach that doesn't beleive in his team's maximum potential.

It's not his team. He had options and chose the one he felt best about.

But Siakam started playing basketball late!! He's still young!

Udoka: A lot of things were attractive about this team. Cap space is important and young talent

Young talent, cap space, and extremely low expectations.

Vs

Capped out, one young talent, and top 4 finish expectations.

Super easy choice for Udoka.

Masai thinks this roster is close and Udoka knows they're not and isn't gonna sign up for this shit.

[golden]

The game plan must be to bring in a rookie coach, retain assets and blow it up at the deadline, unless they catch lightning in a bottle.

Like what's the sales pitch to Udoka?

We think you're so much better than Nick Nurse that you'll be expected to take this 9 seed and make them a top 4 seed with the same exact roster.

[Shredder]

I think one or two "key pieces" are on the move this summer. I don't think they are bringing everyone back. Masai stressed that there is "value" on this team when asked about trading a pick for Jak. That to me sounded like he was going to get some value back, and move a piece or two.
