Masai Ujiri is betting on himself, his philosophy and his ‘home’ as he tries to rebuild Raptors

Yep. We are in agreement. The franchise is betting on development, like we always have. Just isn’t working like it did before, since Nurse.

What we disagree on is that you think lack of player development in the Nurse era is 100% Masai and players, and 0% Nurse.

We can even extend this problem to lack of bench development in the Nurse era, which was rarely a problem under Casey, rather a strength.

The guy who said he's going to win a championship based on player development traded these players (DeMar and Jakob) for established vets ( Kawhi and Marc).

Nothing untrue about what Masai said is there? We did develop DeMar and Jak, as well as JV to the point where other teams wanted them. You're taking his words too literally if you think he means we have to win the championship with only players we have developed on the roster.

"You have the odd offensive guys that he (Masai) brought in like Meeks, Lin, Scola and Miles."
Ouch, what an indictment.

Masai simply cannot afford to miss again at the draft.

Masai said he tried to do it in Denver a little bit at first.
