And even then, sure, maybe upgraded isn't a fair term. I had love for Case. Always will.
But I couldn't bear to watch those mistakes in the playoffs any longer.
That's not to say Nick Nurse or Ettore Messina ...or even Gregg Popovich can get this squad past Lebron.
Something new had to come. And I trust Masai's decision-making here. He knows all that's at stake.

Looks like he might be in the bottom 3rd of the league (but not the cheapest).. although some salaries aren't listed.

2018: 1-4 on the road
2017: 1-4 on the road
2016: 2-7 on the road
2015: 0-2
2014: 1-2
That's 5-19 with this iteration of the Raptors, which looks bad, but winning on the road in the playoffs is difficult. I don't think that is anywhere close to a historically bad mark. The 2008 Celtics won the championship and still only went 3-9 on the road.That is a normal collar. Move on, find a new slant.
