At this point I'm convinced that Masai could trade the Raptors roster for the Warriors' and T-Rex would find a way to complain about it.

Well now that the incredibly crucial, viscerally tense , vital to the strategic direction of the franchise, dressing room calming and dog gone just about the most important move in the offseason of bringing on an assistant coach role has been completed...... the GM can breathe a sigh of relief and take it easy.
Next up.. the rather tedious and boring Free Agency and Trade window over the next couple weeks that will shape the teams chances and direction ...... and painting the foyer to his office.There's no such thing as a 2nd round bust.

Raptors signed coaches with strong developmental background so if tank is ever employed we will have coaches who can develop young guys on a team. I'm pro-tank but it's abundantly clear that teardown will take a while to complete. Don't see the point of talking about it after every move Raps make.Only one thing matters: We The Champs.

But when you have a roster like Toronto. And the fact that they keep wetting the bed every year in the playoffs, specially their two "stars" ....only a fool would say everything is "fine"
And no Nick Nurse is not going to make a difference. Their offense might be a little better but they're not beating top end teams in the playoffs.Mamba Mentality

If the Raptors hired him as their head coach a couple of weeks ago. What would your reaction be? EXACTLY.Mamba Mentality

But at the end of the day it's not going to matter because this roster blows. No heart, no competitive spirit. When you don't have a superstar on your team you better compete like your life depends on it. But they played like complete pussies against the Cavs.
I want change.Mamba Mentality

Literally 0 teams have done a single noteworthy transaction yet but somehow raptors are sitting on their hands whistling Dixie. Overreaction like this is why executives roll their eyes at "fan opinions"9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

Next - Masai will do nothing and keep the roster intact. And he will hype up Nurse as a difference maker going into next season. And the Raptors fanbase as usual would buy into it like fools because they think Masai is some genius.
