Yep, big problem. But not as big an issue as it might seem. It being bigger helps with the heavier bit. If it's twice the diameter and 8 times the weight,...

[DanH]

I've been thinking there was a decent chance Boucher would be the one to not make the cut since it came out that Payne had a decent sized guarantee back...

[DanH]

In theory Payne's value comes from the Raptors having Lowry, FVV (who isn't really a true PG) and a complete mystery in Davis (who also looks more like...

[DanH]

Personally I'd be re-signing Lowry to a silly 1 year deal and trying to get him to retire a Raptor on a more reasonable contract thereafter. Keep the...

Marner re-signs for 10.9M, 6 years. Not great on AAV, but the term is the key. Staggered from Matthews, and the AAV is at least in the realm of manageable....

[DanH]

Some of it was that.

Some of it was also that we had a lot of good shooters and scorers and passing wasn't really a bad option. Some of it...

[DanH]

I kind of think they will. He's definitely one of the candidates (it's him, Miller or Payne, IMO, and as much as I despise Payne's game, positionally...

[DanH]

That silly Lowry offer (well, 40M, which is his max) is exactly what should happen. Best for all parties, IMO. No reason to keep more than one of Ibaka/Gasol,...

[DanH]

We can keep basically all the guys we'd want to keep past two summers from now and still have max cap room if we are smart about it. Depends on whether...

Drat....

[DanH]

I suspect it has full games of the championship series, though the whole run would be great....

Barrett has been GM for, what, 8 months? Geez Doug.

[DanH]

And to be clear, even if we lose the next two we probably make the qualifying tourney anyway as a wild card selection. Still, winning better than los...

[DanH]

This is the concern. The more people set up their teams like this, the more it is a luck of the draw random selection, something I'd think we want to...

[DanH]

Next two games are big, but if they do well in them it means they qualify for the qualifier, not the Olympics. And, frankly, with all the other Americas...

[DanH]

LOL, my other proposal is just my pet project that I bring up to get smacked down every year.

For the nomination order, the change seems...

[DanH]

Essentially it's just more work for the mods (which is a meaningful consideration that should be weighted heavily when thinking about this idea). You...

[DanH]

Feels like a good time to once again bring up my revolutionary and much reviled idea to tie our FAAB (draft only) money directly to how much cap space...

[DanH]

It was Fran Fraschilla, but he was quoting Masai (there is an Open Gym clip of the draft room when Fran is making those comments and Masai says "hey,...

jbml you should poke your head in here if you get this notification....
