who has also stated his intentions to retire when his contract is up...

[chris]

i've been good with the direction up until about now. you can't just tear apart a championship team immediately. (i mean i know you've advocated for it,...

[chris]

jimmy and spo + role players like caleb martin and gabe vincent and duncan robinson who stepped up relative to regular season expectations at least as...

[chris]

simons' destiny on a good team is as a 6th man. portland is obviously not a good team, and i'm not sure how he'd take going back to the bench, so it'll...

[chris]

a great win-now trade for the celtics in that case!

if the NBA still exists in 2029 the celtics will probably look pretty different tho...

[chris]

it's an unprotected pick in 2029. a lot can happen in 6 years...

no i don't know what's going to happen in a draft more than a year away and i'm not pretending to. i do know that they can get back into it if they decide...

[chris]

that's uh, a little pessimistic. he can absolutely trade him, it's just not for the return he wants (apparently they've already turned down hunter griffin...

[chris]

why is he fucked? i'd prefer them to trade siakam before the season starts as i've been on about ad nauseum, but seeing how the group plays together under...

[chris]

it's a bit of an anomaly to have three key players hitting free agency but the raptors have always been comfortable letting their guys get there and then...

[chris]

i would also like to see that lineup and definitely agree this should be a year for experimentation and seeing what we have with some of our younger guys....

[chris]

development of the next generation of raptors obviously. the pre-kawhi raptors were not a rebuilding team either, but development of pascal fred norm...
