    The above from KeonClark is why people care. Far more people view the "everything raptors" thread than the "everything nba" thread. Also, if it's true that "everything raptors" is indeed only for players who play for the Raptors right now, what's going on with: the everything vince carter thread, the everything alfonzo mckinnie thread, even the everything rawle alkins thread being in the section?! Yes you've moved the bruno caboclo and dwayne casey ones after I pointed it out, great. (and there are many others buried in the section about players no longer on the raptors)

    I would also like to point out that the description of the section "everything raptors" is: "Discuss anything and everything Raptors related. Opinions, Breaking News, Personnel Updates. etc."

    Is Demar's career trajectory, especially in the season immediately following the trade, not Raptors related? Do you think if Demar has success, grows a lot under Pop, or regresses, or wins a championship, or whatever, either way his whole time up to this year in Toronto will not be brought up over and over, what the organization did to grow him, what he did to grow while here, how they heartlessly traded him away, and so on?
    My apologies as I will be succinct.

    Keon can go to the NBA subforum and he will survive. If people genuinely share his desire to talk about Demar, then he won’t be alone. Demar’s career trajectory isn’t part of the Raptors anymore.

    Other threads will be moved. Mods are people with jobs and summer and stuff - some things take longer than others. I went back for the last few pages and moved the ones that jumped out at me in the time I had. More importantly, someone made the decision to do it and there’s no reason for me or anyone to overrule that. Fact is, Demar plays for San Antonio now and we have an amazing player to talk about now (plus Danny Green is a nice fit).

    To your last line “heartlessly traded him away” - would you expect Masai to pass on Kawhi to appease Demar? That’s a bold stance - feel free to discuss in the Masai Thread, Demar thread, or start a new thread.

                Thanks for your reply, that's fair enough reasoning I suppose, even though I would've rather kept the thread around. I guess the idea of a Demar-less Raptors is still taking some getting used to for me, as great a future as it might lead to in the end! Appreciate the sticky for the Demar thread though, that's a nice nod to keeping him relevant on these forums

                  https://www.sportsnet.ca/basketball/...-deal-rockets/

                  Bruno Caboclo has reached a deal with the Houston Rockets, according to ESPN’s Chris Haynes.

                  Free agent forward Bruno Caboclo, Houston have reach an agreement, league sources tell ESPN.


                  An Exhibit 10 deal is an NBA contract worth a minimum salary and no bonuses, but gives a team the flexibility to convert the contract into a two-way contract, which would then tie Caboclo closely with Houston’s G League franchise, the Rio Grande Valley Vipers.

                  The G League is Bruno’s claim to fame, where he helped lead the Raptors 905 to a title in 2017.

                  Originally drafted 20th overall by the Toronto Raptors and an instant fan favourite, Caboclo was traded before last season’s deadline to the Sacramento Kings in exchange for swingman Malachi Richardson.

                  He was not re-signed after his contract expired.

                  Caboclo would be entering his fifth season in the league, if he were to make Houston’s final roster.

                  • If there are any Bruno fans still here and you subscribe to The Athletic, the Memphis site has an article.

                      i don't know if you can't understand english, or if you simply enjoy denying raw stats.

                      Bruno dropped 31 in the d-league at age 21.

                      How many usc players even make it to the d-league, let alone the nba?

                      Delon wright is 25, and you seem to have no complaints about him, i'm pretty sure he was all pac 10 at some point.

                      Bruno is still one of the youngest players we have.

                      You're becoming delusional, and i'm worried about you trex.

                      holy fuck. Why do you keep talking about the d-league???? It's the fucking d-league!!!! Stop talking about his 31 points bullshit. It means nothing. Vander blue won the fucking mvp in that league last year and he's nothing more than a garbage time player in the nba.

                      As for wright, what's your point exactly? He's shown that he's an nba player. That he's good enough to be at least a backup pg in the nba. Your boy bruno has shown nothing. I don't give a shit how old he is. He's entering his 4th season and the guy still plays like an idiot. He hasn't gotten any better. He plays like a clown even on garbage time.

                      You're completely delusional if you think this guy will play any meaningful mins in the nba.
                      lol
