I remember writing a post a couple of years ago about how the Raptors don't stand a chance for the next half decade with BC, it's nice to see Raptors fans finally realize it now, albeit 2 years too...

Let me ask a question to Rap fans, are you happy being an 8th seed? If yes, note that this team clearly nowhere to grow except JV. We will be swept by Miami in the playoffs and hopefully look to...

Remember when Miami offered us Beasley for free as part of the Bosh sign-and-trade and BC refused? Replacements since trade: James Johnson (1st round pick), Linas Kleiza (5M), Alan Anderson, Terrence...

You raptor fans are interesting. Ask yourself if this team minus Lowry was a playoff team, then ask yourself what the expectations were after adding a player like him were. It skyrocketed from...

Yeah he's bulking up allright...doing bodyweight lunges and 2 lb bicep curls...can't wait to see him dunk Dwight Howard after all that heavy lifting!!

Bear in mind he's in the 10th grade

Lol...dillusional Rap fans as usual. I wrote last year before the season that the Raptors would be in the lottery for half a decade and it looks like I was wrong...It's going to be longer than that...

I don't want to pop your bubble but that lineup you read with Bayless and Jonas is almost D-League material in the NBA. Most draft picks don't pan out and the fact that the Raps can only add talent...

You make some good points but I'll clarify and explain further what I mean.

- I like Bayless on my team, unfortunately I prefer him to come off the bench. Bayless is not a true point guard and...

I'm surprised people are happy with this draft. I'm not going to bash euros like everyone else but what Brian Colangelo did was set back the team another 3-4 years possibly with a horrible draft.
...

We all know the great trades he made but some of the bad transactions he made standout as well. Trading Nash for nothing, trading Kidd for Marbury (I'd rather get nothing), trading a boat load of...

People blame Triano and Andrea but people need to understand that Colangelo is more responsible than anyone else and should be first to go. A lot of Raptor fans are infatuated with the big name gm...

100% right. The problem with bad teams in the NBA is they try to fit a system around players that don't fit. I have league pass and watched so many NBA teams with better talent than their record due...

Assuming the Raptors are profitable today and doing well, will that be the case 7 years from now if they stay at the bottom of the standings. It's easy to assume that fans will show up but the casual...

I don't believe that's the case, Charlotte fans were very unhappy with ownership group there and not showing up to games. 10 years later they still don't show up. As for Seattle, they were drawing...

I meant James Johnson at the end of his rookie contract would be 26 and a free agent (with no upside)

As for the Miami reference, I meant teams can get desperate on draft day and unload contracts...

My point is Toronto is doing fine now, but if management continues to screw up and the owners don't hold them accountable for it, it won't be long before the fan base is affected. Seattle and...

I think you misunderstood what I meant. Teams like the Knicks, Celtics, Bulls and other teams with solid fan bases and strong markets can survive a decade at the bottom of the barrel. Although...

A coaching change can make a big impact though. Look at Philly, last year they couldn't win a game without a miracle playing under that Princeton offense and Doug Collins has made significant strides...

Stability makes sense if you are going uphill. The Knicks and Nets were stable 2 years ago before firing the coach and gm of both teams, unloading the roster and starting over. Now they are in a...

And it's always valuable to have extra picks on hand come draft day as trading is rampant and you can always look to trade up. Let's look back, in 2005 Utah traded the 6th and 27th pick to move up to...

Plus, watch Chicago take that VERY SAME PICK and turn it into a quality player for them. I wouldn't be surprised if Mayo or Courtney Lee (either which is an upgrade over Johnson) gets traded to...

I'd rather draft a guy hoping he becomes a solid player and take that risk than wasting it on a scub like Johnson. Who was Landry Fields last year before the Knicks selected him. Look back on draft...

Let's welcome other teams junk that Brian Colangelo has accumulated. Will fit in perfectly with Weems, Ajinca, Wright and Kleiza. It's fair to say BC doesn't have much value in draft picks the way he...

What would Raptor nation do if Andrea is the starting center in 2011/2012?
