If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.

Watching things unfold around the league, this really has been an amazing off season for Toronto thus far.
Masai and Co. deserve a lot of credit.
While everyone else was waiting to see what would happen, they got their shit done - proactive vs. reactive.
Best of all no one was overpaid except Vasquez but, realistically, he would have landed a MLE somewhere so it is $1.2M per season overpayment but 2 seasons less on his contract (4 year MLE vs 2 year deal signed).
The Raptors have the best of both worlds: young guys primed to get better with very high ceilings on their potential while still competing in the here and now.
They have all their first round picks moving forward and an extra one in 2016.
I've never been more confident about the Raptors future than right now.

I've never been more confident about the Raptors future than right now.I relish negativity and disappointment. It is not healthy. Somebody buy me a pony.

Morrow not on way to Raptors:
Anthony Morrow has agreed to join the Thunder, giving Oklahoma City a 3-point shooter and depth on the wing. Story coming soon.

Yeah, James held up NBA business for 11 days while he decided his future. Teams were angry. Some had assets that evaporated during the wait, including the Warriors, who considered Brandon Bass and other names in exchange for a trade exception that expired yesterday at midnight. But everyone takes time to mull hard professional decisions. Those are times to be careful, to bounce ideas off of everyone in your inner circle. LeBron inconvenienced the league, but it was just that — an inconvenience — and smart teams did whatever business they could in the interim. Not everything has to be a referendum on LeBron James’s personality.

Somehow I think "please don't fire me, it was all LeBron James' fault" isn't going to work if some of these teams stink because of their GM's free agency performance.
