Can Raptors Recruit LaMarcus Aldridge?

[stooley]

Is it sad that I'm still holding out hope?

I had some hope before wednesday. Knew it wasn't going to happen when we signed Carroll, just too many moving pieces.

Not a bad thing though, i like what weve done so far.

This leaves a GAPING hole at the 4. Wonder what Masai's contingency plans are.

Raptors did well in meeting with LaMarcus Aldridge, but it is unlikely he picks the Raptors, per source.

"did well" - how do you fuck up trying to give someome $20M, besides having Kobe in the room

id be happy with bass/oquinn/davis.

i dont think any of those guys would be significant downgrades from last year's amir.

amir's been an rpm darling, but its a multiyear stat and im not sure he lived up to that last year.

Yes, very sad and very unrealistic

It's possible to hope while acknowledging the unlikeliness.

This screams 49 wins and a 1st round exit

Sign Matthews to start at SG, then trade DeRozan for Favors?

Trade for Faried or Gibson? I'd rather go for Faried... And then there's Mathews and that weird small ball line up idea.

healthy lowry and carroll should be able to get us to the second. only cleveland is really unbeatable

[stooley]

also, what are the odds we can teach JJ to rebound and go that small ball route?

remember his d on griffin?

Wonder how Utah feels about Alec Burks. Is he worth sitting on, or do they need an immediate upgrade at SG?

Raptors have had gaping holes for so many years we're probably filming Backdoor Dinos 19 this coming season.
