Raptors Discussion: v75| Season of Kawhi Part 1: Greatest expectations

[AllDay28]

Kawhi to DD is like, wanting to risk it all for a 1 night stand with a 10/10 or settling with a 6/10 cause he/she is loyal

The day to day flip flopping of opinions by the media is embarrassing

I'd say it's more like going out with the dream girl, who just got out of a shitty relationship. You don't know her that well, but she's gorgeous and has a big heart. She may or may not be ready to be in a relationship, and most likely it won't last. But you take the shot knowing that you have everything that girls want, and you might even be the one for her.

The other option is a pretty girl who you've been with for a while, and she's been loyal, but has her faults. She's a great girlfriend, and you can see yourself staying in the relationship longer because there's no real turmoil, but you can't see yourself marrying her, and know that it's going to end eventually, just not as soon as the relationship with the new girl likely will.

DeMar was very well liked by the media in this city. He was always available and had an amicable demeanour.

Even though the trade makes a lot of sense for the Raptors, the initial reaction from most of the media was bound to be guarded.

You're just jealous

What I mean is someone like Skip Bayless was seemingly pro Raptors on the trade yesterday and now today, he's calling Kawhi soft, etc... and loving the trade for the SAS. He's just one example.

These people are flip flopping on their opinions everyday but then again, it's my fault I'm giving them the time of day

DeMar is clearly the one that doesn't belong

I was being facetious

I thought it was the guy that only makes 11m per.

A Bruins fan living in the GTA...what a unique snowflake you are. Enjoy the attention.

Speaking of contracts, the Raps can offer $50m more than any other team. But wouldn’t it be even higher because we know he only wants to go to LA. Why would LA give him a max contract knowing he’s not going anywhere else?

Because there’s two teams in LA and they both want him.

He’ll actually go to the Clippers knowing they are back to being terrible?

 

[The Nemesis]

It's good to know DeMar isn't being a petulant baby about all of this...

 

[AllDay28]

I posted this on my fb and twitter. its getting to the point where DD has to realize hes a 30 yr old grown man making 30m/yr. Grow up

 

[Jozay]

lol are people gonna follow demars every move?

who cares what he posts on ig, he's gone now

 

[Eyedea]

He’ll actually go to the Clippers knowing they are back to being terrible?

Yes.

Can't wait to see what he posts when he sees us in the NBA finals next year What a suck

The sports fan in me wants to see a TOR-SA NBA Finals...

lol, man that would be amazing.

I was talking about DD. Once again, leaf fans making it all about them.

Yes it would but probably like 0.1% chance of them making it. The sports fan in me wants to see a Kawhi vs Lebron NBA Finals. That would be an unbelievable head to head matchup.

 

[Morgs]

It's refreshing seeing an executive walk up to the media and just tell it like it is.

As Masai said, we can only run out the same core so many times and lose. If he does nothing, the media and fans want his head, he makes a trade, the media and fans want his head. When there's a top-5 player available during your window, you jump all over it. No matter if it's for one year or not.

It was a great move that will make us a much better team today, and will speed up the rebuild if he doesn't re-sign. I really don't understand why we can't enjoy having the best player in Raptors history on our team for one (hopefully more) year.

I hope they give Delon Wright all the possibilities in the world to be this team’s new shooting guard. He could be a 15+ point player if he has starter minutes with Lowry and Leonard.

He's not a shooting guard. He's a point guard. He can have 10+ points and 5+ assists if you give him the keys to the 2nd unit.
