    Loyalty? Toronto gave a middle tier player 30 million per. What exactly does loyalty mean?

    Hey I'm just saying it's the best, most wonderful, greatest position. :Noddingyes:

    But really we don't have a young stud there. :D Unless Wagner changes dramatically in the athleticism department, it's the only spot I'm not feeling confident about. Lonzo, Hart, Ingram, and Kuz have the other positions all but wrapped up for the next decade or so.

    This is from way earlier today, but I didn’t see it posted yet. Made me laugh

    The irony of you saying anyone else lives in a fantasy land is what's most amazing.

    Middle tier? That’s absolutely ridiculous unless you mean “middle tier star.” DeRozan has the third most win shares over the past three seasons. He’s very good, even if you don’t like how he “shoots.”

    I’m confused, of course he’s going to play. Did anyone actually think he’s not going to play and give up a year or his career and all that money? Means absolutely nothing for free agency.

    He doesn’t really have a choice. Sitting out isn’t a rational option.

    Nice selective quoting by whoever said that. Video is here

    2:42 - 3:22, pay attention to Woj’s last sentence

    Come on dude, if your going to swing emotions on every little report it's going to be a long season for you and us if we have to hear about it.

    Of course Kawhi and his camp better shape up and play this year. Duh..

    My stance has been firm this whole time. We'll have good perspective on this decision in the 2019-2020 season. As I said before, I've moved on. Excited to see how our team plays and what offense we use.

    I figured it was something like that. Of course they are going to spin it that way.

    I agree on the Poeltl front, he improved quite a bit last year and was a key rotation player for the Raptors. Great friends with Kuzma too
