By IWMTB19 Go To PostHow many years does LeBron have left.Whatever the fine print says
He's already played more minutes than Pippen played in his entire career.
By Omzz Go To PostWhatever the fine print says
?
By Dark PhaZe Go To PostThey zoomed in and he had a look like damn how he ain't get hit with a flagrant yetJust cap'd it
I did not believe in Cleveland, I thought you couldn't win in the playoffs while being a terrible defensive team.
But you can it seems.
But really, Channing Frye, Tristan Thompson, and Kevin Love has to got to be the worst defensive frontcourt put together in decades for a Finals team.

so like....do the Raptors blow it up or nah?
I'm not one to call for tanking anytime a team loses but the Lowry Derozan combo seems to have reached it ceiling, no?

I mean, why not keep it going and hope LeBron gets worse next year?
LeBron is 32 and a half years old, he's going to decline sooner or later. The rest of the East is not very good...
That 2010 Lakers team looked unbeatable and then Pau and Kobe and Odom got way too old to play defense and then they got rocked.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostI mean, why not keep it going and hope LeBron gets bad next year?i guess. But we have been waiting for LeBron to show signs of humanity for a while now, no?

By RATHasReturned Go To PostFUCK the Raptors.
FUCK the Eastern Conference.
This Cavs team might chip again honestly
By knux-future Go To Posti guess. But we have been waiting for LeBron to show signs of humanity for a while now, no?
Sure, but it's a pretty insane assumption historically to predict that LeBron will still a top 3 player in the NBA after 60k minutes.
If LeBron stays at this level for three more years, he's obviously going to break the scoring record and many longevity records.
If LeBron ages, this Raptors team is in the Finals... Seems fine to keep the team together.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostSure, but it's a pretty insane assumption historically to predict that LeBron will still a top 3 player in the NBA after 60k minutes.Milwaukee and other teams will pass up toronto.

By pilonv1 Go To PostRegular season means shitI kept trying to tell cats. They're gonna curb stomp Boston too.
By pilonv1 Go To PostRegular season means shit*in the east if your team has Lebron James
By s y Go To PostMilwaukee and other teams will pass up toronto.
"and other teams" is doing a lot of work here. Which teams? The 76ers will be great if they hit on their picks this year and Embiid stays healthy and Simmons is good, but man that will need luck. Will Brad Beal ever be as good as he is this season again for the Wizards? The Bucks also are relying on the future with Thon Maker (guy who couldn't catch a basketball eight months ago) and Jabari Parker (two blown out knees). Not many other young teams in the East after those three too.
Will the Celtics be good when Isaiah Thomas and Avery Bradley and Al Horford make a combined $80 million a year?
I mean, the Raptors have reason to believe that they have a decent probability of making the Finals three years from now.

By blackace Go To Postif the west is a joke and the east is hot trash then the NBA is what?

The chances of a rebuild succeeding are like... what 30%?
And success is usually defined as becoming as good as the Raptors are now.
DeRozan scores 27 PPG on decent efficiency and with a good contract, don't tank.
Probably need to trade Valanciunas, never got smart enough :(

I mean, it also depends on how much you care about various things in the NBA.
Like, no team other than the Warriors will win a title in the next four years probably so if your goal is "win a title" like 26 teams should blow it up.
Change can be more fun for some NBA fans.
But the Raptors are going to win 50 games next year and could make a Finals one day (where they will get nuked) with this core. Just depends on what the fans would be most entertained by.

Regular season is just extended practice.
By IWMTB19 Go To PostI mean, it also depends on how much you care about various things in the NBA.They won 50 games, got punked by a team with two rookie starters and literally no PG, and got smacked up worse than a team led by Paul "Douchenozzle" George.

Keep Derozan, but everything gotta get aired out.
By masud Go To PostI kept trying to tell cats. They're gonna curb stomp Boston too.
Celtics was acting so stupid during the season. Like y'all the Cavs are vulnerable.
By Smokey Go To Postgoodbye slaent am outlmao
By knux-future Go To Postso like….do the Raptors blow it up or nah?This decision on whether to max the fuck out of Lowry is some sick stuff.
I'm not one to call for tanking anytime a team loses but the Lowry Derozan combo seems to have reached it ceiling, no?
Raptors FO probably feels like they have no choice.
By pilonv1 Go To PostHow are the Spurs still in this?
Rockets shooting threes like they're GSW, and missing.
By kjack Go To PostThis decision on whether to max the fuck out of Lowry is some sick stuff.Choosing between maxing Lowry and letting him walk is what made Anakin kill the younglings
Raptors FO probably feels like they have no choice.
By Kuma Go To PostCeltics was acting so stupid during the season. Like y'all the Cavs are vulnerable.Ok... You go ahead and get emotionally invested in that.
By pilonv1 Go To PostHow are the Spurs still in this?LMA showed up.
