  • the G-League is also weird in it’s player affiliations/rights. it’s not a true farm team, unless players are signed on two-way deals.

    unless a player is signed to a two-way with the Raptors, any other team in the NBA that has a roster spot open can basically take the best players away from any other G-League team.

    on top of that, there are lots of injuries on the 905 this year, and really the roster wasn’t THAT great to begin with.















  • his is gonna make me sound like an old fart but I think it’s the other way around. The fan base has never been this easily frustrated. We used to be more patient because we’d never won anything before. We never had the luxury of an all-NBA player on the roster, one that half the fan base wanted to trade in order for better spacing with a budding superstar. Those of us who were here for the Babcock days, can you imagine? We never had a front office that made magical move after magical move that turned us into a championship squad. It was one bad trade after another, franchise-crippling moves. Free agent signings that didn’t work, random me-first players having career nights that cost us lottery balls. And horrible, horrible draft picks. Horrible lottery draft picks. And the coaching, oh my god the coaching.

    Anyway, does it look bad right now? A little bit. But not that bad. I’ve seen a lot wors

    you old fart! remember when … wait … what what are we talking about?

    seriously though, younger generations dont know how to take an L without coming up with some crazy hyperbolic take about needing to burn down everything. there’s no room for patience, development, or taking your lumps to improve yourself.

    i mean just look at how people have turned on Coach Darko as an example. brand new coach, 14 games of head coaching experience, and people are calling for his head. the same people that were cheering when a championship calibre coach like NN left.






  • you also okay with folks that steal from groceriy stores then?

    how about the folks that abuse the food banks?

    ride public transit without paying?

    maybe let’s not pay income taxes either, since that’s just the greedy government taking money?

    just cause things aren’t sold it doesn’t entitle others to take advantage of it for free.

    thats how prices of cheap things end up going up and becoming unaffordable.
