OT: The Official Toronto Raptors Thread

Feel like Clippers have the inside track due to personal and family for Kawhi. Still hoping Masai gets this done
 
I could live with Kawhi going to the Clippers.

The one thing that'd really gross me out and sour me on Kawhi is if he joins up with the Lakers on yet another Bron Bron super-team.

That'd be the ultimate gutless move.
 
The thing to remember is that while he clearly wanted to go "home" last year, that was with the only pro organization and city he had known being the San Antonio Spurs. Living a year in Toronto and playing for the Raps has to have significantly changed his perspective on things. There's no way it hasn't. The Raptors have no question marks for him to worry about - they've proven that they're a first class organization, with first class medical and training departments, with first class people running the show, with first class super talented team-first championship-calibre teammates, and a first class city to play in.

There is no way he would pass up this opportunity to hear the best free agency pitches he can before making a final decision, but I have a very hard time seeing anyone beat the Raptors' pitch at this point. Not even the clippers, given that LA isn't even his home anyways.

Ujiri says ‘running it back’ — returning everyone, including Gasol and Green — is a top priority.

They can win more. But I do think they need to add in order to win more. Need a little more shooting help.
 
Can Nando do this?

****ed if I know. My guess is that he can't really do it at a high level, no. Hope to be proven wrong. I would love one addition that can either create for himself off of the bounce, or someone dangerous off the catch and shoot on the move like Reddick, TRoss, Ellington, Seth Curry, etc.
