    Did Jack Kingoff mention anything about Harden being out of shape yet? I feel like that's the next logical post. Like Clutchfans logic, not like you know.. normal folk.

    Gonna try this off memory.

    1. Called Whiteside being good and to target him before he came back and exploded. This was prior to the dumb foolery he does now but when he first exploded in miami and got himself paid.

    2. Hmmmm...

    3. Ughh.......

    -Ty Lawson non-guaranteeing his second year contract (crazy that he got this one)
    -T. Jones being out of the league (think he technically missed it by one year, but he was overall right)
    -Lebron didn't sign with the Rockets. He did say there was a 1% chance he'd sign somewhere other than Houston. ;)

    We are watching the situation in Toronto and have already thrown our hat in the ring. I'm not saying were getting Kawhi or even that he'll be traded. But if the Raps lose hope of keeping him then Engel either let him walk or they might trade him in the right deal. And we'll be in the running for him if we haven't acquired one of the other guys.

    You don't know what you're talking about if you think there's no way Ujiri would ever talk to Morey about KL this season. These guys always do their homework.

    Welp,

    I just skimmed two pages of this thread.

    @cyberx is talking about sriracha hot sauce. @don grahamleone is talking about Yoko Ono. And @Plowman is posting a pic of a ladder below a trap door. But you choose to jump me for bringing up Winslow and Oubre when I was ASKED what I had been hearing.

    LOL, how twerpy nitwitty of you. As usual.

    They do their homework and find out that it’s not worth a conversation. I know quite a bit about Toronto and Masai. Even if you’re talking extremes, like Toronto losing all their games with a healthy Kawhi, or Kawhi being injured, Masai is spending the whole year trying to convince him to sign long term with Toronto. Nothing short of Lowry and Ibaka running a train on Kawhi’s girl is going to lead to Masai exploring a trade.
    EDIT: even then they would try and trade those two and convince him to stay but those contracts are tough to move.

    Been wondering about KL. Is he truly disgruntled? Morey has been after him twice in the past four years...
    Jonathan Feigen - July 18, 2018:
    The Raptors likely will also need to heal Kyle Lowry's feelings about dealing his friend and star backcourt partner, effectively ending an era. A player elevated by his emotion, Lowry was his best when driven by the feelings that came when the Raptors were on the rise. From the 2016 All Star game to the 2017-18 regular season spent atop the East, there was a sense in Toronto that the Raptors were riding a wave of "We The North" momentum. That all must now be rebuilt.

    Lowry's name is on top of this (shopping) list ? ...

    I said there was a good chance Terrence would be out of the league within 5 years. He was out in 2.

    I also said Omri Casspi was better than both Terrence and Donuts. He still is!

    Larry Sanders - said his contract extension could easily backfire because he was a loon.

    Kyle Lowry-called the trade. Then I told you he was better than Aaron Brooks before Brooks 4th season.

    Chris Paul trade

    I'm also right on what happened to DMo and that will come out later.

    I was wrong on LeBron. So was Chris Paul and Joel Embiid though.

    And I'm right about Rubio. Ha!

    I was right about the Jazz last year when the national guys and you guys were picking the Nuggets in the playoffs and the Jazz out. I said the Jazz were a playoff team and the Nuggets probably wouldn't make it.

    I was also right about Andre Drummond. He's a bust.

    I told you SVG was a terrible GM and a good coach.

    And I told you Wiggins had high odds of being a bust in his second season.

    Oh, told you Parsons wasn't going to be traded.

    And I told you Richuan Homes was going to be better than many first rounders drafted ahead of him. And I profiled him before the draft guys had him in their mock drafts. And I was disappointed we took what's his name ahead of Richuan. Richuan is the better player.

    Told you barring serious injury that we were going to lose to the Spurs in the 2017 playoffs.

    I also told you we needed another primary playmaker alongside Harden when we had Bev and Ariza around him. And I told you we'd never win a championship with Harden averaging over 4 turnovers a game. We haven't. And we won't.

    I also told you before the Anthony Davis draft that he would have to play the 5 to be the greatest he could be when he was being projected as a 4 by everybody.

    I also told you Spencer Dinwiddie was a player and we should trade for him while he was still injured and recovering.

    I told you Perry Jones was probably a bust and shouldn't be drafted high before his draft.

    Told you JJ Redick would have a top 10 career for his draft class.

    Told you Chris Singleton would bust before he was drafted.

    I could go on and on.

    Pay up.

    I was referencing Kawhi. But if things break down for Toronto this season and they can't get the right deal for Kawhi and have to let him walk you can bet they'll be looking to dump Lowry's deal for cap space and assets.

    We have a good chance to get Butler if third team come up with an all-star level player for us.

    Tillman is happy to pay him max next summer.
