    “Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment and Masai Ujiri have decided to part ways, as Ujiri was entering the final year of his contract, sources tell ESPN.”

    Does not surprise me. Hit big with the Kawhi trade then did not really do much after that.

    Wasn't that long ago, I think the organization had come to different opinions.

    The Raptors FO's decision making and directional choices have been baffling

    He took a junk organization to a championship. If Ujiri isn't a great exec, he's definitely above-average IMO.

    I think it's near-impossible to build a championship contender in Toronto. I think whoever they hire will be a step down.

    Once Chris Bosh left, no other franchise in the NBA has been more dead to me than Toronto. Other than obviously Salt Lake City, is there another NBA town NBA players prefer less?

    He is the first or one of the first African GMs of the Old Continent......his name would be etched in the annals of history.

    Raptors have been kind of a joke wading around in mediocrity and irrelevancy since about 2020

    Did you see CMB cursing after he got drafted there? That’s why I want Stone to see if they can try to get him before he signs his contract since they are hell-bent on trading Cam.
