    We are rebuilding by default now

    Morey was gonna hard after Dwight, Gogi, and Eric Gordon. Morey signing Asik is NOT sign of rebuilding

    Just admit that nobody wants to do deal with Morey


    You are using the rebuilding excuse as way to cover up Morey goofing

    Basically, we'll get it if it's within a certain range of picks. If they make the playoffs and the pick is too low, we won't get their pick that year but they'll still have the obligation to give us a pick falling within our desired range in the future.

    No, that's only how it works for the matching teams. For us the cap hit is the average number per year.

    we won't get it if it's too late of a pick..in other words, it'll probably fall around #10

    We don't have to pay that large amount all at the end of their contract!! It's the total amount of their contract divided by the number of years of the contract. It's set up so that the Knicks or the Bulls have to pay that large amount of their contract and not divided it over the number of years...

    I wonder how many times we are going to have to explain this to people? :confused::eek::grin::rolleyes:

    Ay least we now have a direction, clearly rebuilding. Undrafted free agent will probably be our pg if Lin is matched

    DeRozan sucks, Valancunas is not going to come in and set the world on fire from day one. Ross I think will be a stud. But this team is likely a lottery team agains next season.

    The longer the Raptors season goes the worse the pick will be.
