Raptors saved a lot of teams.

If wisely is setting in on fire like a car during the Watts riot, absolutely.

 

[buc em]

I hope the Lakers keep on signing mediocre players that'll improve them just enough to get them outside of the top 3 picks next year

 

[EddieDoyers]

DeMar DeRozan's deal with Toronto is expected to be for five years, but the Raptors have other moving pieces so his $$ is unclear.

Dwight in a strip club VIP room right now doing push ups with a Moët stained T-shirt ready to pay off all of his baby mommas.


All these guys better be so thankful for these TV deals.

From Dwight to Hibbert to Mozgov.  Wonder what scrub big man they'll pay next.  Could be a good 30 for 30

DeMar cashed out

 

[oldhotdogwater]

The fact that they just saw how trash Hibbert is and went and got the Russian version of him for 65 million is beyond all logical comprehension.

I know Dwight and his agent are popping bottles right now.

Timmy is wayy better

I'm just saying, you could do better.

 

[SneakerProSr.]

DeMar gotta pay dem Canadian taxes though.

 

[EddieDoyers]

KD gotta get at least 30 mil a year now

I think it's great seeing young black men getting paid like Beal/DeRozan because that's a beautiful thing especially from where they come from.


I'm only speaking from a strategic standpoint when I say the deals are trash.

 

[EddieDoyers]

Full max was $153 ... Raps save about $2.5-million/year in cap space going forward; DeRozan gets very, very rich. https://t.co/BVLIhBLGAA
