Official 2016-2017 NBA Season Thread - NBA rules Chris Bosh has a career ending injury

[QU!K]

I like the trade, Raptors were too soft inside

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

 
Yeah cuz Ibaka was going to leave in FA anyways.

I wonder if they could have gotten a better package then what the Raptors gave up

The teams that come to mind would have been Houston or Cleveland but I don't know what exactly either of them could have given realistically 

 

[awwsome]

Orlando is a mess but shouts to Toronto for going for it.

ibaka soft though

hed rather shoot from the outside than bang in the paint

 

[essential1]

Smart of Orlando to get something for Ibaka when they knew he wasn't coming back.

But on the whole a net negative, why the hell would you trade all that for Ibaka when he wasn't putting you over the top and a good chance you couldn't keep him.

This is why bad teams stay bad. Good job Orlando.

They're moves have been horrible.

But in regards to just this move. What is so bad? Ibaka was leaving...point blank...

Why lose his for nothing?

why doesnt melo go to DC 

 

[Ja's 2¢]

We shouldnt have gone after ibaka in the first place. If management really wanted dipo gone, they could have waited until the right offer came.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Remember like 2 years ago when I tried to tell y'all the magic rebuild was going nowhere?

Apology accepted

Bingo. This and that Tobias deal just screams incompetence. Just glad they didn't **** up today.

 

[awwsome]

Orlando used their assets and cap to get two players in Bismack and Serge that play the same position as their lottery pick with most potential and their best offensive player.

**** never made sense from the gate.

 

[bballkid11]

Wonder who else makes some moves to counter the Ibaka move.

not just that but they gave jeff green 15 mil (iirc)

all the while having AG on the roster

Boston and Washington

 

[firstclass]

Speaking of Orlando how's Payton performing

 

[jjs07]

why doesnt melo go to DC 

Why would the Wizards want him? Wizards have one of the best starting 5's in the NBA. It's the bench that needs help. On top of it all, can't have someone on the floor who completely stops ball movement to ISO.

 

[bhzmafia14]

Mister PER is back

 

[abubakr shaheed]

Boston and Washington

taj and (mcdermot or niko) to wizards
butler to celtics

 

[Moheezy]

Now that the Raps have Serge, they need to make another move for strengthen their wing positions. Losing Ross makes their backcourt incredibly thin.

Sully should definitely be on the market. they should trade a combination or Siakam, Sully, Poeltl, and Caboclo for a wing. Is Will Barton still available?

Even Tim Fizer will be an upgrade.

 

[QU!K]

Raptors have norman powwell, he's under size but underrated

He will fill Tross void fine

 

[ill steelo]

Speaking of Orlando how's Payton performing

He's ranged from average to mediocre and will continue to do so until he learns how to shoot.
