I'd just ride Derozan and Lowry until the wheels fall off. Especially with GS at it's peak right now. Rebuild in two years. Not one year. So ride off Derozan/Lowry for two years instead of going for it with Kawhi were at least one year? Come on man, what are you even saying here? This isn't hard to understand, and they didn't even give up one of their better young players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you set on rebuilding, you start the process as soon as possible. Its crazy to me that people want to ride derozan and lowry out to the end. When casey was fired everybody was screaming its not him its lowry and derozan. So they got rid of one. For one year of a guy trying to get a max contract next year.

JBURGE Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Living almost my entire life in the GTA, I feel so bad for Demar. No other face of the franchise ever embraced Toronto the way he did. Funny that Lowry wanted to go to the Spurs last off-season and now Demar is sent there lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you said, San Antonio's front office has really made some poor decisions over the last year. I would say LA, Philadelphia, and Boston should be embarrassed, but you just never know what San Antonio wanted. If they wanted star power then DeRozan is the best player (at least for 1 season) any of these teams was offering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just getting to the Finals is a huge accomplishment and something Toronto has never done, and a healthy Leonard gives them a shot. If all you have to give up for a potential top 5 player is a significantly worse player, a back-up big man, and a heavily protected 1st, then you make that trade 100/100 times regardless of the circumstances.

I don’t see any way SA could have gotten more, especially with 0 leverage. I think it’s a job well done by their FO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also more than what Cousins and Butler went for when you consider the caliber of player DeRozan is right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 Man that’s not a very good deal down the Spurs. Reminds me of the PG trade where the pacers seemed to send him to OKC just to stick it to the lakers for not offering more. Derozan about to be an MVP candidate.

Dang trade the GOAT Raptor that has embraced the city for a malcontent that doesn't want to even be there, and is gone in a year. Hopefully KL doesn't pull a Vince Carter. He won't if he wants his money, but it would be funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
