Dorky question. The Raptors can put out a l CMB, Graves, Barnes, Leonard,Shead lineup. 5 wild deflection beasts What five players would you and John select for your all-time deflection/defensive pest team? Bonus points for deep cuts

It's hideous but the solarium looks cool and reminds me of Clue (movie, book and general concept)

The entire Clippers/Kawhi thing is very 2026. If you’re rich, you can (apparently) do whatever you want. If you’re involved in a scandal, it might even advance your career. If you’re the press, you’ll get vilified for exposing it.

It's definitely going to feel weird if he's not traded!

I find it absolutely insane that the Raptors would tie their entire offseason to this scandal. What a mess

I've been saying it for weeks but I do not think Kawhi will be returning to Toronto. This year at least

His game reflects this. Kind of no nonsense old school kind of vibe

Toronto here. The first day they came the whole world was orange. Never seen anything like it

I hear that it sounds like that timeframe should be right. But isn't it reactionary to have an opinion on an investigation by a world class organization where we have literally zero info? These guys will shut down the entire league to maintain the CBA. Feels like they should follow through?

Counter point: if you're investigating foul doings of one of the richest men on the planet, it's going to take a long time. A pretty common crime drama trope is investigators being shortchanged larger crimes because the mayor wants guns on the table.

To be fair to draft evaluators, I think most were projecting him to be capable of blocking players 5-7 and under

You are right. :) Nanaimo & Arby's S-Tier

Matt McCready @mattmc.bsky.social · 08/07/2026
But think of where we'd be without him and Woj. We'd all have to get our news 45 seconds later and the draft wouldn't be ruined by those awful in the moment reactions of glee

There's an undercurrent to shit on every change in the league no matter what. If you reversed it and the L always took one free throw to equal the basket, then the NBA announced they were going to double or triple the amount of FTs to equal that basket, we'd justifiably call it a time waster.

We'll see on Ja, you could be right. I did think the Grant contract is one of the worst in the league, but looking back he had a bounce back year. The year before he was one of the worst players in the league when he shot 37 percent
010
Matt McCready @mattmc.bsky.social · 29/06/2026
I agree on all their other moves but saving five million dollars and moving from Ja (clearly a problem and always injured) to Jeremi Grant (healthy but bad). Unless you're a bug Kris Murray booster I mean, I'd be pretty stoked if the Raps traded Poeltl and Dick for Ja

No better example than his leg last year :)

But I also would have gone banana ape if Vince came back so maybe I'm in the minority when it comes to sports bitterness

Matt McCready @mattmc.bsky.social · 29/06/2026
I think it's awesome. Dude played on one leg throughout the semis and finals and delivered when it counted. Truly one of the greats in Toronto sports history. Love it.

I remember when the Raps used to be proactive about this kind of stuff with Greivas and Rudy Gay. Memories!

I'd be cheering for them to resign Sergei Berezin if he wasn't 54 years old and dead

Overlooking the swaps in the new draft environment was definitely part of Minnesota's thinking.

Matt McCready @mattmc.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
There's also a pretty easy argument to make that Naz Reid is a better playoff performer to LaMelo. At the very least he's undoubtedly more proven

Matt McCready @mattmc.bsky.social · 25/06/2026
Naz Reid also has considerable value and is a proven playoff performer

Agreed on all counts cheers

I get what you're saying, but I do think in comparing the players it's worth pointing out that Thomas had one of the lowest assist rate sof any guard ever taken in the first round. And while Acuff is a score first guard, he had an obscenely good A/T ratio and is generally a very capable general

I agree that Turner is a way better fit, is a better player and healthier. But I'd rather focus on surrounding CMB and Scottie with younger talent. I don't know if Turner makes this team even a second round squad, let alone a championship contender. Salary dumping Dick would help

Couldn't agree more. Not big on drafting someone who will be 23 by the start of the season

He reminds me a LOT of Mogbo. Compare their stats/size/combine numbers etc they are CRAZY similar. Zuby is 30 pounds heavier. That will help

To be fair, he's probably one of the ten best shooters in NBA history

Yeah, Jordan played five seasons without Pippen and never got past the first round in any of them but that is rarely brought up

I think the NBA incredibly strong ring culture has softened my thoughts on 'only the championship matters' Each game is a thing worth celebrating. Who cares

Matt McCready @mattmc.bsky.social · 10/06/2026
Counterpoint: very cool ring and they're probably not going to make a run that deep for a couple decades so why not have fun

I'll say this about the Thunder, there are a lot of smart basketball minds out there that hate the way they play, but every single dumb basketball person I talk to hates the way they play.

Yeah Crawford is good! I rarely like three person booths but he's very understated and picks his spots. Not sure if he has the energy to be that good on a two person team but maybe! For all his faults Reggie has good energy. Him talking through bug plays was awful and yeah he's loudly wrong a lot

Multiple consecutive plays of awesome shot making by OKC with a crowd going insane. Miller: 45 second rant about how OKC needs to attack more in transition. Revisiting the same points he's made five times. Zero recognition or appreciation of the moment. He's the best.
