@@thewaraichreport well the raptors dont have an open 2 way contract. its likely masai just offered koloko a chance to compete for a roster spot at training camp. i dont think they were gonna cut chomche or brandon carlson. so it was likely cutting dj carlton which the raptors really dont have alot of depth at so they let koloko go. koloko could defend and block shots, but they likely saw he couldnt shoot or pass well still so didnt cut dj carlson. to fit in darkos system you have to be able to ball handle and shoot the 3 and pass. koloko couldnt do any of that. boucher can shoot the 3 but cant ball handle or pass so he isnt being played. chomche likely already better than koloko in that he can ball handle, pass, play defence, block shots and shoot the 3. so they may have thought too many chefs when chomche is already better.
I've watched quite a few of your videos. They're always organized and informative and I enjoy them. But something i haven't seen before...when you said if the Clippers steal another one of our players you were going to lose it, I laughed right out loud. Amazing personal touch. Scared the heck out of my cat. Well done.
@@thewaraichreport we have to see. realistically, koloko likely get the most playing time on the raptors. lakers have 4 centers so he wont get a guaranteed contract but just an invite to come play at training camp. also lakers will likely offer the minimum they can with no guarantees being over the luxury tax and he will likely get the least amount of playing time on lakers.
potential is the word here. yes, masai is high on him, but he' 100% a project. let's hope they get him for the right price, and then let's give him some time, hope for the best and then we'll know if he can even hang in the league
there is no right price, its either the full vet min for his years, or lakers probably offer 1 milion a year for 4 years with no guarantees. who ever offers him the most with most playing time will get him.
who ever gets koloko will be guaranteeing him a roster spot with alot of guaranteed playing time, in addition likely the full vet min and fully guaranteed contract. thats not the lakers or other teams in luxury tax that are playoff teams. he wont get playing time on playoff teams. also lakers have 4 centers.
Raptors can offer him the most Cash.. If they let him get away would be sad. Wake up Masai. This was a Raptors asset... Just outbid everyone elsewhere. Worst case you have a lot of asset at Centre.. Atleast lets not lose him for nothing.. We gave up a first round pick for him..

dam koloko signed with lakers
@@giovanni-ed7zqreally sucks but it is what it is
@@thewaraichreport i think masai just offered him a chance to compete for a roster spot at training camp, where lakers gave him a 1 year contract.
@@giovanni-ed7zq Lakers signed him to a 2 way contract.

Wish him all the best, wherever he goes.

@JeffBeardwood-pv6ti thanks man and yea Clippers are too much.

It is very difficult to miss over a year at his age and experience and be back ready to contribute right away
Thats true it'll take him some time to get in game shape.

If Raptors dont get Koloko I'm gonna cry. If Raptors do get Koloko I'm gonna cry.
I’m coo-coo for koloko
I hope he signs with TO. I've been waiting for him to get back. He'd solve a LOT of issues for us.
Kudos to you for hammering these out! Much respect.
@@danmarchuk3617 thank you!
It would ve wrong for him to sign with anyone, but the Raptors.
i hope i'm wrong but i don't see a world where he doesn't sign in LA. and that is going to hurt so much.
@@juju31897 agreed more opportunities there
I heard he just signed with the lakers
Unfortunately he did
we should try and get him back we never really got to see what he could do
Lakers are frontrunners, Koloko is represented by Klutch. If LBJ wants Koloko then he will be a Lakers player.
who ever gets koloko will be guaranteeing him a roster spot with alot of guaranteed playing time, in addition likely the full vet min and fully guaranteed contract. thats not the lakers or other teams in luxury tax that are playoff teams. he wont get playing time on playoff teams. also lakers have 4 centers.
koloko will go to a team that has no back up center, because it means he gets the most playing time. kelly olynyk is also not a center.
@@giovanni-ed7zq Lakers just agreed to a two-way deal with him as per Shams.

All the reports say the Lakers are the front runners 😆
the raptors aren't front runners
@@Doggy-i6l they are, one of 4 teams he's likely to sign with
I think he’s overrated
