OG Anunoby open to leaving Knicks for...

- Over 4 months ago, prior to the Pascal Siakam trade, prior to the Raptors losing their draft pick, I hypothesized that OG Anunoby may not be as enamoured with the Knicks as initially reported.
Well, flash forward 4.5 months, and there are suddenly reports (via Jake Fischer who has been VERY right about OG related stuff) that Anunoby will consider options in free agency.
Which options? Philly. Which other options? Home.

OG getting more media coverage in 4 months than he's ever gotten in 7 years in Toronto. Love your idea Rob but aint happening.
I'm 50/50 with wanting OG back in Tor, but if your idea is OG will want to stay with NYK because he can get more media attention.. I think you are misunderstanding OG. OG doesn't care or want media coverage.
He doesn't care.
As much as I love OG as a Raptor, I'd be worried paying the amount he will be requesting and not to mention how injury prone OG is. I do like the idea of taking OG back just to piss off NYK fans.
Let’s also not forgot OG is one of the best defenders in the league, and we need that. He would easily make our team instantly better. He would make Scotties life so much easier
Ya , can’t worry about a potential injury. Raps would be smart to bring him home. He knows everything er need already. Did OG ever sell his Toronto home ? 👀👀
@@michaelpester532Does OG value being on a competitive team? Knicks fans love OG and really embraced him. OG introduced amazing chemistry with his Knicks teammates. Same concerns about his ability to stay healthy, but he’s an amazing player and NY loves him!!
There's no way the Knicks traded for him without being very confident they can sign an extension. And if you're skeptical of that, well then there's the fact that OG's Agent just happens to be the SON of the current GM of the Knicks, Leon Rose. My money says they had some sort of tacit agreement in place about extending him a long time ago.
Why the Hell you trade him if you want him back
Trading OG as a pawn to swipe IQ and RJ is so funny if this was Masai’s plan all along.
If Masai gets back OG, this would cement him as a grandmaster playing 4D chess with them.... sacrificed a rook and got back a knight, a bishop and that same rook again. 😀
Even if he doesn't get OG back. RJ is durable and a very good all around player. The Knicks thought they were getting off of a bad contract, but they were giving away a future All Star. IQ was considered the main asset the Knicks were giving up. Giving up an injury prone elite role player for two younger guys who will be excellent starters is a great deal.
Love OG, would love to him back, but I'd give it a 1% chance of happening
I’m like 10%
OG is the perfect piece for this team but the only problem is how would teams trust Masai
Context is pretty huge in this situation. Anyone really thinking about what's happening between the Raptors and Knicks knows why something like this would go down.
Congrats on 10K subscribers!!!!!
Here from day 1 ! congrats on 10K
Thank you!!
Og let's Scottie be Scottie. Scotties mileage improves...
If Raps wanted to give super injury prone OG a max contact they would have already
Frankly if OG is open to considering other teams in free agency then this is the first move the Raptors should be considering. If Scottie is your cornerstone, or even a cornerstone, then the franchise needs to make him happy. Bring back the friend he clearly missed on and off the court from the moment the OG trade was made. And if you're doing that, then the other move is at the draft. Do whatever you have to do to get the best player to fit with that pair in 2 years. That's likely Missi, but even Ware still works if they can get him to play hard enough. A lineup that includes Scottie, OG and Missi/Ware has plenty of defensive upside alongside IQ and RJ's potential offensive contribution.
I pray you’re right and he’d come back but I just really don’t see it happening unfortunately
It would be absolutely fantastic if Raptors brought OG back
He's exactly what we need but can we get it done? Thought our cap space will be in the 30s? Anyone know the exact amount we have?
Only thing is though. Og probably wants to win a chip soon ‘possibly’ which knicks are a hell of a lot closer than the raps are to do so so. Would you take a smaller amount to maybe win sooner rather than later?
They're not a helluva lot closer if Hartenstein and OG leave and Mitchell doesn't come.
If Brandon Ingram is available. I feel like we could pull off a deal with the assets we have.
I'd be willing to give up Jakob, a couple 1st rounders+.
Pelicans probably need a center next season. We can afford to wait a season or two to get ours.
I wonder… if Masai were to pull this off, how would IQ and RJ feel about it? IQ definitely, RJ perhaps, have some affection for their former team. Might they find this sleight of hand distasteful?
Not a chance (IMO). RJ and IQ are Raptors and getting one of the best defenders in the NBA would obviously be met with celebration
If they bring back OG, I will commit to five games next season 😀
Raps with OG , IQ, RJ, Scottie and Jak? 50plus games. 160 mill payroll for those 5? Worth it?
OG is just going to go where he can get the most $, he’s been saying that for years
OG is coming home
OG is always hurt
@ronaldclarke4844 2 needed pieces for 1. Kinda of says it all. I don't even think Masii was planning on trading OG until the Knicks threw that deal in his lap. I have a suspicion that they wanted to trade Siakam all along and resign OG. That deal was too good to pass up.
I have no doubt that og coming back from injury to play game 7 and making it worse would only make him more inclined to leave NY. Who knows whay pressure was put on him for that...
Yeah I don't see this happening at all but it would be the best raptors moment in years
Wouldn't he be the best player the raptors have ever signed in free agency anyway?
Easily.
Would love you to compare PWil vs Avdija, I feel like Avdija would cost more no?
Do you think OG can play PF? Him and Scottie would be great together. If Randle stays will OG get the touches he wants?
Yes. He can be a 4 full time easily.
OG can’t be trusted always hurt being available is a skill that OG doesn’t have
Many players get hurt , not many play Defense or even close to it.
Yea but he’s always hurt when you need him the most. You guys forgot OG never played a single game during our championship playoffs run. As a matter of fact he missed most of the 2nd half of that season.
i hope its true but i doubt it they would be investigated hardcore if it happend
If Raps pick up AD would he be 1 or 2?
Probably 1
Let just say, we bring him back. Does he fit with us? -> Yes. Perfectly.
Does he worth $40+m multi year contract? -> I dont know man... at least, he should stay healthy.
SB, IQ, RJB, JP, OG =
Sure I would open 2 play with the Raptors or any teams..5 years 200 million...
The Raptors got 2 great players for OG. Please consider this
Define great.
Was og achiuwa and Flynn. Barrett is not a team friendly contract and IQ is an RFA who they may either lose or overpay to keep him
LFG UMBERTO!!! 💪
OG coming back is at 0% chance. And really, why would we blow our cap space so we have OG back as a third or fourth wheel on this team? Last year's team minus Pascal but with Barrett and Quickley and now OG again, is no better in the end. That's my two cents
Why is it 0% chance?
0%?!
OG too injury prone
Isn’t there a rule that prevents him from being able to sign to Toronto after getting traded the previous year?
No
@@pensarebasketball true. Thought for sure there would be something to prevent teams from fleecing others like that. Has there been an instance similar where a high profile player gets dealt and re-ups with the previous team? Cuz this would be wild. I know it’s happened with waived players but it’s usually older vets. Anyways appreciate the great content dude!
That WNBA vote thing shows that Knicks have turned petty into a profession so that makes me want to see this happen even more, Doesn't even have to be on the Raptors just as long as he isn't on the Knicks roster in the future
Knicks haven't won a Championship since 1973 and still people hate the Knicks...Jealousy is a disease that turns into hate
Come back to Toronto and give him a contract. Raptors spend money!!!
This is not gonna happen
OG won’t leave Knicks
Why?
Don't think OG is in love with the Knicks. I could see him going to Philly to reunite with Nurse though. I'm not fully in with bringing OG back.. money and injury prone.. but OG going back to the Raps is just so much LOL it would be worth it.
@@patc8653 I think OG was ready to move on from raptors . Unlike pascal who didn’t want to leave . I love to see him back to see Knicks fans pissed off though🙂
He is not going anywhere...
Lmfaooooo
hahahaha this is not happening guys. He's not coming back. More money and less taxes can be found outside of Canada.
Let him walk. He barely plays
45w
35 to 40 wins with OG rather have Deni Avdija
I love Deni but wow that's a big gap.
