I think this video is necessary (if not crucial) for the many young fans and fellow RUclipsrs (who post daily and historically terrible content) of the franchise who can't grasp some of the most dogsh!t seasons that we had in the past and the number of promising players we had that front office couldn't capitalize on only for the fanbase watch them thrive elsewhere. Rebuilds take time and one thing I can say is that compared to the last two seasons, as the losses pile up, at least guys are putting in effort - they are simply too raw and inexperienced, so these will take time. Pairing these guys with a top 3-4 pick, that's going to be able to contribute at least one end of the court from day one and watching them grow will be fantastic.
I feel like 2022 okc was in a much better situation than the raps right now. Pg trade gave them so many more picks, and shai was better than scottie and rj is right now. Shai looked like a future superstar, and to put it simply scottie doesnt look like hes on the same level. They had more draft capital and a better young core.
You’re right that the OKC Thunder got a massive payday from that PG trade and that Shai is one of the best players in recent memory, but the blueprint they’ve offered: be bad, collect picks, evaluate young players and take on bad contracts is still a sensible path to take. The Magic are a team that’s followed that model as well.
Darko Rajaković has become too friendly and comfortable with the players it’s not about competition but rather we have a good game. I believe we should bring back Adrian Griffin because he has some good father figure knowledge that isn’t there to be friends but rather mentor. Then we must trade at least 4 players need to go starting with Davion Mitchell, Kelly Olynyk, Chris Boucher and Bruce Brown. Jakob Poeltl already made the ultimate sacrifice for our 2019 championship so I would keep him for now.
Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, these videos require a lot of time to create, and the video segments with highlights require extra time to add. As a result the talking head segments are here to stay. Hope you understand!

@@canadianchungus701 💯! Thank you Canadian Chungus. We’ll be laughing once the Raptors secure a top player in the coming draft!
Best thumbnail thus far.
@@Lahym357 thank you!
I like your new look! Good content as always. I agree we are in a rebuilding phase, I just wish it wasn’t so painful.
I hear you. It’s tough to watch players you like lose 11 games in a row! They have a chance to end that streak tonight.
That was my comment. Thank you so much, this is a great improvement. Feels authentic to your brand and is a cool style. I feel heard :D
Thanks for the suggestion!
Raptors fans have all been spoiled by almost a decade of playoff contention. Dynasties aren’t built in a day. Trust the process.
💯💯💯
Hahaha I'm literally watching this just before I go to sleep, you hit the nail on the head mate
Hope I gave your eyes a bit of relief!

If we are going to keep losing we might as well start putting chomche in the games and get him some reps in the nba😊
Trade the vets first, and I’m down with that plan.
@RaptorsReport for sure brother
Darko and Barnes driving the ship to China.

Trade the uncs after they maximize their trade value
We need an unc-free 2025! (Maybe Jak can stay)
use more pics of players and less face lol no offence its just more engaging
