OG has a player option next year so I’d think if there’s no extension by the deadline you have to move him, don’t want to risk losing him for nothing like FVV
They need to know if OG is gonna re sign next yr. Hes young enough and fits well enough w the team that he’s fine to keep. If he doesn’t say he’s gonna re sign, if there’s any doubt, you move him. You can likely get two good assets and prolly a 3rd decent one for him. For Siakam it won’t be as good, prolly looking at like one pick and one young guy? Like IND for Buddy (he prolly goes to a 3rd team), McConnell, Mathurin, and one 1st. Something like that. The $ is tough w ATL. It’d have to be Hunter, Patty, prolly AJ Griffin, then whatever other filler…and maybe they get a pick swap in like 2029 out of it also. Also would see what I can get for Trent. Even if it’s a few 2nds I’d take it, you’re not re signing him. They have to pick a direction. That Poeltl trade was just so beyond awful man. T6 protected pick for an expiring deal. At least if it was maybe T10 protected in ‘24 and T8 in ‘25, they’d have more options. You can tank and make sure you get a T10 pick p easily. If they moved Siakam and GTJr they’d end up with a T10 pick. But getting to T6 is reallyyyy hard. You need the 2nd worst record to guarantee it, 3rd worst to be 93%. 4th worst is 81%. After that it gets really dicey. Vs T10, you’re 80% to keep it at 10, and at 9 you’re 97%. It’s way easier to get to 9-10 than the bottom 5 lol. TOR is literally at 10 right now.
They gotta update his height, he’s supposed to be 6’9.. he’s listed as 6’7 but a lot of other sites and raptors summer league during his rookie szn had him listed as 6’9. And Scottie himself always refers to himself as 6’9 as well as coaches
As a raptors fan I actually think that to improve the raptors team in real life they need a good point guard that’s good in the starting lineup or even off the bench. Maybe just get your pick from the spurs back because we can draft a good point guard that way
As a raptors fan that Siakam trade gives me nightmares. If Dejounte Murray is worth 3 FRP, & Rudy worth 5 FRP, then Pascal is worth 3 FRP Easily hahaha
It’s just a video game etc…not criticizing you, love your vids. Just educating ppl. OG turned down 4/107M extension this offseason. You were saying you hoped you could get him for 25/yr. I can’t fathom OG getting less than like…4/130 bare minimum. Jerami Grant got 5/160 so he’s not taking
Why dont you ever turn down trade frequency or turn on trade approval? You go for realism in your rebuilds but have these trades that would never happen like Jaylen Brown for Curry happening
Pascal Siakam is so overrated and why the Raptors are in a struggle. Dude is overpaid averaging 21 a game. Every time I head his name, I know he's going to be rated higher than he actually is.
