    Yet they want to trade FVF and Trent, their two smallest dudes, more than anyone.

    I'll be SHOCKED if Ant is on the Raptors next year, let alone this year.

    Got the foul changed from Watford to Grant. Whatever coach is in charge of challenging isn't getting his bonus tonight.

    Don't they have a guy who looks for stuff like that so challenges are used judiciously?

    Naw I don’t say that shit anymore. Dame is a beast. I was letting off my frustrations on the wrong person. If anything he deserves better than this organization

    Yeah, it will be surprising if Ant is on 1 specific team out of the 29 that he isn't under contract with. At the same time, the all-nba player that I think is the most likely for us to get is Siakam and I don't see us getting him without Ant being included both for talent and salary matching purposes. So again, if things go the way I think is ideal... I would be shocked but at the same time...

    Actually it was a successful challenge, they just changed who the foul was on. Since it was a challenge on the foul being on Watford.

    Learn the game, then post.

    Technically it is a successful challenge.

    Practically it was a total failure.

    I'll be shocked if Ant is on one of the other 29 teams next season, let alone this season. Better?

    Sharpe looking exactly like Hart will be a problem if/when Hart returns in a Blazer uniform.

    If anything he deserves better from this organization. The man wants to be here, so he deserves to be here. Now if you can grasp that then you can move on to what he deserves around him on this roster... we don't have it right now and the front office should be doing what they can to get the right pieces around him.

    Yeah, that means you think that Cronin is a replay of Olshey. Ant and Dame very obviously are less than the sum of their parts but there is no reason at this point to doubt your assertion that Ant will still be here, with Dame, to start the 2023-34 season.

    Yeah, they challenged the call against Watford. It was successful because the call against Watford was changed.

    We challenged the ruling on the court that it was a block foul on Watford. That challenge was ruled "Successful" though during the replay they assessed a foul on Grant.
