    Not off topic at all. No question the Toronto Raptors have done a good job. Lots of things fell into place and they had some luck. The combination is very special.

    Their GM refused to play safe. Took some bold risks . Could have blown up in his face ...
    Are the Blazers in the same positions? Aren't we playing it "too safe"?
    Let's face it, when you have been a loser for 40 years ... what's the point of playing it safe?
    Do the Blazers need to rethink their strategy ... given the Durant injury? Should we risk it all?But we need a GM who has the guts to do it ...

    Interesting response.
    Even more so with a thread on the front page of this site about Olshey throwing anything and everything at KP to get PG.
    If he did it there who else has he also tried to get?
    Is he doing everything he can to get more this summer?
    Also maybe not so much a loser for 40 years?
    Just sayin.

    I think SA was as instrumental in engineering that trade as the Raps GM. Spurs wanted Leonard east and the key player received.

    I’m in NYC right now and just saw Melo walk by. Don’t think he will be joining the Warriors tonight.
