With what GSW is going thru, I wouldn't be surprised if they try for Davis for a one year rental. GSW weak link now is inside scoring.

Possibly package Draymond, Iggy, and some young talent.

That is possible if Cousins do not resign

Canadian here. Other than 3 hockey Olympic Golds, since the 90's jays and Montreal...Canada got to celebrate a major professional sports championship since 93...I am not a huge hoops fan...but I jumped on the Raptor bandwagon, and I can tell you Canada had one heck of great mostly peaceful, well-behaved celebration...Thank you Raptors. I am now a 100% Raptor fan ... I was 50/50 before.

I am not watching that video. Do not judge a fanbase based on the few idiots and likely drunk idiots...Toronto did well...very few problems in the celebrations...and these celebrations all over Canada. I guess what I was saying is...we appreciate the Raptors...we get so few champions these days...so sometimes its nice once in a while. I am a proud Canadian...Than you Raptors...

I like the Raptors; tough, hard-nosed squad.

I think Ingram has top 15 potential. He is guy that is going to be interesting to see what he is once his game develops. That whole young core could be toxic waste though after the Lebron/ Rich Paul crap show this year. They seemed pretty broken after the trade deadline.

Ingram is the only legit chip I think they have outside. Hart is a nice 3D role that has some value, but not a ton because those are a dime a dozen. Kuzma would be a nice Marcus Morris type bench scorer. But he would get exposed defensively in rhe playoffs. He is a guy you want putting up shots for 20-25 minutes a game. Ball has blossomed defensively, so thats something. But like you his game is always going to limited offensively. FT shooting is the true guage of shooting ability. And he is inexplicably horrid. He has actually gotten worse. And he isnt a Ben Simmons that be an impact player without shooting ability
Lakers are a mess. Any top player who goes there doesn't have his head on straight.

But you're saying all of our fans are like that video? Didnt GSW fans cheer the Kawhi injury?

You can’t be that serious or sensitive are you?

Beyond that, got proof Dub fans were cheering Khawi’s injury (I’m assuming you meant when he was with the Spurs)?

Because there’s definite proof Raptor fans were cheering the second KD went down.

Oh there is proof. All over the internet when he was with the spurs. Judging an entire fan base on a few idiots is really awesome though. I should call you Stephen A with that attitude. Didnt someone get shot at a raiders game not to long ago? So all Raiders fans are psychopaths? No of course not.

Look. The fact of the matter is a lot of fans of the Raptors became fans 3 weeks ago. Those are the fans that never watched ball or watch sports religiously to understand you dont cheer an injury of any magnitude, and yes it was a disgusting thing to do which I dont condone. However every fanbase has fans that real fans are disgusted with. Imagine living in Philly? Lol. I've been a fan of the Raptors since 95 and have never once cheered an injury in any sport. Let's not forget here that Dubs fans booed the canadian anthem in retaliation to the Durant cheers. Let's consider the disgusting behaviour even.

There’s the video. Now, shut up.

Let me know where I said the video was representative of all Raptor fans.

I believe one reason GS lost was due to living by the 3 pointer. I think it finally caught up w/ them. Yes, after 3 championships, I know. However, they finally came up against a team who could both score and play nasty D

I'm hoping this flurry of 3 point shooting comes to an end. Makes the game boring.

I am an admitted casual basketball fan, just to be clear.

I dont need to shut up. We won the championship. Gsw fans should take it easy with the excuses though.

You wanna stack your starting 5 against the rest of the league? No problem. The deeper better team will win when injuries happen.

Have a good day sir

You’ve been shut up.

Where’s your evidence that’s “all over the internet.”

Enjoy the Championship with an asterisk, lol.

Davis to the Lakers for Ingram, Ball, Hart and three first round picks, including the #4 overall

That is a lot to give up for Davis! Pelicans got the better trade, Davis is always hurt so it will probably end up being a bad trade by Lakers
