    toronto got the better end of the deal. DeRozan doesn't have much left would end up having to amnesty him at some point, this case they got one of the best in the game for a year and danny green. This was a steal, im sure spurs couldve got more value from a western team

    Since you guys are clueless I will inform you. Toronto is dead meat and the Pistons are the team to beat.

    Home fans always complain they got the short end of the stick,but the Raptors did good in this trade.

    Moved a player they were shopping around,he could only get them so far,theirs risk with Leonard for sure,but christ they got a game changer that they could have desperately used against Cleveland.

    Did I mention both Leonard and green was all nba defensive team in 2017? Instantly Toronto defense got better

    Raptors still get bounced in the playoffs next year..

    Spurs if lucky might make the playoffs as an eighth seed if Pop coaches his asss off...

    Wouldn't be so quick to count out the Raps if Leonard and Green come to play,they'll be a tough out.

    Guys don’t understand - raptors lose in the playoff because they don’t have perimeter defense - now they just added 2 elite ones ?

    They still aren't gonna beat the Warriors.. Like I said they get bounced in the playoffs...

    Still not enough with just Leonard coming off an injury and a year out, Green who is on the decline and Lowery.. Not gonna happen Packerd.. Raptors if lucky go deep into the playoffs.. Not sure they can even beat the Lakers or Houston...

    Houston will take a tremendous hit - there losing all there defensive guys - and going back to giving zero fcks about defense

    Oh youre probably right about the Warriors,I think their fans would just be happy getting to their first Final,the rest would be gravy.

    I don't reckon the Lakers will get their this year,those outright odds are glaring,I think their like 10/1 at Bet365 or close to that,Rockets would beat the Raps if they played no doubt,but im curious if they lose Capella,how that will effect the Team in the Playoffs

    Lakers have some ballers on the rise though.. We'll see. This might be a throw away season for the Lakers and Lebron depending on how well the team performs early on..

    Lakers and Lebron still need another super star player I believe.. They didn't get that player yet, but getting Lebron is a good start for sure.....

    I think I can somewhat answer that, raps fans are fragile in that the team just can't sign big names/talent. Finally they got a guy last year that says he will commit a bit more long term annnnnnnd 1 year later see u later.

    Lebron bet on kyrie Irving and it work out? He’s betting on Ingram which I believe will be a superstar

    If they all perform well then maybe 4th seed is a legit prediction with this current Laker roster... Players now will step up with Lebron now.. New additions help.. Core young players will probably have their best year next year...

    So this Laker team should be good I think... Remember the Lakers were balling at the end of last season also even without Lebron and company joining in this off season....

    Skinny and all bones.. Will get muscled and probably will be injury prone.. Needs to put on a few pounds and try and fill out.. Ingram was balling last year.. A real slasher to the basket though...

    Ingram does have a little KD in him for sure.. Might be a better slasher to the hole... He doesn't have the KD shooting touch yet though..

    People don’t understand how much impact Lebron has on a team ? He’s the only player ever in the NBA that can do this ... lakers will win 20 plus more games
