ok! after some checking out the state of things NBA this is my conclusion
currently the Raptors are the fourth best team in the east....headed by
Milwaukee #1
Brooklyn #2
Orlando #3
it is also possible that Boston and Indiana are ahead of the Raptors and they are really #6 in the east. and I have not listed Philly who appear also to have team/leadership problems. I suspect their problem if coaching but its too late to change their coach this year
why do I judge the Raps so low..because we have a virtually new team on the floor and there is no organized continuity on the floor, a figure that leads the team, can get it out of tight spots to win close games etc
that figure should have been K Leonard but he doe not care about that. he is here to try in the playoffs and he is supposedly saving himself for that by playing one game on and one off...50% of the schedule. that's right..Leonard is playing 50% of Toronto's game schedule
Kawhi Leonard was born on the 29 of June 1991. he is all of 27 years of age...3 years younger than Jeremy Lin, 6 years younger than Gasol, 5 years younger than Kyle Lowery. all these players play every Raptor game...but not Leonard.
I don't see how that is in Raptors best interest. Leonard is a bloody selfish player, thinks only of himself. he as done well this year when he plays but he provides no leadership for the Raptors
the Milwaukee Bucks are far and away the best east team. the Raptors have no one like Giannis who has evolved into a sound leader, who plays every game for the Bucks, making for a very solid team.
the Raps beat the Bucks their first 2 games. the Bucks won the last one. but the way the season has developed the Raptors will not beat the Bucks again this year. the Bucks will kill the Raps from now on
I expect the Brooklyn Nets to emerge strongly come the play offs and could quite well meet the Bucks in the finals given the problems now obvious about the Raptors, Boston, Philly..and the loss of Oladipo in Indiana
Masai made a mistake going for Leonard..and he shud stop trying to recruit him long term for Toronto. it is best to allow Leonard to move on ..to go wherever he wishes as long as he does not stay in Toronto.
Leonard is a very talented player..one of the best in the NBA. but it is to get him to play, to make him happy so that he would want to play full out for any dam team.
Leonard looks like an emotionally conflicted kind of fellow whom it is best to leave along..not to worry about regardless of his talent. it is too expensive trying to get his talent out of him.
write of the Raps this year..I have. our season is done. 6 other east teams have better leadership,and are more cohesive teams than the Raptors at this point. Milwaukee will beat the Raps for sure. but if Boston, Philly, Indiana, Brooklyn, Orlando flow into the playoffs, the raps will be early playoff toast

you have to have a dam team..and Masai traded away the Raptors team.
I don't care ho much better Gasol is than than Valancunis I would not have made that trade. Valancunis is a Raptor, a hard trier, played for the team, is young and full of spirit and energy. we lost a major part of the team there
we lost an even bigger part of the team with the trade of DeRozan. we had to complement Derozan and Lowry..not to break them up. we had to get a finisher..a quality finisher. we did not have to trade a real standup team man for one who plays every other night.
Masai made a lousy deal and I am getting fed up of him too. I thought he was much smarter than that. his success is prolly getting to his head.
it appears Masai got very emotional at the end of last season, fired Casey precipitously, and began to gut the team like an angry man..a man who had suddenly lost his professionalism and was moving on emotion.
he got rid of the heart of the dam team, 100 per center DeRozan, and substituted him with 50 per center Leonard..a player whom the more I see of him the less I like him.
listen! I consider the long time head coach of the Spur, Greg Popovich a truly brilliant basketball man. Pops is not going to do much to harm his players especially one like Leonard, who is clearly a brilliant player. Pops would want to get the best out of him so that he could continue winning championships
now that I have seen Leonard first hand I want to know Pops side of that story. Pops simply could not have been totally wrong there...some of it has to do with Leonard too given the guy I see here in Toronto
and why the eff would Masai make such a deal..to allow Leonard to play just half of the Raptors games? is Masai paying Leonard half salary?

this is real crap..
LeBron plays all the Laker games
Kevin Durant plays all the Warriors games
that is what all the stars do..why not Leonard?
Masai is going to have to ansah a lot of questions at the end of this season. he has lost a lot in my estimation
he as a whole bunch of bums he must let go at the end of the season. I hope he catches himself and returns to sanity and builds properly once again.
I mean I was asking questions of Leonard long before Masai traded for him. that was a sooprise to me..that trade. I never thought Masai would go for him. but he did and so I pulled back on Leonard thinking that Masai knew what I did not know given that he is GM and all that
but it turns out that I knew and Masai did not. and to coddle Leonard and try to get him to stay in Toronto he let him play only half the games. see what I mean! you cant do that. situations like that only get worse.
watch what happens when Leonard gets to one of the California teams. he will have to play every dam game or they wont sign him. if they think he is not fit enough to play every game they wont sing him at all.
if Doc Rivers signs Leonard to a deal like he has here his owner would fiyah him. same with Magic Johnson
