Ye Olde Mailbag: Some Kyrie Irving, Raptors road trip minutia and no crazy trade proposals
Another solid week of questions and no crazy ones about possible trades and, from the bottom of my heart, I thank you for that.-Tony Kornheiser called Kyrie Irving, and I quote, the"worst teammate of all time.
Is it accurate to assume, reading Thursday’s Raptors Insider that you think the team should not trade VanVleet or Trent in the coming days? Does this hold true as well for the other guards on the team? And I trust Masai not to do anything as foolish as trading for Kyrie Irving, even if the deal was Irving for Flynn.
I don’t think Brooks is a dirty player by any stretch but he does go right to the border all the time. And the Grizzlies are a, um, confident group that’s really done nothing so I can see how that would rankle other teams and players.During the last couple of seasons I’ve thought what the Raptors were missing was a big guy who could dominate in the paint. Someone like Serge Ibaka, Marc Gasol, or Jonas Valanciunas.
The Raptors are the kingmakers at this deadline in an ultra competitive playoff picture and I think it’s time to take one step back.Thank You,A: I would presume in a deal that would bring back multiple players, one or two would help and stick around but another may just be cap ballast and eventually be waived. But it’s impossible to guess right now what any actual transaction would like.
3) Kyrie wants a trade? Irving causing trouble with the Nets, who could've predicted that? Some are saying it's justified as the team allegedly tied his deal to winning a championship. For me, that is a reasonable clause Your two cents ...A: It was a hard trip, I won’t kid you. Raptors stand pat on OG, FVV and Pascal at deadline but trade Trent Jr and a second round pick to Spurs in three-team deal that brings back Poeltl.
