ToT-cast: Sorting Through Toronto Raptors Rumours at the Trade Deadline

Chris Okrainetz and Ryan Greco sort through all the Toronto Raptors rumours as we approach the NBA Trade Deadline. We open up the show by briefly sharing our thoughts on the NBA All-Star Game (0:15), and then jump right into trade discussions by wondering if the Raptors should go all in (2:30). We then break down the Raptors' roster from both a financial and a trade value standpoint (3:44). From there we share some love for Raptors general manager Masai Ujiri, where we gently remind fans that he operates a very tight ship and how the rumours we usually hear about him and the Raptors are often false (7:20). [recentposts align="right" thiscategory="no"] We then look at who the Raptors could take back in a trade (9:18), discuss the idea of acquiring a package from the Atlanta Hawks that includes Al Horford (10:05), share our thoughts on the Markieff Morris and Thaddeus Young rumours (16:38), why the Raptors should tailor any trade they make to compete with the Cavs (24:14), and Chris discusses why he believes Terrence Jones is the best option for Toronto (26:30). We close the show out by discussing teams that can affect the Raptors at the deadline (29:07), why Kyle Lowry and DeMar DeRozan have a chance to create an impact on Toronto basketball that could exceed Vince Carter (35:04), and of course, what would it take to acquire VC at the deadline (35:56).
