This is very possible. Hield, Mathurin, Toppin and 2 future first round picks for Siakam enough ? Feels like Mathurin would be the prize for them as they need a higher potential shooter. Hield would have to be included for salary purposes. But they could use him too. Quickley, Mathurin, Barrett, Barnes and Poeltl starting 5 with Hield and Toppin off the bench offers some good balance for them as they don’t want to rebuild but this is more of a retool.
Damn we gave Toronto 2 starters. IQ and RJ both starting in their debut.

Watching IQ is heart breaking but it looks like a nice fit. Meanwhile D. Mitch looks like a superstar early. We need that.

You can always have their posters on your wall. Maybe frame them
I'm very high on IQ, but people always bring up his "Starter" stats and those were pretty amazing for Obi too. But alot of those were accrued in garbage time and against bench players. Even Grimes averaged 25ppg last April.
I always said maybe Thibs actually had Obi in his best role, maybe it was quite possible that Obi's best long term role in the league was going to be just what he had here, an off the bench energy big. And it didn't take long for IND to move him to the bench. IQ is a very solid two way player but it's quite possible his best role is also a sparkplug microwave scorer ala Lou Williams. The way MIA nuetered him in the playoffs was always in the back of my mind.
Going to be interesting how he does as not only a PG but now starting and having his minutes mostly matched against other starters.

IQ was starting many important games in March for us last year when Brunson was injured. Obi's stats definitely were in less pivotal games than IQ. I think IQ is a streaky guy - but on the whole he'll be 20ppg 5-6 APG for Tor and get himself something closer to a 25-30mm per annum offer.

Don’t adopt at a shelter in the NY/NJ area. They have nothing but pit bulls. I love pits and have adopted them but lots of landlords are now prohibiting them.
Adopt from shelters in the south or west coast. They actually have dogs that aren’t pit bulls

Lots of landlords prohibit dogs.
If you have a landlord, carefully consider if now is the right time to have a dog.

We go to the same store we bought our dog to buy his food. The staff loves us and offered us real bargains if we ever buy another puppy. My wife surprised me and said maybe next year she will get a little puppy as a playmate for our dog. Maybe when she is ready we will discuss adopting.

The crazy thing about OKC is they might have enough to win the whole thing already. They might not even need to trade for another star. They have talent and selfless players everywhere.

Why they have Giddey away from the team while everyone else is paling it up. Are they too "mature" for Josh to interact with?
Chet has just been super impressive for a rookie. Wemby will be the better player and perhaps if he was on a talented team as OKC he'd be front runner.
If Im OKC I just ride this season out and keep building. SGA is a star, and Chet is becoming one.
Age of consent in Australia and OK is 16. In California its 18. Was there crime other than her being underage? Lots of gray areas with things not made public.

Last I saw is that law enforcement in California were investigating and the victims family weren't cooperating.
