Should we expect Toronto to lose big without a coaching staff?

I'm curious to see what they do.

Is Kyle going to player-coach this one?

I read he's asking to be traded to Philly so maybe he sits this one out?

His agent has pretty strongly come out against this rumour. Philly would have to gut their bench to make it work. I kinda doubt it's a thing.

Toronto had seven coaches but with Finch going to Minnesota I think the entire staff is out.
 
According to the current CBA, player-coaches are not allowed, I've just read.

If Toronto tanks the season by trading Lowry i can see them being happy with getting Maxey back.
Philly can send Green,Scott, Ferguson and Maxey and then use their trade exception to make up for the lost depth.
I think it would be win/win for both considering Sixers want to win now while Raptors just don't have enough firepower and Lowry is 35.

I don't think there is much difference between Tyrese Maxey and Malachi Flynn.
 
Mark Cuban traveling with his team on the road and in attendance for the game vs the Nets.

Even though PA didn't always travel, it was never lost on me how lucky we were to have an owner who cared as much as him. Cuban/Ballmer type owners can really make a difference.

They are very different players though. Maxey can evolve in a dynamic scorer and I think he has a higher ceiling.

Maybe no Draymond come Wednesday. That’s good news for the Blazers

From the way the Warriors look right now Blazers will be fine.
They look tired and disinterested. Sloppy on both sides of the court.

Their smart wait for Klay to come back next year in the meantime get more lottery picks
 
Hopefully Hayward stays out for tomorrow’s game for Charlotte too.

So you don’t think they are trying to get in the playoffs?
Is that what you are thinking?
By the way it’s “they’re”.

Charlotte is going to be on a B2B with little rest. Their game hasn’t even started yet tonight.
This is one the Blazers have the schedule advantage on.

I think they are preparing to ease up and just prepare for next year. That’s an organization that only cares if they have a chance to really be competitive. If not they don’t waste time otherwise
