This trade was 1 Spencer Dinwiddie level player away from being the Kyrie package.
I think it's quite steep given that the Raptors are going to have to pay this man 20+mil this offseason.

They still can be.
OG for 3 FRP restores their pick stockpile. Same with Siakam.

Good for us but the Spurs feel absolutely helpless
I wonder how much longer Pop sticks around

I still think they will sell high on OG and one of FVV/GTJ. You can't have that many players on one team that go by their initials.

sure, but I doubt it. I think moving either, ESPECIALLY Siakim, would make this deal even dumber than it already is.
this, to me, is a desperate move by a team trying to convince themselves they're in it.

Sure, maybe FVV or GTJr...I can see that.
MAYBE even OG, if he's really unhappy and that wasn't just a rumor.
But I think siakim is staying.

Seems like a bad trade for both teams.

I don't think Toronto makes another trade unless someone blows them away with an offer

Among their six high-level starters (Poeltl, Siakam, Barnes, OG, Trent and FVV), who comes off the bench? Seems someone has to go.
One way of freeing up the protections on the NY pick would be to give them them the 25 second that is tied up in the protections that carry through 25. Bertans and 25 and 27 all unprotected plus unprotected swaps and Hardy? Does that get it done?

I don't think that is enough for OG or Siakam, not interested in FVV or GTj

It will be interesting. With Fred and GTJ both wanting contracts over 25 million a year this summer plus Poetl's upcoming Free agency, I think one will be moved. But we will see. Maybe they can move one via SNT this offseason.
