Synopsis: In my latest at Sportsnet, I laid out the rules, restrictions, assets and more that the Raptors have to operate around at the trade deadline.
With all due respect to Silverstein, February darkness never has me hating everyone. Your trade ideas? Absolutely. But who can be too full of hate at the most glorious time of the year, transactions season?
The NBA trade deadline is Feb. 9, leaving us just a few weeks from knowing in which direction, if any, the Toronto Raptors will decide to shift. A year ago, the team effectively traded down 13 spots in the NBA Draft to land Thaddeus Young, who they later re-signed. This deadline figures to more significantly shape the future of the franchise.
Transactions rule, and so you’re well within your rights to be firing up your trade machine of choice. Before you do, we have to go through the dry part of the trade calendar: My annual deadline primer.
