Raptors are making the Play in but should they?

A topic of discussion for the pod.

What do you think @gnilma? Should the Raps push for a play in spot or sell at the deadline.

reply

I think they should go for the play-in spot if they're able, and also the playoffs if they can. I hate tanking, it introduces and reinforces a losing culture and does more bad to a team than good. It also does a real dis-service to the fanbase to tank. As well, I think we have a very good young core, multiple promising players with good potential. Gaining playoff experience would be great for our young guys' development.

Look at where Philly is, after the most systematic tanking strategy ever.

Tanking is for losers.

reply

Exactly. It also trains your young talents to be ok / be content / be used to losing, which I think is really bad for a team and takes a long time to recover from.

Should be like the Lakers and win the NBA Cup every year but lose in the pleyoffs

reply

The Raptors M.O. is to hang close with good teams and blow it at the end.

reply

That, my friend, is a tanking masterclass. Tank while keeping the games entertaining.

reply

Good point. Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory, is much better than just being bad.
