Third year team option makes this at least a good signing. FVV will be positive for our young guys and we don't have a first rounder this year. We needed to pay SOMEONE to get to the minimum, and Green and Sengun's extensions won't be kicking in for another 2 years anyway.
Good point on the salary floor. Totally forgot about that. But my god, $43M? Now we are giving D Brooks $20m? Honestly, for that money we should have just paid Harden. I just hope that all these signings are to set us up to get Jalen Brown or some other disgruntled star (like how we got JH and T-Mac in the first place).

i'd prefer FVV over Harden but why couldn't Stone just throw the $80millions on Austin Reaves instead of Brooks
I'm on board, it was still an overpay for a mid player, but only being 2 years salvages it. The Brooks deal on the other hand? Complete disaster
I agree that Brooks will have to win me over. I thought his value would’ve plummeted after his playoffs with Memphis
[Koreen] VanVleet’s departure only makes it that much clearer, at least to me: The Raptors should seriously explore trading Siakam. With the downgrade at point guard (and yes, it’s a downgrade), the Raptors are a less dangerous team.
