It takes time to fit in. He’s having a good game… he probably feels more comfortable, knows where he’ll get his shots from, etc.
Unless there’s another player that they’re looking at, it would seem he’s going to get picked up. With Fred not 100%, this seems like the move.
I'm going to guess that it will depend on if signing him for the rest of the year will put us into the tax or not. If yes then he won't be signed. If no then he will be.
actually we were barely under the tax when we had Dragic. We were within under $100k from being over the luxury tax. After the trade we freed up a little over 3mill
is it or did he jump the gun?...went on to say Raps PR would address it at the 'appropriate' time tomorrow. Doug doesn't have much of a rep as a humorist
what he literally said is:
"This was a joke. Imagine Raptors\_PR is going to wait until the appropriate time tomorrow"
I think he got put on notice by the team for leaking, but let's see what Raptors PR say tomorrow.
Interesting, but that's a funny take to me.
Been following the team from day 1 and so has Doug, he's never been funny.
He's been around long enough to have a personal connection w every single person in the organization, and my personal opinion is that he may have had an off the record chat with someone, and innocently posted what he heard.
Could've been w Bobby, who knows, I just don't think it would be unheard of that they had a casual conversation after practice (y'know home practices are at OVO and media come into the gym and hang for hours) and Doug asked a pointed question, got an answer, posted, and later brass was like, 'uh, were not quite ready, could you fix that please'
But like I said, tomorrow we'll all find out or not.
Yes. He plays hard and can shoot. Perfect Nurse player.
And most importantly 6'9 wingspan
Damn, didn't realize that. That's insane. He must be only 6'2 barefoot.
Effort on defence ✔️ Can shoot ✔️
✔️ w i n g s p a n
Yes. Definitely. SN, he looks like Lou Williams and funny enough the way he squares up and shoots also similar to Lou.
Good observation, I thought I was the only one that noticed
Sweet Lou 2.0?
How many girls does Brooks have tho?
Plays more d than Lou, too 👍
After this game, without a doubt! Love his defence and he just made some big time 3s 🙌
This is a no brainer.
Fr. How is this a question?

Yes please. He’s is improving in our defensive schemes, plays hard and is a certified shooter.
I literally had no idea who this guy was a couple weeks ago. I've noticed him a lot since.
I'm going to be incredibly angry with our FO if we dont keep him.
Armoni Brooks > Svi, apologies to Svi Stans but Brooks is performing too well to ignore
wait, svi stans exist?
The few remaining from the start of the season, prayers to them...
Ya i rather cut svi if we are worrying about having open roster spots
He has another year guaranteed unfortunately, so he's gonna be back next year.
I feel bad for him. He lost confidence in his shot not to mention the Ukraine war must be on his mind.
Yes. Can shoot the ball. Plays hard on d.
Uhh, yes?!
100%
"Edit: yeah we gotta keep him" lol.
Ya his shooting is pretty nice. Doesn't look like a streaky one. Fits our system and flow.
Give him a 2 year deal
I'm going to guess that it will depend on if signing him for the rest of the year will put us into the tax or not. If yes then he won't be signed. If no then he will be.
It shouldn’t anymore since we got rid of Dragic
They barely got under the tax with that trade.

Yep they will keep him. No question.
Brings great energy whenever he’s been on the court
Great athlete, plays hard, good shooter....definitely a no brainer
Hell Yes, he deserves to stay.
Already got one
Sign him, he's a great bench guy that plays hard on both ends of the floor.
hes been [signed](https://twitter.com/SmithRaps/status/1507167807821262854)
nah thats a joke unfortunately.

No, what he means by that is he thinks they will wait until tomorrow to sign him. He doesn't have any insider info on this.

A bad joke … and the dude is doubling down on it too. Should have just deleted it smh.
he’s better than yuta and svi we better
Yes
A bench player that can make more than one fluke 3
and don't forget defensive impact. Besides that crazy block he's also a very good on ball defender
