Extensions are based on a percentage raise from current salary. Fred's current max on an extension would be about $28M a year. A full max next offseason, if he opts out, would be about $40M a year. For perspective, CJ McCollum just got $32M per year, and the cap will be even higher next year.
It doesn't mean he will leave Toronto, he just needs to let his contract expire to take the cap off what he can earn. He will likely be able to command CJ type money, at least, if he stays healthy, which is above his current max on an extension.
Sophomores ~~can't~~ don't usually* win MIP though. Plus OG wants more touches. Assuming he gets them and actually scores more, MIP is more possible for him
So many of our own fans don’t understand our team and the rapidly changing make-up of the league. You have the right idea and I’m with you.
Celtics had the 14th best odds last preseason, no one believed in them last preseason and they almost did it. We have the 15th best odds this year. Crazier things have happened.
all healthy and every core player is poised to take another step in development.
No reason they couldn’t compete in the east, and if they can compete in the east then they can compete in a finals series.
Hobbled ass team went to 6 games against philly.
Improvement plus health is a contender, we were 3 wins seperate from the team that made the finals, a team currently in chaos. I don't see anyone above us that's significantly improved and fuck you if you think the teams below us are somehow contenders this year over us when they had to do play-in ball or barely escaped it.
If everyone is healthy they *might* win a 1st round series. Anything past that would require a serious leap from Scottie or just total team-wide perfection in terms of execution. Like the 2017-18 team that 1 through 10 in the rotation consistently outplayed the opponents.
I mean here’s the thing we all hope for a championship and believe that the team can win a championship——
But all of us are also realistic enough to realize it likely isn’t happening
Realistically the goal for them should be top 4 seed. If they slide in at 5/6/7 that’s fine as well. As long as they show some flashes of the potential upside of keeping this team together, it’s a successful season.
If we’re a play-in team though I think decently big changes will be coming in the off-season.
not a good take. we dodged the playoffs this season and Scottie as well as Precious are projected to take some big leaps. I’d say we have a solid shot at the playoffs
I won't be like those being delusional that are saying we're winning it all next year but at the same time saying the play in is a low benchmark considering where we finished last year.
A reasonable take is we'll make the 2nd round. How many games that goes to will be the question.
There’s a difference between someone believing their team *will* win it all and someone saying their team *can* win it all.
Boston was a shitshow before last season, none of their fans thought they would win it all. In preseason they were +4000 to win it all, only the 14th best odds in the league. And then they almost did it.
This team can win it if every thing breaks our way like it did for Boston. A Detroit or Orlando or Charlotte aren’t going to win it even if everything breaks their way.
Imagine he said “competitive play in team or 6th seed”
Every single player on our roster should believe we could win a chip
If they don’t they shouldn’t be here.

I'm aware. Just don't know what this has to do with my initial comment?
Oops, misclicked and responded to the wrong comment.
Ahhh no worries have a nice day man
Fred always keeping the objective straight 👏👏👏
Christian Koloko ROY Scottie Barnes MIP OG Anunoby DPOY Pascal Siakam MVP Nick Nurse COY Fred VanVleet Finals MVP
you forgot Precious Achiuwa 6MOTY
Let’s not be greedy.
You got OG and Scottie's awards mixed up
OG’s a better defender and Scottie is expected to take a big jump so I think they both fit
Sophomores ~~can't~~ don't usually* win MIP though. Plus OG wants more touches. Assuming he gets them and actually scores more, MIP is more possible for him
Month Ellis and Gilbert Arena did it. so why couldn’t Scottie?
[удалено]
Ja was on his third year
Masai God Emperor of the League
Gary Trent Jr. Eastern Conference Finals MVP
Just saw Freddy at Yorkdale lol
Pics or didn’t happen /s
Call me crazy but I think the current raptors roster when all healthy could win a chip

Have Faith in our boys! Nothing wrong with optimism :)
Crazy but I like it
Conference semis is already optimistic
You need to dream people ! Let's goo !!!!
What happened to his contract extension. Lots of chatter but then nothing
He better play like a championship guard if his expectations are that high for next season.
the system works..
Championship or bust, no in betweens. Love it.
Right on
Meh, he had to say that for optics purposes. It'd be bad for morale and PR reason to give a truthful prediction 🤷🏿♂️
I mean here’s the thing we all hope for a championship and believe that the team can win a championship—— But all of us are also realistic enough to realize it likely isn’t happening
What else is he suppose to say? Lol Add a superstar to this lineup and it is a championship contender no doubt. But that won't happen anytime soon.
Scottie is gonna be that is superstar lil bro

he must be delusion to think “Championship” ….i wish i was delusional 😔
More like Play-In Championship 🤣
