The article discusses the paradoxical feelings surrounding the Toronto Raptors’ potential decisions in the NBA. It questions the logic of making aggressive moves given their recent lack of success and emphasizes the value of patience and building a young core. The unpredictability of sports is highlighted, suggesting that timing and momentum play crucial roles in success. The author also recognizes Masai Ujiri's respected status, noting his capability to navigate the complexities of the game while balancing risk and opportunity.
Masai Ujiri knows all this. He is a hallowed NBA executive for a reason. One of the few in all the League ubiquitously feared.
Rather, the best path forward would be the patient one. No big free agency issues loom... They're as young and hopeful as a clump of fresh daisies.
It feels wrong, I know. Why and in what world would Toronto think now is the time to punch the big, fat, red all-in button?
The League is as contextual and ethereal as all else in life. The inexplicability of timing, momentum, esprit du corps and all the other stuff we simply can't account for muddles what we can control.
