But Lowry and Ibaka won't net you anything now. Next year they'll be easier to trade on expirings. But even trading them, the remainder is good enough for the playoffs in the East. Part of the problem is the East sucks and being bad enough to tank is hard. And if you dump DeMar, you need negative value to start tanking. It really sucks where the Raps currently are. Just gotta hope for something magic to happen.

And that's the draft isn't it? Bruno went at 20 in the same draft Jokic went at 41. If the redraft were done right now Jokic goes #2 after Embiid and Bruno goes undrafted. It's a crapshoot. So we hope the Raps can eventually get a superstar somewhere. But that's most teams.
