This series, while on one hand I say, boy, Darko is really getting them to play hard.
I really am impressed with how they've battled back over and over and over.
This is a very expensive team to be not able to perform a little bit better in what we've seen so far.
So, Brian, just in saying that.
Well, that one is a non-starter.
That is a, with all due respect, because the Raptors, these guys in the Raptors front office have built a championship team.
They have paid guys where no one is bidding.
No one was bidding that much on Yaka Pirtle.
No one was bidding that much on Brandon Ingram.
I'm not saying I don't want them in my organization.
I don't want to sign them.
I just don't want to pay them those prices.
Same thing with Quickly.
Again, maybe I don't have all the information.
Maybe there was some offer out there for quickly that I'm not aware of.
But literally, the last three contracts, big contracts that the Raptors have signed, the whole league has taken a gasp and said, oh, my God.
Now, the acquisitions of them were beautiful, but the contracts have been heavy.
I mean, you don't have to ask me that.
I mean, they've...
They've done a very nice job to pick themselves up from where they were a couple years ago when they had to move on from Kyle and they moved on from Siakam.
