He may have not been perfect but I will miss gary and appreciate how he embraced toronto
Naw, he was just another Fred. Played for himself and only himself but at the end of the day, he played his self
@@aarongreen8325 hear me out. We knew fred was a smart playmaker but purposely hogged the ball. Gary was just limited. Didnt have the IQ handles or athleticism to create any advantage
@@aarongreen8325he was well liked in the organisation and by teamates. Calm down nancy
@@aarongreen8325 With fans like aaron who needs opponents? Everything that I've seen written about him or that GTJ has commented on, shows a good teammate who appreciated living and working here in Toronto. I say bundle your hate up for the bad characters - not Gary.
Gary would have been signing for $20 million per year and up, but the CBA was changed and the whole market for the pure shooters who don't do much else is limited with the Cap changes. The agent shouldn't get a nickel from Gary.
@@jeffreym.8957 Lol at all y'all. He was well liked huh? Barely ever mentioned by Masai or Bobby throughout the years. The only clear indication how the franchise felt about him was when we were told he was un-fixable by Nurse. What are you guys smoking? Lol This is a business or didn't you learn by now what we went through with Fred, Pascal and OG. Y'all the type to pay a dude 25 mil cuz he says "Hi" when he passes you in the hallway.
If he was asking $25 million he wasn't serious about re-signing here. That's a ridiculous amount for a one dimensional role player
Agreed. I thought he was going to stay on for a reasonable contract. They didn't seem very interested though. Its almost like they are planning one more tank year. Give all the draftees lots of playing time?
@@jeffreym.8957 darko said 2025 and 2026 draft years are strong and he likes them
@@jeffreym.8957 if the team sucks for the sake of player development and seeing what the young guys can do I'm cool with it. At least we now finally have a direction
Thx for sharing this…prevented me from watching the video 😅
Gary is going to be lucky to get 10+ mill/year at this point. His agent completely failed him but hes not the only agent that's done that.
Caleb Martin and his agent turned down a 5 year/65 mill extension from Miami. He ended up signing for 4 years/32 mill. Lol
I'd be firing my agent.
The worst ever was probably Dennis Schroder's agent.
I wanna eavesdrop on those conversations via a 4k livestream :P what were these guys thinking.
GTJ didn't want to play
for the RAPS anymore
IT was time for him to move on to play with a
contender team. At just
25 yrs old plenty of basketball ahead of him LOVE you GÀRY ❤
Thanks again from Ontario
Trent Jr is inconsistent and underwhelming so Im surprised they were even considering negotiating with him when they have gone in the direction they are in. Good luck elsewhere Jr.
i like GTJ but...i didnt get to see him taking that grit to take his game or raptors to the next level...its just like always on auto pilot...maybe time to move on....give Jakobi walter a shot
I have a feeling he should have taken 15 million deal we were offering. I would be shocked if he gets more than that.
Congratulations on 35k! You deserve it Ben! Putting out content nonstop
$15 million is great for a one-dimensional player.
The implication of drafting best player available is that it can lead to overlap, so when the picked Walter, GTJ was gone
All the best for GTJ on his new team.
he over estimated his value to the team
25 mil is crazy, best of luck to him
Yeah gtj had his opportunity toprove his worth end of season when he was starting. And while everyone was injured or getting busted gambling or prayers and strength to barrett fam for their loss he should have led the team.
Instead he bet on himself and just started chucking and launching 3s rather than prove he could fit in darkos system. I want BB traded but he has so much more to offer than gtj and who would you rather have mentoring the youth? A 1 dimensional 3pt specialist or a nba champ who played with murray and jokic? Yeah id rather spend on that and bank on Gradey replacing gtj mentored by BB and Temple
Tysm gtj and hope you get picked up elsewhere in the league.
As for boucher. Again its tough to move him at iis age and salary. Most likely end up like Ryker: filler in some trade to another team.
I'm ok with Gary moving on, I kept thinking there was more to see from him but it never happened. Minutes for Gradey now
I knew it! This man fail to grow he failed to improve and some times I watched this man trying to dunk in game and fails miserably. Yes he can shoot but only sometimes he is consistent so I can definitely see why. And besides he doesn’t pass the ball.
The man is a ball stopper on offense. Melo mentality but he doesn’t even have Melo talent. I don’t know why people are making a big deal about Trent walking. Even at 18 mill I don’t want him back. I don’t rate his shot selection. There’s been a couple games where Trent has shot us out of games.
Mssai gave Trent the Lou Williams treatment 😂 BYE!
doubt anyone paid him anything near $20m+/season. which means... he took a pay cut from those wild $25m/season estimates to be on a contender. let's see what he is signs for... maybe a 2 year deal for $32m would be my guess.
@mogwai_for_sale
I'd bet he will have to sign for an annual salary substantially less than that. Especially if it's with a contender.
The NBA 'middle class earners' (like Gary) are being seriously squeezed out.
When he’s hot…he’s hot, but when he’s not …he’s not. And it was a lot more the latter for GTJ. Bye-bye. 👋
That is the same for all shooters, though. Look at Klay. Gary has the same stats as old Klay does now. Klay has big games still, but other games can't hit a shot ... anywhere. If you can't defend well, the worth of the pure shooter is obviously less. It's tough to give away $20 million for one dimensional players nowadays.
@@jeffreym.8957Klay can play better defense and has a better work ethic
@@jeffreym.8957Yup👍
@benrogers gary was a starboy in name only, he never developed and his star flamed out after 1 good season.
Facts. He wasn't a factor on a team with two power forwards that needed spacing...
@giovanni-ed7zq
Hey, Gary had the style down though. Lol
Thank you for letting him go. My ex loved him. Lmao.
He’s a good shooter but if he’s not a starter he doesn’t like the bench role. Teams forced him to put the ball on the floor and get to the rim and he struggled.
He’s a 20 scorer on a bad team. But I told you to trade him last year.
I’m still upset at the raptors Bruce brown trade and not getting a draft pick to get a 3 and D centre.
Portal Chris and Brown has to go
I like Chris a lot but coach won’t play him and if Sasha stays his spot is gone.
And we need a 3 and centre and another OG type 3 and d 6’9 guy.
Then we’ll make playoffs but we won’t be a chip team unless we get an all star centre alla Ad Embid jokic Porzingis
Yes, we will win if we have an entire team of all stars. You not wrong
@@ScottieDPOYY only all star is Scottie and he’s a reserve. Boston has 4 all stars Philly has 3. New York has 2 and that’s just our division.
I really hope Bruce Brown can be flipped during Vegas Summer League and Chris Boucher (since Darko won't play him) so GTJ still has a viable path back to Toronto. A roster can never have too many shooters on it and GTJ was the Raptors best 3pt shooter on the roster. As well as, solving the Sasha Vezenkov roster spot quagmire. A starting 5 of IQ, GTJ, RJ, Barnes, Poeltl is solid. And backed up by a bench 5 made up of Mitchell, Brown, Dick, Vezenkov, Olynyk is a nice mix. With a deep reserve 5 of Shead, Walter, Agbaji, Temple, Mogbo is workable. Add in the 2 way guys Carson, Carton and Chomche and that's a nice 18 man roster. If not, GTJ should land on his feet somewhere via free agency or a potential S&T.
Ty from germany for the nice years Gary ❤
I’m going miss my nigga gtj I hope he at least go to contender
The only thing Gary can do is score.. and he does that very inconsistently. I personally like him, I think he can be a solid solid player if he was more consistent, but yeah.. if he doesn’t wanna be here, this goodbye won’t be a heartbreaking one
Also, why would he want to stay with a blown-up losing team that has brought in a bunch of young guys who play the same position and are fully tunnel-visioned on one (great) players "timeline"
All we heard was that he's better as a starter, which other team will he start? Only on a blown up team...
Good, I hope he leaves he was brutal last year. He is a decent player but I'd rather develop our young bucks.
He was also injured last year. I mean, when your feet are fucked up (turf toe), that's your whole ability sapped away right there.
@@Flashback_Jack at some point, we need to evaluate reality instead of potential.
They got a great deal in the OG trade, but got finessed by the Pacers in the Siakam deal (unless ja’kobe Walter becomes a star). Ja’kobe Walter is probably going to be a boom or bust.
Why is he in a bucks uniform??
bucks are the latest team interested in signing gary trent jr along with lakers
@@giovanni-ed7zq says who
@@k-notes5904 its common knowledge from bucks beat reporters since bucks lost 3 pt shooting wing in beasley they are looking to replace him with another 3 pt shooting wing and with gary trent jr still a free agent, he is linked as a target since he is one of the better free agents available currentl.

@@k-notes5904The guy talking in the video you clicked on.
I am so relieved Gary didn't take the 15 mill from us. He's not worth it. Even his only skill, outside shooting, is infuriatingly inconsistent.
love ya dude, but can we stop with the "trading Brown" chatter....we are stuck with him this year. Why the heck they picked up that 23 million dollar option is beyond me.
Hardly a massive report is it? When a player isn't signed before being a UFA, the chances of resigning is about one in thirty.
I like GTJ but he’s not worth the asking price. He can shoot 3’s and that’s about it. Not a good mid range game. Doesn’t have a floater. Not the best defender. Best of luck to him.
He's worth it
maybe we can help him with a sign and trade
What contender has 25 mill right now? Brodie might aswell go to Utah. They got 25 lol. Or Clippers.
Can we just tank and get Cooper Flagg, already.
GTJ should play in ATL 💪
Caleb Martin got $7 mill a year… Gary’s getting $5 mill on most teams so if wants anymore than that he’s staying with the Raptors
Dang 😢
Ayeeee
Ayeeeee
@@RaptorsDigest surprised you didnt cover cooper flagg at olympic select invite cooking Dru Holiday and AD. Cooper Flagg is already better than scottie barnes offensively at 17 by a mile. Cooper Flagg is a true number 1 option. Raptors draft cooper flagg, scottie barnes becomes draymon on the team. Scottie barnes couldnt iso marvin bagley in a video last summer, imagine him against Dru Holiday or AD 1 v 1.
@@RaptorsDigest i am surprised you didnt report gary trent jr signing with bucks
@@RaptorsDigest was expecting a 3rd video today, jameson battle getting exhibit 10 contract. vegas expecting raptors in year 1 of rebuild to get 31.5 wins next season total, gary trent jr rejecting bigger offers to accept a vet min to play with dame because he was offered a starting spot, jontay porter plans on playing pro ball in greece. darko having to go through 6 rounds of interviews to get raptors coaching job.
Ci vediamo dopo, Garry! ✌️
That was the Canada price, he’ll sign for 15 elsewhere.
Saying it again Norm was a better value....positive & good personality but let's be honest was never that dude, him and injured Rodney Hood was not worth it, another of Masai reaches.
Norm was the best. Too bad he got traded. Very reasonable player and always was happy with whatever role they gave him.
Is he crazy? He played even worse last year and he’s asking for more?! Lol. Glad he’s going.
This front office never disappoints in how short sighted their moves are. Why not trade Bruce Brown and then pay GTJ. The Raptors are going nowhere with this Front Office who let Siakam go for very little.
No thank you. Between Bruce Brown and GTJ? I'd rather pay Bruce Brown, lol.....Trent is a one dimensional bench player who wants starters money. Brown can give you so much more than just shooting. They both should be gone from here but if I have to keep one, GTJ is gone. Waaaaaaay overrated, stats don't lie.....
Trent has even less trade value than Brown.
Id rather pay nethier 😂😂 trade bruce for a pick pls
I can't believe this comment got likes...
U fail to mention the time on floor .
Gonna miss Gary and will be rooting for him.
Should have left last season
We don’t need him. Dick and Walter are going to be better.
FREE RIKER!!! haha
but the bucks have no one good to send the raptors 🤔
Really like Gary 😢
Nooo ! Say it ain't so..🥺
I doubt Gary Trent jr. Will get $25 million per year. He will be lucky to make $12 million per year. The market for this type of player is not there this year.
Raps are going to be very bad this year. Back to the dark years we go.
Lewie the Jewie, all 3'9 of him....his character is even smaller.
Umm, Buddy got 9 per, and GTJ turned down 15??? ...and GSW picked Buddy over GTJ
I will remember Gary Trent as the most inconsistent waste of time ever.
Thats too bad he has great defense
If he had great defense he would have been locked up by the Raps. I like Gary but he was not a good defender. He was decent with steals and that's about it. Great shooter. We will mis that I'll bet.
I hope Gary gets paid to play for a competitive team...he's been getting jerked around big-time by Raptors and many ass-orted media types
Bye.
He’s not even worth 15 lol
Buh bye.
Hahahahahaha!
All these people glazing gtj.
People need better discernment. He was fake all year.
Trade him to Orlando.
We should have let IQ hit the market no team was going to over the pay the way the Raptors did. Massai love to 0ver pay our guys, IQ is not even all-star.
No
Thank God he's finally gonna be gone now bruce has to go
So we just let go the coolest dude in the nba. Come on men. Now they will be zero female at the raps game. Lol
They don't like Gradey?
@@jeffreym.8957 come on men .lol.. that purple jacket ? a Prince ting dat. But yeh my boy Gradey may take his place. Lol
@@vintagejo4159 don’t speak n me again
Gary.... i love my dukeys.... but he has hit his ceiling. Hes not going to get better and make this great leap. Norman powell was more consistent than him. Hes getting like 20.
Gary your not worth 20. Much less 25. And youll be lucky ti get 15 at this pount outside of the hornets if they choose to over pay.
