Before the start of this game, the Raptors made a small deal.They sent backup wing Terrence Ross and a 2017 first-round pick in exchange for Serge Ibaka from the Magic.

For other teams in the league, every move of the Raptors has attracted their attention.Many people wonder why they, who have won 4 consecutive championships and currently rank first in the league, would pull the trigger on the trade deadline.

But for the Raptors, they naturally have their reasons for doing so.Terrence Rose's contract is not big, but as the team's backup wing, his personal potential is not great, and the team has Yingxiong and DeRozan, his playing time is very limited.And Ibaka can shoot 3-pointers and defend well, making him the perfect center for a small lineup.

The Raptors are very short of Ibaka's offensive and defensive interior players. Valanciunas can attack, but he is easy to be targeted by the opponent. Whether it is defending against pick-and-rolls or defending against breakthroughs, there are many problems; Poeltl He moves fast, but lacks experience, and has yet to prove himself in the competition; Nogueira's personal ability is still not enough to support the team's inside offense and defense.

Being able to use a role player like Terrence Ross and a late first-round pick in exchange for Ibaka, the former Thunder insider pillar, this deal is definitely not a loss for the Raptors.Although Ibaka has potential injuries and is not at his peak, his shooting is getting better and better. In the past few seasons, he has also developed a stable 3-pointer, and his defensive skills are still there, and his blocking is even better for many small men. nightmare.
