Otherwise, his chronic issue was undetectable. His fastball lost 5 MPH and no one knew why. | ||

http://www.raptorshq.com/2016/8/11/12447122/report-raptors-looking-to-extend-masai-ujiris-contract i hope the Raptors re-sign Ujiri and i hope they give him the same or more autonomy. I think his program for african basketball players is a great idea. Anything the Raptors can do to find non-American basketball players benefits them more than the other 29 teams in the NBA. same as for the Blue Jays finding non-american baseball players. The guy who hired Ujiri, Tim Lewieke, is no longer with MLSE so there was some concern Ujiri might not be 100% happy with his work situation. i believe in Masai... | ||

Already loved his work in Denver and I still think letting him go was on of the biggest mistakes the Nuggets made. He is definitely one of the better GMs right now. | ||

Yes, this is the big deal with the Bosh thing. If he goes for a year without playing, then the Heat will be able to cash in on the injury insurance and probably just cut him. | ||
