- The summer of change kicks off the Open Gym season 7 premiere. New head coach Nick Nurse is introduced and reaction of the blockbuster trade that sent DeMar DeRozan and Jakob Poeltl to San Antonio for Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green is explored.
Cherish this moment. In 20 years we'll look back as fans and wish we could re-experience this excitement. I've never felt this way as a Raptors fan. It's been 24 years of building -- it's time to go get the trophy.
No chance...

@@teddybear698 still... No chance...
@@user-ok6ef9zn4f I`ll come back
@@user-ok6ef9zn4f define the word"CHANCE"
I wish these were 40 minutes like they were back in the day
I see the series blowing up because of Kawhi... If he speaks on them... People are gonna wanna tune in to hear from him since he rarely speaks... And if they check out a couple episodes they may be inclined to look at the other seasons.
nobody watched those bruh,
@@pazmanian155 true fans did, it's one of my favorites series because you get such an in depth look at your team which is something most teams don't have.
Paz Manian I did fam
@@pazmanian155 yea true raps fans did
man... rewatching this after the championship is special....all those little comments that got proven, all the little storylines... its so interesting
Pascal saying "YaknSkillz y'know" broke my heart
what moment was that at?
The loss of DeMar DeRozan hit me a lot harder compared to when we lost Vince Carter.
be greatfull, i dont rmr vince choking over and over and over
Yeah, Vince just stopped playing for us completely. Ugh.
Such a bittersweet episode! Super excited for this season but it's also really hard not hearing Demar say "Win on 3" or "Together on 3" :(
yak and skills moment.....Im not crying you're crying!!
what time was that at?
First episode is 18+ minutes? Well shit...it's going to be a good year.
Leo Angelo 😂
In fact it is
I miss the longer episodes so much. I wish they were at least 20-25 mins... This was pretty close.
you're damn right it was!
now that we in the finals im watching this from scratch lol
Kawhi about to show these Celtics kids who he really is
... just a fun guy
Ah HA HA ha ha......
Ready to chop y'all up
Hahaha. Fuck you! That was clever.
I don't even know where you sitting at...
@@hypothermic23 lmaooooo
Cant wait for the last episode of Open gym. When we finally hoist up the trophy..
This would be a dream come true!
Gonna watch every episode this season from the beginning to end to celebrate the Title!
Wow. Just re-watched this after the Raptors just went up 2-1 in the NBA finals. Goosebumps. #WeTheNorth
I loved demar but we gotta quit hating on Masai. He did what he had to do to take Toronto to the next level. Let’s be real we weren’t gonna go far with the same unit
yes but the way in which he did it was wrong and back stabbing. He could have shown some respect to Demar which he rightly deserves, by being upfront and honest to him about a possible trade. He didnt have to stab him in the back by going about it the way he did...that was just wrong and disrespectful!
Olivia M it’s a business. Masai himself admitted to feeling bad about it. It’s a business my guy. It happens to everyone
@@oliviam191 since when did any boss put the needs/wants of an employee over a company......NEVER....plus if you watched the last playoffs demar was benched the last quarter and he was so discouraged he got thrown out. It sucks cause of what he accomplished but it was necessary.
It was actually Bobby Webster who is the gm that made the trade happen...he is good friends with a front office guy in San Antonio, Masai being a true leader took the negative publicity.
@@oliviam191 disagree, emphatically
I hope DeMar comes back to retire here. Much love to debo
No thanks
If Tor wins a ring, will he be happy for the city? Legit question.
@@ALady767 not in the playoffs tho
@@dfern25 We won that ring
As much as I hate DeMar getting traded, you gotta try to understand where Masai coming from. He HAD to do something
Haroon Elmi agreed they needed someone to take them to that next level, and that was Kawhi
masai is top 3 he has made toronto better every year.
Agreed. You know how much he'd get shit on if he did nothing?
yes true but he didnt have to lie to Demar and stab him in the back the way he did. He could have been honest with him about a possible trade when Demar asked him about it!
Olivia M
demar was told there was nothing imminent when he asked. things might've changed a few days later but he didn't lie; don't fault Masai for demar's lack of comprehension. try to be logical about this, if you're a gm and tell your star player he's getting traded only for the deal to fall through, guess what happens? you now have a very disgruntled star player.
Seeing Demar in open gym for the last time is so foking sad :(
Here’s what I see, coach Casey disciplined this team to be taken seriously but coach Nurse ultimately changed the style of play to be contenders.
Like mark Jackson and Steve Kerr
Man, Nick Nurse winning GLeague championships.. now he’s about to get his first NBA championship on his first year as a coach..
IT'S GREAT TO HAVE OPEN GYM BACK
Can’t wait to see how this team progresses throughout the season!
And now you see
Who knows
CELTS GETTING MURKED TONIGHT
U was right
Nice prediction, epic comeback too 👌🏾
DeMar will get a standing ovation when he comes back. He will always have a place in Toronto. But it was needed to move on and try something new.
Will always Love you Demar and Thank you!😗💞
@@oliviam191 Yes he did!!
you were right my fellow raptors fan
Oh nooo... demar is in this episode 😓
Ikr when was this filmed?
Sooo in love with this raptors team!!! Welcome home kawhi and green!!!!! Give us a trophy!!!!!
WOW, I am an avid Kawhi fan but my heart wept when I saw the relationships with the other Raps and how difficult it was for all of them when they had to part with some of the players! Best!
Its crazy watching him meet boucher for the first time and other players just wow
Finally it’s back!
Been waiting all summer🦖🦖🦖
We’re about to flame Boston tonight!!
We goin to the finals this year.
bencollier60 bro that’s facts
Here we go again Toronto's fabs every year I like Toronto's but y'all say this every year
@@jobimonono904 One game away...
This aged well 💯👏👏👏👏
@@jobimonono904 and they made it to the finals.
Damn when they showed the Lenord and Tavares jerseys that hit me.
I just went through an emotional roller coaster. Damn.
Will always be rooting for my favourite player, DeMar!!
Open gym the BEST S7 lets GO!!!!
Iam enjoying every moment every second and I pray for best of health for our team and all of us amen
Gonna watch all season 7 open gyms then finals tomorrow let’s go raptors
Dang. It is super fun now to rewatch this after this season. Cheers!
man watching this is bringing back emotions man....
So sad to see Debo and Yak go.... But I understand Masai gotta do what he had to do. Hope this trade is a win-win for both teams.
Deebo died for this
Fuck that's low key a deep deduction
Thanks to Demar for everything he's done, and welcome Kawhi!
That ending with Kawhi's face framed by the bus door and music....ROCK SOILD. TDot loves you Bro. Even if you leave....Thank you. Thank you for all your efforts. Respect.
Finally!!!! Let's go, this is the year boys!
Great video. Gets the juices flowin. Let’s Go Raptors
Epic! History in the making!
It's so wholesome reading these comments from 8 months ago. Great fans on here! Positive even if it all stung at first.
Losing Kawhi (and Danny) still hurts as a Spurs fan. But you guys got some unbelievable players who will help your team get over the top in the East.
MAKE THESE LONGER
Great ep. Masai definitely talked to DeMar in Vegas and told him something that made him feel like nothing was gonna happen. At the end of the day, Masai had to make the move as his job was to help the organization win. We all got hurt with Deebo getting traded but we have to embrace our new franchise player. When Deebo returns, he's gonna be showered with so much love.
I followed this team since I was 17 teen now am 40 I believed the last 4 years we could beat Lebron but didn’t see it in our best players eyes i was hart broken I finally believe our best player believes we can get to the finals and it’s a wonderful feeling!
Dope series
IVE WAITED SO LONG FOR THIS
Setting in place the groundwork for a championship
OPEN GYM BABY LETS GOOOOOOOOO
Low key Masai is big
WE BACK BABY🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I remember when I first heard the trade went down, I was still in bed. After the news, I tried to go back to sleep cause it was like 6 am cause i live in the west coast canada but I couldnt. I had a headache and was too shook.
13:37-13:39 the 2 players that will lead both of their teams to the NBA finals and Stanley Cup final
Relive the championship season of 2018-19 nba season
Then 2020 blew up in our face
The casual fans are the ones that are emotional about Demar being traded. Real basketball fans know this was a no brainer trade.
Nick Nurse worked for Great Britain as head coach...I think Toronto will be fine.
Judging by the first 3 games this season, it looks like we found our Brad Stevens.
Open Gym doesn't disappoint
miss that team
lol cant wait for that 'spurs vs raptors' open gym episode😄😄
Who is here after they won?😎😎👊🏿
me, I'm just starting watching the episodes
HERE WE GO
It's not a basketball city, it's a basketball country.
I love this team. I really think this is our year 💯
I absolutely love the background music in the first few minutes of this video - who is the artist playing this music and the name of the song?
Oh my gosh demar is in this.....
Nick nurse has a good history with the uk! Respect👍
So weird that I was talking about Kawhi in Toronto months before the trade happened. I just 'wanted' him here because I was a fan.
Yak and Spicy combo i’m gonna miss that. 💔
😭😢
who else cried when they saw DeMar in this
‘Tis the season!
It like I’m watching true story movie series but with real people
Wow...is that a Blackberry Passport I see Masai using still? :D
Awesome way to start off Reading Week! New episode of Open Gym and Raps/Celtics tonight! Go Raps!
I actully cried with the DD part
Yes my favorite "open gym" is back, gonna miss dwayne casey
damn the ending gives me chill.. lets go kaptors!
Great episode and the music used is on point with the scenes and the stories.
10:32 that picture paints 1000 words possibly about the trade
Season is going to be ez pz
Kawhi looking at the camera at the end 💀
Go get em champ. #TheKlaw #northovereverything
Kawai is amazing, i love the move to get him, but DeMar will always be King of the North
Guinness Not if Kawhi takes us to a championship 🏆
Nopp
Kawhi is the King of the north easily
@@KardiFan2000 Well ya you're right. If Kawai brings home the championship, he will be king
I love open gym!!
Mann this is our year boys!! #WTN🏀🦖
They should have ended the episode with Kawhis laugh LOL that would have been funny as hell after that intense last part.
Hey raptors , as a raptors fan, I don't want Kwai doing interviews if he doesn't like to do interviewes. Protect him the way pop did.
Unless he likes doing them
Boucher is on the raptors now, that’s cool
wow i missed these
OPEN GYM WE BACK BABY
Fyi👀👀👀 ‘Kyle Lowry footage’ was filmed during this period 😲😲😲but could not be edited back to comply with the PG rating🙄😜🙄, when he clearly told everyone ‘listening’, where to go😮😮😮 & how to get there🤬😤😡 but now, looking back, ‘ his saddest moment ‘emotionally’ was his greatest moment ‘professionally’ I love the realness of Kyle. I also love his mindset towards ‘Masai & Kawhi ‘ who are ‘Lethal’ ‘Mass Weapons of Championship Construction in the NBA’
Why does this paint Kawhi as a homewrecker lol. If Demar stayed fans would've said "trade this choker" for underperforming his whole career, this season, the next season, the season after that, until they are blue in the face. Demar needed to leave years ago.
we missed you
Kyle lowry 17:23 🏆💝
CJ Miles is a smart man
GOD he really is. I hope he can get out of his slump
