Raptors Discussion: v52 | Yep...

[RayNibbs]

Raptors just looked lost. As much as it is on the players, the coach has to find a way to motivate. Yet again though... this is a playoff game, no excuse for the lack of effort on both sides.

JJ couldn't guard anyone in the second either and missed 4 free throw. He didn't exactly have me screaming for him to return. Every single player sucked tonight....again.

still better than lou and vasquez.... seriously! 40 points in a quarter and you counter by leaving vasquez on the floor...

 

[Alerion]

One more game like this and i think Casey is canned.

Question. Did Whiteside for the heat try out for the raptors at one time? He'd look good in a raptor uni lol

Yeah he played for our Summer League team last summer, before the Heat picked him up.

Lowry's drop-off is incredible.

But Lowry said it wouldn't happen again????

 

[Alerion]

Even more embarrassing is that we swept them in the regular season and they're gonna sweep us in the playoffs while talking **** the whole damn time. First Pierce, then Beal called us punks in a half time interview.

 

[bigred50]

Still alive!

 

[The Kessel Run]

I take back my last comment. Pats had a strong game.....that's it.

Well, that's what happens when Derozan talks and can't back it up

 

[Swervin81]

And now for a comeback that will get down to one point and fall short on a missed 35 foot contested bomb from Lou.

JV too. Vasquez has probably been the worst player.

 

[bigred50]

John Wall has more assists than the entire Raptors team.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

How has Amir been? did he step up? Just catching the end of the game

His defence was really bad. Couldn't box out anybody either.

I wouldn't mind seeing Chuck Hayes in there, even if only just to box out and clear space. Wouldn't be any worse than Amir right now tbh. Obvious those ankles are really hindering him.

 

[Swervin81]

Too little, too late.

 

[Daisy Jane]

i am assumin' we lost?

 

[The Kessel Run]

Funny that we had our way with the Wiz during the season. They just run pindown after pindown and we cannot defend it.

JV and Pat have been the only guys that have played decently well. Everybody else has been utter ****.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

Losing 2 games at home in the NBA is basically a death sentence in the playoffs.. correct?

 

[Bloomberg]

having derozan, vasquez, lou out on the floor together is like having three black holes on defense

 

[Swervin81]

Losing 2 games at home in the NBA is basically a death sentence in the playoffs.. correct?

Unless Casey magically grows a brain, Ross magically learns how to spell intense, our guards magically learn to not chuck under pressure, and Amir magically gets new, healthy ankles, we're getting swept.

But in general, yes.

 

[Vesa Awesaka]

JJ looks pretty demoralized

 

[Hadoop]

Jurassic Park is gonna turn into The Lost World if the Raps continue to play like this the remainder of the playoffs.

 

[LeeIs]

I have no clue what's wrong with this team. Maybe they were looking past washington since they beat them so many times in the season? They better tie the series in Washington.
