As long as we don't play ennis or Caruso our defense is actually solid. That second half against the pelican's where we played Josh hart and moved Clarkson onto point guards was a game changer. Caruso and ennis are turnstiles.

I like Hart but only knock on him I have is that he's a bit undersized when playing shooting guard against bigger players. I didn't like Mike Scott posting him up last night on the switch.

We have six key reserves? Boy, I'd have to see who isn't key.

The ones who aren't named

Our Bench depth is also Key to the game

I'd like to see Lonzo attack the rim more and maybe shoot more 15-18 footers. Those are open all day and while I recognize the value of the three point shot if they're just not falling then figure something else out. His shooting motion is crap and likely will always be crap. Step in a few feet and drain a consistent 18 footer...

Ewww no.

Statistically there is no difference in make rates from like 7ft to 26 ft out (38 to 43%) but the efficiency dividend from shooting threes are clear.

I expect Brook to have a field day if Jonas V isn't playing tonight. I understand Pascal can block a few shots but Brook is a vet and should be able to use his footwork to ball on Pascal.

I like the Nance vs Ibaka matchup and KCP on DeRozan match up as well. Gonna be a nice test for everybody tonight.

Let's hope Ibaka destroys Nance and they both go into a Defensive match up against each other

Is Raptors Bench any good vs ours?

SlimShady83 · Post #20 » by **SlimShady83** » Sat Oct 28, 2017 2:33 am

Randle might be better suited as a Bench player... If he can hold his attitude he'll be worth keeping as a back up
