Sharpe showing some things I've never seen from him before... That one dunk he made after committing an offensive foul on Olynk was pretty sick...

No idea what's going on with Claxton... What a weird ejection...

Claxton ejected…..he really needs to chill with these temper tantrums

Clax is almost a liability this season

In other news, Simmons fts have improved a lot this season on a very, very small sample

Sharp is like a Bull in a China shop. He needs to up his finesse.

Is Simmons finally starting to turn a corner? He's been looking better and better... More fluid that's for sure.

Also as much as I want him traded to solidify the tank, Cam Johnson has really developed this year...

I love the effort, but this is an important tank game.

It's so hard to hate this team :lol:

... Marks is gonna have to take matters into his own hands and dump some now guys though...

Calm down guys

The Raptors are truly awful, short handed and their coach isn’t the best so tough to lose to

Nooo we're supposed to be losing these type of games against bottom feeders SMH. Yea idk whats with Claxton throwing the ball in the crowd like that then causing a scene after, that was really weird. Somebody might need to check on him

This would have been a nice game to lose for lottery balls, but I respect us fighting for the W.

There was a Michael Porter Jr interview a while back where he said that Simmons recovery timetable was 18 months/2 years based on his own experience

Given that he’s only just off minutes restrictions, seems like he was spot on & it tracks with my experience (& my son’s) of the same procedure

I very much doubt that he’ll make it all the way back but he is showing signs of being a capable player again

i guess it's a good news bad news thing to get the win behind a good camjo effort. obviously marks holds him in a different category than schroder since he's not already gone. will be interesting to see what he brings back since i dont think volume of picks is what nets want. i would guess marks is going to target a rookie deal player he likes, which may open up the field more than picks since so many contenders dont have picks to trade. except OKC who would be a good fit all around.

Said it before but there’s no need to trade Cam unless we’re blown away by the offer as he’s under contract on a reasonable deal

Eventually, we’re going to need another version of him anyway & they don’t come cheap
