You dont see e posting Zach's dunk on Wemby. Zach will get better and IMO, he will have more value than your boy TC...


What are you talking about. What does this have to do with you and Zack. Not sure your why you defending against me posting him getting posterized. Acting like you schooling me on something. :lol:


Like what’s predictable ? I see this clip today when I typed in Yves name and post it and you out here telling me to not be cocky. WTF.

Bruh you tripping.

You must think this has something to do with you. News flash. It didn’t. Let me guess if you like the player you take it personal? Lol

I posted another clip of him Yamming it on Edey head in December as well. Where was you then?

Read on Twitter


Since you inserted yourself…

Now I’m going to be cocky cause….

Seems like Edey likes being dunked on Yves….cause it’s happened more than once

Image

Relax bro...I thought you we're being playful because I made a post that Edey made the All star rookie game...I didn't take anything "personal" :lol:. Those days are long gone for me. It brings no value to my time on real gm. Seriously...
If you want to know why I post about Edey in general- well its because I would have drafted him if I had a pick in last years draft and I'm happy to see his success in his journey so far...
and for the record...didnt you say we're grown men or something along those lines? you seem to be taking my post "personally". Are we having fun or what TC?


That’s where the problem started. I posted it cause it’s a dope highlight. It had nothing to do with you.

Like I said. I saw it when I looked up Yves name on the Rookie game.

Since it’s a RECENT clip, it was at the top of the search on Twitter.

you directly responded to something in the manner of it being taken personal with how you was talking.


You telling me I’m predictable was wild. Again insinuating that my post was to be expected because of what you said about Edey.

The minute you said “I thought you did it because of this… “

means that you are thought it was a personal response to you. This would make sense to me if Edey was YOUR player then I would understand why you typed the way you did.


I also don’t need to relax cause I didn’t say anything crazy at all.i didn’t say anything disrespectful. I’m chilling

Your comment was left field considering you don’t have horse in the race. So I’m trying to find out what’s this energy about. cause again… you thinking something the opposite of what my intention was.


If I posted a clip of SGA getting dunked on…. The only person I’m expecting to clap back is Caps.

If MPH is the one telling me to not be cocky… I’m expecting this intent is coming from somewhere else.

Either way I’m good about it.

You like Tyler Herro … so I have to be careful if he pops up in any highlights now.

The the issue with "text" you can never hear the emotion behind it...
All I'm saying is - I was just being playful and I quoted you because I thought you were being playful with your initial post.
I get it -you didnt even see my edey post...
And just to be clear- my #1 reason for posting in this thread is to keep it alive because most of the gms either rarely post or dont post at all...
All good TC...
btw, I like Yves...to be fair I only saw him in that game when our Knicks played him...

and I drafted Herro- so I follow his career...

Gg Pooch- you've had my number this season.

Nice game from Vando. 12pts | 10rebs in his first start. Gave us exactly what the doctor ordered on the boards.

The Toronto Raptors defeated the Memphis Grizzlies for a 103-92 road victory at FedEx Forum. It was a game they led wire-to-wire, leading by as many as 27 points.

Collin Sexton made a triumphant return from injury to lead Toronto in scoring, as Jrue Holiday only played 13 minutes, mired in foul trouble all evening.

Victor Wembanyama and Rudy Gobert anchored the defense — as usual, each notching a symmetrical data double-double.

The Raptors defense held their 9th straight opponent (11 out of their last 12) below the 100 point mark.

Toronto’s record improves to 37-10, leading the Atlantic Division and maintaining 2nd place in the Eastern Conference. The Raptors are winners of 9 straight overall (13 out of their last 14).

shutout to Jamal Murray. Holding Kyrie to single digits tonight (haven't went through all the box scores but gotta thing that is his season low in pts - he's been unstoppable in the SIM this year). Very underrated part of his impact on the squad but it doesn't go unnoticed.

Mark Williams 19/13 double-double in his first game with the Magic and Jordan Poole in his first real action since being reinserted into the lineup after the aborted tank adds 25.

Cleveland showed last year that a team can make a legitimate run as a play-in team. We're ready to repeat that feat.
