It’s good to be back in the win column and now fully healthy!

Testing out my pre-season vision of Tobias Harris in the super 6th man role. It worked tonight (19/10 off the bench for him) , but the true test will come against a winning team.

I wouldn’t mind adding another scorer off the bench. If you see something you know what to do.

The Raptors offense has really been struggling to put points on the board lately, after weeks of functioning as one of the leagues better teams scoring the ball. The bench production has seen a lack of productivity lately and tonight was no different. With a big road game against division rival the Brooklyn Nets on the horizon, Toronto will be looking to get back in sync and protect their Atlantic Division lead.

I'm tired of MPH man. You in the hate group now my g.

2 point loss in OT on the road after he had that 5 point comeback win to blow up a double digit lead against me last time?

I'm only mad because I knew that was the best strategy I got and we still fell short.

Dark day for OKC. Can't even be mad, this the first game we lost where I legit feel like I just couldn't win. Like we got crushed against Dallas but I was too busy to strategize for that game, I actually had this strat for San Antonio planned out though. Might be time for some moves instead of waiting out 1/15...

That or I'm just overreacting and since I'm missing Ben I shouldn't expect to beat contenders on the road.

Since he has been running point forward Kyle Kuzma has been one of the hottest frontcourt players in the NBA (check his game log) and last night was no different as he almost notched a triple-double.

He is having a season worthy of All Star consideration IRL. I’m glad I have his bird rights.

Nice to see the Raptors have jumped +5 in the Power Rankings this week (highest increase of any team).

Disgusting loss on the road, held a 1 point lead heading into the 4th quarter and blew it vs the Cavs. Buddy Hield was rewarded with a spot start and he **** the bed. Also the refs needed to let the players play, 44 fouls combined, Hornets had 4 starters with 4 fouls or more just ridiculous.

JJJ has been lighting it up in January. The potential has always been there but he has never stayed on the floor. Efficiency is still crap also.
