I wasn’t the one to vote along with you. It must have been another poster. I will vote within a few minutes. But most will pick Shamet and Crowder

5 min until tip-off can we expect a monster game from Ayton, Bridges or Landale?

I gave up expectations for new years. Life is better without them.

Well said, last year’s high expectations got us eliminated in 2nd round.

I got a wonderful $500 match deposit on Betmgm decided to put 120 to win 270 right now. Raptors can’t shoot especially with Fred out their only significant strength are rebounding so we must box out and gang rebound as a team.

Why isn’t league pass working? This isn’t local blackout or national tv game

Too many turnovers. Already 5, Raps have 0. Not a formula for winning.

What happens to Ayton in the playoffs when defenders crowd him not giving him any room to operate? He can’t force his way inside so only solution take a tough jumper or pass out. God how I despise for DA to post up get better position like Shaq would do 3-5 ft from basket which is easier hook shot.

They are immediately doubling Ayton every time he gets the ball, but he keeps finding the open man near the basket to make them pay.

He finds the open guy and works inside out like a lot of those big name Cs did. He also had a nice move a couple minute ago to hit a baseline jumper. Reminded me of what Hakeem and Ewing used to do a lot of.

Mine is working, outside of the audio being a good 30 seconds ahead of the action, but it's been that way all season.

I dunno how much I have in me to watch a Booker-less Suns. The other injuries suck too, but yeah, Booker-less Suns is almost joyless to watch at this point.

It is very hard to watch without him for sure. Duane Washington might be the most exciting player we have left right now which is pretty sad.
