I don't believe it. The team was playing to win on the road. there's no way he's trying to tank at a home game now


no coach just benches Boucher after the stretch of play he's had if he's trying to win


Trade has to be imminent

In contract year that is going to create some serious bad vibes otherwise

He’s also not the idiot many make him out to be

He can coach to win or “develop” on demand

Come on.

You think he played the 10 day Orlando over Olynyk and Boucher because he thought Orlando gave them a better chance to win?

You know better

Boucher getting benched after being a big reason we’re winning is unwarranted. Dick continually getting **** on for playing like crap is warranted

This isn't hard to understand....we were not trying to win at all costs tonight

Get over it


Trying to win at all costs has nothing to do with playing guys that actually deserve to play. What happened o the concept of earning your minutes

I seriously don’t think people understand how much I would be supporting dick if I saw his potential. I don’t. I would be the first person talking shkt to everyone that doesn’t see it. Unfortunately I don’t see it. That’s why I’m adamant about it.

But just because YOU don't see it, doesn't mean he doesn't have potential. You're not a REAL GM. Even Real GM's get it wrong allot of the time.

KP730 wrote:clear signs of tanking:

- no Boucher

- no olynyk

- constantly had RJ and Gradey on together, even in crunch time. they weren’t doing this as much on the winning streak (their defence together is brutal)

- barely played quickly with minutes restriction (was playing well), yet didn’t have shead available


Scottie back at PG as well

There were so many tank moves all over the place if people just open their eyes to it.

Return to Toronto Raptors
