Should've had Kawhi on Harden since the beginning.

Team instantly looks better with the fat **** pg on the bench.

Weaseling out of things is important to learn; it’s what separates us from the animals … except the weasel

I guess if he got the Harden treatment where the slightest touch is a foul, he's have 40 points. But yeah, he doesn't get that absurd level of foul calls. Needs to pick his spots, but really everyone is sucking so what else can a star do?
He doesn't. But he needs to get the ball off quicker and maybe more give and go, pass and run? He is stagnant on one spot and everyone just watch. He needs drive and kick more. He is strong enough to absorb more contact than this...

If Kyle is that hurt, he shouldn’t be playing. I mean, if that’s the excuse - he’s hurt - get him off the floor until he gets right.

Props to Turbo_Zone for the sig

The elephant in the room is that we may never see prime Lowry for the rest of the season including the playoffs. Raptors are dead in the water if this is true.
The simple truth, can Lowry contribute enough to get the Raptors over the hump? If no, Masai needs to make a move to help supplement Lowry’s short coming this season by moving FVV, Delon, OG, and JV and even Siakam for that matter if we traded for AD for example, It’s that simple. We need another high end scorer on the team and is not a liability on the floor.
Green is a guy who really shines next to a star. Ibaka is the same. If Kawhi is on the bench, we need someone else.
This is not a knee jerk reaction. It’s a glaring hole in our offense. We need 2 stars that can generate their own offense and help the role players shine when the raps stagger their lineup with bench players. So far it’s only Kawhi and Lowry is helping others gets their but he’s not good enough right now where we can say, raps are going to win this game.
