The main reason why Raptors have surrendered multiple big leads during this season is simply because they lack depth. Getting Carroll back should address of this issue but another reason why they lost this game is because they struggle to guard the 3 point shot. They surrendered multiple wide open 3 point shots to the Rockets and they shot 13/30. Brewer, Ariza and Harden shot them back into the game and suddenly, Raptors had trouble getting good looks and were forced to take bad shots late into the shot clock. If they had a healthy Carroll in this game, they probably wouldve pulled away with a win. No worries.

This loss was on Casey for not going with the same group that got them the lead in the first place.


Demar does deserve blame for that bone-headed and selfish flagrant foul on Beverley. The previous play that he was whining about getting a no-call on, he was fully under the basket and had no angle. He just turns into a very bad decision maker in late game down to the wire situations.


He made some dumb decisions, but this board is always predictable in who to assign the blame for in a loss, and it's always on the player that makes one or two bad plays down the stretch since it's easier to blame them for the loss. DeRozan did a decent job of getting others involved throughout the entire game, but all you're going to hear of him from the fans is that he's a selfish stupid chucker.

yeah it's a bit of a departure from the usual 'random scrub goes off for career game' that we've become accustomed to.

Brewer did his best Mcdermott impression tonight.

We are not the freaking warriors, we have a real issue with our defense and when derozan is choking away the game and lowry isn't on the floor no one knows what to do. Every playoff team in the east is ranked better defensively than us right

Losing to a playoff team in the west that has the second leading scorer in the league at the charge, or getting blown out by one of the worst teams in the league. I know what I'd rather have.

Blow out Raptors win until Refs decided to shade the game - or so it looked to me. You be the judge.

derozan needs to quit complaining and just play basketball..he let his emotions get the best of him and thats a huge reason why we lost today. I think this was a good loss though, we needed a wake up call.
