I don't think that's entirely true, but I see where you're coming from. We know what he isn't, but we also seem to have found a role which works for him, as we did with RJ. We just can't maintain the environment and the role responsibilities.whitehops wrote:easily the worst part about west coast road trips. oh, all four games this week start at 10? cool...
kind of makes you appreciate how the players transition coming back from a west coast trip on 3 hours less sleep.
I work shifts, man. I know all about sleep debt. They'll be fine, especially at their ages
Substantive backup like a winning record?

Watching Wemby and Thompson is exciting, I imagine their fan bases are very excited for the future.
It's very depressing the talent we're stuck with here in Toronto. CMB is the only bright spot for me atm.
You say this as if Scottie Barnes and BI aren’t on this team. Give your head a shake or go follow those teams.
Scottie is the main reason watching the Raptors is painful for me. It’s ugly basketball on the offensive end.
BI is fine and he’s been great for us. But he’s not a superstar.
I wish I could follow a new team tbh, but I’m a sicko who’s been watching this team since I was 14 and can’t get away from it.
We have dudes on this team.

This is a mod talking like this. How are we supposed to take a mod seriously moderating the board when he talks with such delusion. It just lessens the integrity of these posts.

Not sure what you're laughing at, he plays two way basketball, creates for others, and has added more bag this year that we haven't seen before from him.

Got me! Let's ignore his recent 21/11/3 and 15/7 performances.
