JV has to contest shots inside from penetrating guards, his teammates gotta help with the rebounding. Like we always talked about, it's ridiculous that JV has to cover 2 players all the time, while everyone else gets a pass.


This is true a lot of the time, but not so in the last two possessions that we saw. JV just failed to box out Black. Got benched for it too.

Nice idea Patterson. Execution wasn't the best though

Who said the Lakers don't shoot three's anymore? Obviously they read the scouting report and that we can't guard the permitter.

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

The sequence before he got subbed out, the first board was on his head but he was pressuring the shooter on the second. Got no problems with the hook but Amir has been no better.

I can't believe Derozan missed Ross on the cut for the wide open dunk.

He then proceeds to dribble and drive it to the basket for a missed layup :lol:

Return to Toronto Raptors
