Nurse Intro Presser Thread (UPDATE: Stream link/2:30 PM EST)

[Topher]

Who’s your guy to ride come hell or high water?

[LJKO]

Let's hope for great Memes to come ^_^

[Lukeem]

" Will you discipline DeRozan for being lazy on defence? Casey had issues doing so"

Please someone ask that question lol

What are the biggest changes you are going to make in regards to play style next year

Why did the Raptors show so poorly in the playoffs this year? - (follow ups definitely needed here)

would probably get dodged but - What rotation changes / minute distribution would you have changed last year



% of the above questions asked by the time presser is done..... over under is at 1%

[Slo]

What do you think about the Tavares to the Leafs rumors?

[Mr_NC]

This is why there’s only 1 World Cup game scheduled today, the world has to see this guy without any interruptions

It’s rly too bad they don’t ask real questions and everything is softer than charmin.

Will he open and close a water bottle without drinking it like BC or will he drink it like Masai? Hmm

[macNcheese3]

Hope someone asks them if the boulder has/will be removed lol

Tune at 1:45 if you're interested in hearing Rex

[right between the eyes]

Man the announcement of him being the head coach isnt even on raptors.com

That website is useless ..how can there be not even a heads up on their website, Instagram or twitter page?. mlse still can’t figure out how to properly being awareness to upcoming events or how to properly hold a press conference .. can’t wait to see all the mistakes that will be made today.

[nabbs]

- Rex saying Doc is a premier coach and has championship pedigree. Saying how assistants under him go on to have better jobs (mentions Lue and Thibs).

- Rex saying they have a lot of talented names on the team that aren't household names but if DJ stays then they are a playoff team.

- Rex says he is happy that Dwane landed quickly and deserves another opportunity. Mentions Dwane's preparation is top notch.

- Rex and Dwane worked together in Minny (did not know this detail)

- PJ Carelsimo was on the show and was appalled that the coaching staff was let go after a 59 win season and Rex said in response said that "players win games and coaches lose games".

- He said Masai never lied to any of us and set out clear goals for a championship

- Rex says they had playoff success and the only difference was that they ran in to LeBron every year

- Said everything changed after game 1 and "we lost our swagger". Missing wide open bunnies and threes was tough.

- Rex said passion, optimism and intensity are what Nick embodies

- When asked about tension between coaches in the Cleveland series, and Rex responsds there wasnt any more tension in the series then there was in the pre season. They debated about philosophies and coverages and whatnot. The stakes were just higher in the Cleveland series. He said whether the coaches agreed or disagreed, coaches walked out of the room to coach the players on the same page

They’re asking really good questions.

[Psubs]

Josh Lewenberg: “What do you think about the city so far?”

Nurse: “Umm...”

Michael Grange: “What’s your relationship like with Drake?”

Nurse: “...”

Doug Smith: “What restaurants have you been to here in Toronto, a.k.a. the 6?”

No questions about the Leafs?

Fore sure they'll ask about the Marlies Game 7 tonight.

[wayoftheroad]

Our Media is just a bunch of pusssiees and wont ask real tough questions.

I hope they're reading my post on their burner accounts and actually grow a pair by asking real questions

[nabbs]

Fan590 guys should be in the presser. They asked Nurse some solid questions about Nurse's pedigree and whether there was really tension between the coaches during the Cleveland series?

Transcribed most of his thoughts. Only thing I completely missed was the last question about Nurse. He said something about how we need to get better at finding more open threes and making our open threes. Nurse is really great at that. Something to that effect but I could be wrong

"Are you planning on keeping that boulder in the hallway?"

They should sculpt it into a mountain. Climb the mountain
