FFS aint noone comparing Cam to Curry

The point is, if you have good offence, the team can make some sacrifices to cater the team defence around your lack of.

He's heard he's going to the Raptors and wants to show he has what it takes,
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

His atrocious defense didn't help matters tho tbf lol

Ayton has been insane the past 2 weeks. People won’t talk about it though.

Flynn. Then the floodgates will open and we'll see Juancho and Boucher moved. We'll discuss Thad, but ultimately value his leadership too much to move him.

Cam Thomas is shedding light on the future direction of the Raptors and if we need to make a shift.

He is an Anti Raptor, poor defence, not 6'9, iso player, can actually score

But somehow, what he is doing is way more fun to watch than whatever the hell we have going on

Are we wrong or over confident that we can teach and develop anyone to have a good offence? Or should we perhaps look at score first players and teach them how to play acceptable defence?

... I'm not saying he wasnt a bad defender. I'm saying if he was a generational superstsr offensively he would've made up for it.

Even with all of kawhis great defense if he put up demar derozan numbers offensively we would've lost to yhe sixers guaranteed.

cams meh guys... i mean these types of guys are nice bench players but you dont want the ball in the dudes hands asking him to make decisions all game. clax i like, i think he's a bit overrated and his shooting is terrible but hes a nice player. again both those guys are nothing to write home about tho.

If FVV is on the team, then Nurse has to go. I can't watch 40 minutes of Fred. I would watch 32 minutes of Fred, but 40 and I am changing the channel. As long as Nurse and Fred are together, Fred will be worn out, resulting in back injury and heroball.
