You guys will be absolutely fine and so will Lowry. Bucks are just a bad matchup for you like Boston is a bad matchup for us.

The question is how much of demar's downfall is on kyle lowry.. He has always gotten worse in the playoffs which forced demar to try and do way more than he was capable of doing. This caused him to take way more shots than he should have been taking.. I think with kawhi playing so well people are force to look at lowry now, and not demar trying to do too much and dribbling the ball off his leg.. If kawhi was to have a coupe game's off lowry would have him looking just as bad, because he's not doing anything, and he flys under the radar with this fan base.

Not really, refs helped you guys in every turn.

20 free throws for the Bucks to 7 for the Raptors and we are at home. Only going to be worse in the playoffs

There were some bad calls, pretty sure Middleton travelled down the stretch, but we deserved to lose the game. Can't blame the refs when our second best player has 0 points. Good game!

Yeah no the refs played a major role. They missed a bunch of calls for us tonight. That combined with Lowry's cold streak this past month got us the loss.

The refs definitely gave Milwaukee all the big calls tonight. Still, we've had a good 5 games where we've lost it in the final minute with poor execution. I still have no idea why Nurse pulled Fred down 3 to let CJ inbound the ball for a contested Kawhi 3 way off the line. His legs were dead.

The only reason I'm not too concerned about these losses (though they suck), is because it's almost certainly because Lowry has been off lately. Lowry makes one or two of those shots and we win the Nets/Bucks games. Like someone said earlier, better to go through this funk now rather than towards the end of the season.

Exactly man, if you guys get anything from Lowry you win this game. Hard to blame it on the refs. Good game indeed, akways fun to play you guys

Jealous.

Enjoy those early 20 years and try to find that wifey by 26.

After that it’s all downhill

Thanks bruh. Gonna try my best.

I love that the raps were good during uni years. Fun to experience with my friends at school but yeah obviously inventible is here. Raps sinking

Lol this reminds me. I was in uni during the VC years from 2000-2003. At that time I so diehard my literally dream was to be a season ticket holder (among other things that come with being financially successful) so I worked really hard, kept grades high, got a nice job and career that kept progressing, got married in 2011 and same time became a season ticket holder at the lowest point of the Raptors history after lockout and the lowest prices grandfathered and got a couple of pairs of free courtside seats to go with them (also my dream).

You better hope there will be a prolonged rebuild. There’s a huge waiting list now for seasons and guys like me won’t cancel but a lot of casuals will. But yeah rebuilds are not that bad in the grand scheme of things as long as you are a die hard fan that won’t get too low or too high with emotions

Death Knight wrote:It's not just that Lowry is not hitting his shots (the few that he takes), but he's not taking enough shots period. I appreciate the passing, but his passiveness is hurting the team. He is the defacto 2nd best player/2nd option on the team, and by not even taking enough shots to be that 2nd scorer, he is forcing lesser players to become the 2nd option. He is forcing lesser players to take and make more shots. He is forcing lesser players to play above their heads.

Is it farfetch to suggest that Lowry is protesting with his non-shooting, overpassing play?

I started questioning this as well. It's obvious the affect it has on our team. I know there's an opposing angle most people would argue, but his style of play is clearly detrimental to our offense overall. Some games it works, but you hit the nail on the head. We need his scoring, period.

Geez, give Lowry a couple games off already. This is basically sabotage at this point. We're playing 4v5. He needs to get right and not at the cost of winning.

LJKO · Post #299 » by **LJKO** » Mon Dec 10, 2018 2:24 am

Right now what I need from Lowry is not his stupid 3s, I need him to stop assist padding and start driving to the rim for a layup. We need him to draw foul to go to the line and his damn booty hitting the floor on those drives. Whatever it take I need him to at least have 1pt rather then 0pts
