Summer League Thread Part 4: Aug 14th Charlotte @7pm TSN2

Barnes makes his impact when he's handling the ball...so why are we having Jalen Adams, Matt Mooney, etc...on the roster?

[OhCanada1091]

This is Golden States 4th game as well I believe so they have alot more chemistry.

[DatHomieYouHaTe]

lol at people saying we didnt draft suggs cause we had flynn

Ya, it was a really bad game after looking like a god after the first game. His playmaking just isn't there. Our best playmakers on the team are pascal and Scottie. We lack "connecters" all around.

If the raptors dont develop barnes as a primary ball handler it'll be the equivalent to bulking JV up to play like roy hibbert lmao. Dude is not going to affect the game playing off the ball

Don’t remind me. That was painful to see.

Skinny JV was a beauty

oh god dont bring this up

JV was an agile monster in his rookie year

that all quickly went downnhill beefing him up like a 90s center

6months ago I never thought he'd have that in his bag, especially not the shimmy shake.

He's hit a 3 in both games,

He's gonna be a Marion/Artest/Iggy type of scorer, but those guys topped out at 20ppg

Barnes is going to have rough times this year, but he has a toolkit to build off of and he's smart. Plus defender too. I understand the pick

It’s like not drafting Mobley because you have Jarrett Allen

Absolutely insanity lol. Dudes were off the copium with that take

To be fair Jordan Adams was our best gaurd this game by a long shot. Matt "Morgan" played off the ball.

On twitter there is like this weird little group forming that’s apparently “raptors fans” but they have like Suggs on their banner and bio and all they do is **** on Barnes. So weird.

The problem isn't drafting Mobley when you had Allen, its paying Allen $100 million AFTER drafting Mobley.

[HumbleRen]

Good things happen when Scottie has the ball in his hands, I’m positive that the coaches know that if we can see it.

I don’t think it’ll be an issue long term wise

[anotherhomer]

It wouldn't hurt if Scottie spend time in the g league a bit

Not going to do him any good going there unless he absolutely can't stay on the floor in the NBA (outside of closing minutes). He'll have a role defensively and as a secondary playmaker. Let him learn where it matters

It be a mix...he play with both big league and g league

Didn't watch game, checked boxscore, did Barnes have anything to do with kuminga/moody terrible shooting night?

Sometime you should never trust the stats sheets and all I can say thou Kuminga had more points then Barnes but both of them played decently. Kuminga 6 TOs are all or most on him Barnes 2-8Fg are fake and so are his 9rebs and it's should of been 2-5Fg and 6rebs due to 3 miss layups to 3rebs

[HolyMage110]

only glimmer of hope for winning the next few games is from master Watanabe

[Tor_Raps]

I missed the game. Worth watching? How did Moody look? I've read some comments alluding to Flynn not facilitating ball movement. That was my take away from the NYK SL game. I want to see him as a distributor more.

I came into this thread to mention that Flynn didn't have 1 friggin good pass all game and yet he jacked up 19 shots. That is the opposite of how I'd want my PG to play. Dude thought he was steph curry out there.

Playmaking is one of Flynn's strengths. You're basically ignoring Flynn's entire body of work over ONE Summer League game.

[scuervo1]

Let’s ship Flynn to Siberia.

[Tor_Raps]

Another angle

Probably the only good play of the entire game from our side lol.

Yea even I’ll admit that’s taking it too far. Barnes is a Raptor. He should get the full force of our support.

Unfortunately he will be compared to Suggs career. I’m hoping he blows it out of the park so the debates stop and guys like me can eat ****

[HolyMage110]

Barnes is going to take some time to develop while suggs will be able to contribute right away. Let's have the discussion of Barnes V Suggs in 3 years
