Happy Friday y'all!

...or a miserable one.

Honestly nothing can make this a miserable night, even a blowout. We weren't expected to be here and really not favored to win. This is all house money we're playing with. Hoping for a win obviously but this has been a great postseason.

CMB (forearm) ruled out.

Ja'Kobe Walter (illness) available to play.

This is a game where we need to hunt and execute exploiting mismatches.

RJ vs their 3rd or 4th best defender is a great matchup for us. Will also need IQ to be making 3's tonight.

Fun Fact - Scottie (2071) needs just 13 rebounds to pass Boucher (2083) for 10th All Time on the Raptors rebounds list

they don't have great ball handlers so we will press them but they shoot the 3 great, so we have to hope they don't figure out our press. we gave the hawks some leakouts and that's gonna hurt with giannis.

Personally I say just put Barnes on Giannis 1 on 1 and force Giannis to score 70 to win

Will need to make our 3 pointers tonight. Gianni’s will dominate the paint

Oops I see Walter is available
That’s cool
I think CMB will round out our bench and increase our D intensity
Really looking forward to see him 25 game in

Apparently Porzingus and Risacher are out Friday for the Hawks. Raptors broke them.

Porzingis was pretty good defensively when he was on....I wouldn't say they had 0. But they're screwed if he ever gets injured, which is likely.

Getting a bit tired of rookie being out with something every single step of the way thus far.

Where’s Kate Beirness? Pregame doesn’t hit the same without her.

I just want to see a competitive game. I don't expect to win. This is a test of where this team is at.
