He actually played well, got a clean look near the bucket but just went in and out.

Pascal should have dribbled off his leg to be the perfect homage to his doppelganger.

I'm so conflicted with these games. I want to see them do well but I know tanking is what we need to do for long term success. SMH

Everytime Lowry takes one of those early in the shot clock long 3s you know it's off

This loss is on Lowry chucking in the 4th not Siakam.

Whatever, draft pick

Weak azz new DeRozan.

find a new whipping boy as DeRozan could always get space to get his shot off..i've seen DeRozan close games here. going forward fred or lowry should have the ball in their hands.

Brutal way to lose a game, but OMG, Pascal. That's been four games now that he's excelled at a high level - it feels like he's back, and having fun again.

Also, Boucher. Making the shots, blocking the shots. Twice as many ppg as last year. twice as many apg as last year, third in the league in bpg, and grabbing more boards than last year. MIP candidate? (He won't win, but he deserves consideration)

Brutal. The team really has no go to closers late, its been the same story again and again. Kyle was unusually bad in the 4th too.

They relied too much on 3s at the end. When they went in the paint they were doing great! This was sad to watch. I'm gutted

CJ isn't a superstar.


He might not be but he can damn sure close a game out.

Nicky the least of the issues right now. The roster itself is not very good.

Probably played our best all around game of the year and still lost. That was pretty demoralizing.

This team finds ways to lose on a nightly basis even in games they completely outplay teams. I’m pretty confident they’re going to end with a pretty bad record.

You are only has strong as your weakest link.

Raptors starting centre is trash. Baynes is Jared Sullinger 2.0. Slow, and useless. Len is just useless. Boucher is a good rim protector and decent shot maker but his defensive instincts are all over the place.

At this rate, Raptors are sure to move Lowry before deadline and they will get a top 5 pick.

See you guys next season. Pray Lowry is still on the team or we'll be an 8th seed the next five years.


This isn't new. We have always known we have to beat two teams.
