Despite our loss we're still only 7 games away from the play in. Bulls play the Knicks today, hopefully knicks do us a solid and take care of business. We could be as close as 6 games. Beat the Bucks to bring the good vibes back. Let's go!!

Expecting a loss here and another long losing streak

Could THIS be the first game where we have our entire core intact?

Gonna be a rude awakening for those folks if they haven't realized it already lol.

Although they have turned their season around, they have a few recent losses to bad teams. I expect a loss though.

GO TORONTO RAPTORS GO! WE GOT THIS! LETS GO RAPTORS!

Your trolling is not as effective when apathy has set in about our play-in chances after a bad loss

Are you saying last night's loss doesn't count because RJ was out?

Well... it does count for those people who somehow think RJ is the problem and holding the team back from whatever we're supposed to be doing.

It's always great to kill every excuse before coming to the realization that some already did from the start, we suck lol.

Rj will be a big plus... looking forward to seeing him in the starting lineup... perhaps relegate Dick to subs..

Bennett is the dog... not scottie

We’re also only 2 games from dead last.

Anthony Bennett

getting bottom 4 is actually really hard. We are 8-27 and 5th last. It is going to be extremely hard to lose enough down the stretch to drop a spot without trading Purtle. I guess finishing 5th or 6th last isnt the worst thing in the world...better than 14th last. Could still jump to top 4.

Depends how aggressive we are at it. Teams like Charlotte have already started with the fake injuries and load management.

AI knows the Raptors are dead. If you look closer the bucks right side horn is in the Raptor,s throat

Del why are you always assuming I'm trolling all the time? I'm a grown man, I stopped partaking in such childish and undignified behavior a long time ago.

Nope he's not trolling, there are still those who want the raps to make the punch for the play-in

I might have to agree. It's time to make a playoff push

I was on team "start the season and see how things play out".

Well it's obvious with all the injuries we had to start the year mixed in with the hard schedule, we absolutely should be thinking of the draft over wins.

Now that doesn't mean trading just to trade. They will try and win next year. But for this year, treat it like the Barnes year, bite the 1 year bullet, and try and be a bottom 5 team.

To try and make the playing now would be silly...though we DO need to see a healthy lineup play together to see how things mesh. Just do it against good teams.
