You can't even say we're getting Roko Ukic games anymore. This is like if Quincy Douby dropped 30 and 10

Re: PG: AJ Lawson is the Future
We really gotta stop winning games now man. This is getting crazy. At this rate, we're uncomfortably close to picking 8th.

Chicago is going to be hard to catch, but we're going for it by staying with the hot hands in the 4th. Bums are getting no playing time to close games.

Re: PG: AJ Lawson is the Future
I remember someone called me crazy for saying we should start aj Lawson and that he would be better than dick. It’s just more fun to root for underdogs than to watch coddled players gifted minutes despite being ass.

I'm not even sure what the Raps can do to try to lose games at this point. AJ Lawson is getting 30-10 and Shead is getting tip-back dunks over 2 centers.
At this point, just enjoy the ride. Whatever happens, happens.

Stop playing any starters in the 4th quarter would be a good start.

I saw Lawson play the last two games live, and he looks like the real deal.
But...
1. It's against the Wizards; and
2. The scouting report isn't out on him for opposing team defences.
Still way too early to say that he's going to be better than Gradey.

AJ just shot 2-16 from 3 as a starter the previous 2 games.
Maybe hide your boner a bit.

8th is most likely but play-in is not out of the cards.

Let's just imagine that Lawson is and always will be better than Harper (can't shoot yet) and Ace Bailey (no creativity, too slow to draw fouls). And conveniently forget that he's gonna turn 25 this summer.

Re: PG: AJ Lawson is the Future
Wednesday is a must lose game against Philly. Brookland will lose against Cleveland tomorrow. Sit Scottie his hand is hurting him and sit RJ and Purtle for rest Darko!
I am at a crossroads, I hate Philly and don't want to cheer for them to win, but I want the Raps to lose so make it make sense.
the loser next game is the winner NO?

I don't think it will make a difference. Our rookies are too good. They try too hard.

For those who are still Raptor fans, as opposed to ping pong ball fans:
A.J. Lawson on his 32-point night: “I’ve been dreaming about this since I first touched a basketball. I’m a Toronto kid. Grew up in Brampton. To have a performance like this, it just means everything.”

Re: PG: AJ Lawson is the Future
I can't stand that disgraceful 2nd round exit franchise who were supposed to be competing and now they're about to pass a team that's rebuilding and tanking this year, in the tank standings

Re: PG: AJ Lawson is the Future
They're clearly trying to tank but it's not working out for them. They should have done this a month ago like Scase said.
At least Lawson looks like another gem.
