Dumb passing by the Jays

Jaylen teaching Jayson his free throw technique

Time to give Tatum the rest of the day off.

Money was on a good season from him. He’s hurt though.

That's part of it, but they also have the book on his simplistic catch and shoot moves. He hasn't expanded his game and injury or not, he's neutralized for the moment...

He did show a dribble pull up in the pre-season. Back injury stopped everything. His defense also looked better.

We're lucky it's the Raptors. We are playing like ****

This team continues its poor shooting day in and day out. Nothing like last year.

And 1?

Raptors gave up an average of like 140+ pts past 3 games and Cs can only manage 45 in a half.

I doubt Hauser gets traded, for an injury that will eventually heal.
He's a 42% Career 3pt shooter, going back to college.

I'm sorry but this is the most pathetic up by ten ever..

Don’t trade Hauser, make him earn his minutes again. Play Walsh until he gets his act together

Bring in the shoota, Ricoooooo!!! Is he up?

ConstableGeneva · Post #133 » by **ConstableGeneva** » Tue Dec 31, 2024 9:05 pm

JB 8 pts on 10 shots. JT 5 on 7 shots. This isn't all-NBA stuff. Horford + Hauser = 0/8 (both were really good for us last season).

Well out of all the halves of basketball I’ve watched, this was definitely one of them

But, they have the book on him now, he is injured, they need another wing scorer and the future is now - not that he's
going anywhere, but I have no problem if they could upgrade him, with the emergence of PP.

I expect, despite the limitations, for Brad to do something...

We are trending towards a double digit win but an AoS

Well they took 25 3s in the first half so they need another 25 in the second half for their average. Wait till they actually hit the road gauntlet soon.

Naw. Scheierman played for Maine today, at Noon. Made like 25 pts.

38/32/25 splits. Only positive thing about this is it's happening today and not in May.
