Pretty bad second half but a win is a win. I'll take it.

Player of the game tonight IMO. And we had a lot of contenders tonight.

He has been quietly bringing a lot to the table for a nice stretch.

Warren and Harris looking good is a massive plus

We needed this win, I am definitely not seeing a win Sunday so I’ll Take this. If Nets beat Boston Sunday,
We are for sure back

It's very early in season, but clinching the tie breaker is a big bonus.

Well JV said what every team seam to do. They let Trashtors to be shooters and dare them to do anything else.

That team is definition of TRASH :rofl:

Yo Ping Pong clowns got more talented team :lol:

You know, maybe trading 2 of their 7 identical long arm role players for the best iso scorer in the NBA who also fits their defensive system might have been a good idea, Not these delusional Raptor fans though, being stupid is one thing, but how about doubling down and being so fragile that you ban opposing voices that said maybe trading Scottie Barnes for KD was the smart thing to do.

Zero sympathy for them, it's good thing we match up great against them and a season sweep would be satisfying and just desserts for the Raptor bums.

Let's see what TJ can do being by default 1st option with this bench lineup

Agree. Barnes is overrated atm. He gets rep for being ROY, but he isn't even the best rookie in his class. But I know he has upside for being young, I guess we can't fault the Raptors for overvaluing their players.

He's just so frustrating to watch. His tunnel vision is what keeps him from taking a step forward. That, coupled with his patented step back 3 that doesn't go in all the time.

Again, he missed hitting Seth for a couple of open 3's.

Joe is finally turning the corner!

But TJ is what I'm most excited about as he has the size, length and talent to provide us a much needed help in the wing. Give him a couple more games and he'll definitely contribute on a regular basis. Such a decent first game after a long layoff, indeed a walking bucket.

I'll take this win. It's just concerning that if not for the massive lead in the 1st half, we would've lost this game.

Hive mind is scary, imagine condemning someone as a troll for thinking KD might just be better than Scottie Barnes.

Luckily, I think our board has suffered through too much to hive mind anything other than the fact life is basketball and basketball is suffering. Yuta still rules though...

I felt that after the Boston series, teams right now found a way to contain KD. He's almost a walking turnover when approached by a double team at the top of the key.

JV should be able to device screens to free up KD, as Toronto's length is really giving him a hard time.

Another nice team win. That first quarter was amazing basketball ! We were just cruising after the first half. Team is playing a whole lot better. Harris finally hit his 3s which is what we need because Seph is too streaky, we should give Patty some of his mins. So happy to see TJ Warren looking good in his first game back, his teammates and the crowd was rooting for him, very special moment. We're rolling right now, if we beat Boston next game I will be convinced that we're a contender.

yea Boston did a tremendous job defending KD in that series, we need to draw up plays for for when that happens. It seems that we have been getting better at that this season, teams have been blitzing KD and he's been getting rid of the ball early so hope we learned from that series.

Agree. Seeing Joe finally hitting his shots is like adding another serviceable player in the roster. I really hope he maintains this level of play. I also expect Seth to be a more consistent contributor once he totally recovers from his ankle injury.

Along with TJ & Joe being back, we still have Ben & Yuta who's curently sidelined. But once they return, we'll even have a stronger rotation moving forward.

The Boston game will indeed be a good indicator of where we are now, and if we have the tools to compete against the elite teams. I'm confident that Marks can still add another C before the deadline, maybe he's just waiting for the contracts to be tradeable beginning December 15.
