Luka was in god mode tonight. 44 points with only 4 FTA. 17/21 shooting. Such a fun player to watch

Hope when Booker is healthy he can be the go to guy for this Suns team.

Been saying Book is the Suns best player since KD got there. The team will go as far as Book takes them. His playmaking has gotten so good, too. Still a bit turnover heavy for my liking, but still impressive.

Very talented but is on the same page as Nurse when it comes to non-stop complaining.

I don't think anyone in their right mind would put Durant ahead of Curry on an all time ranking list. Curry is in the conversation for GOAT. Meanwhile, no one has ever thought that about Durant. He's an all-time great player, but still a notch below the GOATs of the sport.


Going into the 2019 playoffs it was KD I feared. Him and Kawhi were the best. KD has two finals MVPs for a reason. I wouldn't put him ahead of Curry on the all-time greatest list though. Curry's career speaks for itself.

edit: KD would be great in any era. Curry is in the right era. Put him back during Isiah Thomas's days and I don't think he is quite so successful.

RJ and Dillon Brooks both credited the NOAH board during their stay in Toronto.

Both have been lights out since August lol, shame it doesn’t help our own Raptors players. :lol:

I wonder if our guys are overexposed to it. Maybe it works better as a one time intervention...and then let the players intuition do the rest.

I’m not a fan of it at all. I think it’s cool for training purposes over a summer but day in and day out ?

That’s just too much critical feedback on your brain.

It's such a pleasure to see this Clippers team falling apart.

76ers are playing well and somehow playing different on offense than FVV/Pascal Raptors ever did.

This is what happens when you have better/dynamic players. It's tough to run a great offense without a top 15 offensive player in the league no matter the coaching.

Nick is still a good coach, but it was time to move on. To be honest I don't blame him for wanting out, but he shouldn't of said those things as we were trying to make the playoffs.

Tyrese Maxey is absolutely incredible. Surefire all star this year and he's such a fun player to watch. His mix of speed and shooting is so tough to guard. Nurse has the Sixers operating at an insanely high level.

Adrian Griffin prob going to get fired within the next 10 games if they continue to look like crap. BOS and Philly are just on another level especially defensively.

Return to Toronto Raptors
