Hmm, no. But good try. You would be onto something if Queta was getting consistent minutes AND producing. But as of right now, he’s doing neither.

Im not going to lie though, I do get a good chuckle out of this. I remember you did this last year for Terence Davis and he’s not even in the league anymore. Lol.

Hmmm, anything greater than zero is a net benefit. And Raps are getting zero from their 2 ways. Embarrassing response but what else is new?

Kuminga is averaging 0.6spg, 0.3bpg and 0.9apg along with a below league average TS%. He’s just not a good player.

It’s funny how defensive you’re getting. You made a silly post. I called you out on it. That’s it. We aren’t discussing Neemias Queta who has played 5 games and has actually been a net negative player thus far.

But honestly, we can have a discussion about Neemias Queta if he can carve out consistent minutes AND produce in Boston’s rotation. Let’s just hope Queta doesn’t follow the same path as the last bench player you were advocating for in Terence Davis. lol.

What a crazy TNT double header. These teams are so fun to watch. It's a big relief from watching our team. I miss the Lowry era Raptors showing out on national tv

-People forgot how good Ja Morant is

-Suns are straight trash. Durant drops 40 and they can’t beat a tanking team?

-Warriors are going to be a nightmare for any team to play in the playoffs

Do we have interest in Austin Rivers? Anyone but Malachi please, if they’re trying to make the play-in.

He was annoying but he was a genuinely good player here. He has been absolutely solid for the Rockets and a major reason for their improvement.

I think he would have stunted Scotties growth this year. But this team would be a lot better with him on the roster as well.

They lost to Atlanta.

It's too bad he didn't try to make Scottie better the way he's helped Sengun. But last year he was playing for a new contract not to help teammates.

Also he looks healthier this year

Clippers Mavs great game. Kawhi is playing great, Norm is dynamic off the bench. The Harden trade is working out after a slow start

Read on Twitter


People here didn't want to trade Trent for him. You can't make this **** up. Now Raps are stuck with "championship piece" Poeltl who can't play in the 4th.

Two tough losses in a row for Houston. They need more from Jalen Green, VanVleet and Jabari Smith had excellent games.

Return to Toronto Raptors
