I’m rarely here, but will stop by for some Raptor slander.

- I’ve never seen a franchise so happy to be a treadmill team.
- Raptors are strange, because most treadmill teams are playoff teams. This Raps squad is running the treadmill as a play-in team
- Matt Devlin and Jack Armstrong are the worst broadcasting team in the league. By far.
- Scottie Barnes, Siakam and Schroder are the ugliest trio in the league.

Went with JB hit a clutch layup and found Kornet for a dunk. Turnovers were bad but great overall game

Wasn’t white’s best game from three (he’s finally human) but winning plays everywhere

Who will win VC, so close so far.

Raps aren't making the play-in allowing guys like Kornet to go off for 20 points. That's wild

KORNET CAME AND DOMINATED, especially since he hasn't played in a long time and after they went small! SAVED our asses multiple times!

I voted... TEAM... duh!!

Turnovers are going to happen, as much as everyone despises them. Raps just made him uncomfortable in the second half and that’s not something he deals with on a consistent basis, so whatever lol.

You just know if they won that game they would’ve talked so much **** even if it was against the Celtics C team :lol:

They’re so irrelevant now

CP to Kornet

Brown would’ve got the VC had he not reverted to Jaylen of last year in the second half although that lob to Kornet late was nice.

Just for future reference, can we stop giving the ball to Jrue late to shoot free throws ?

I really don't think it JB Fault by the second half. They had adjusted to our scrubs and Brown had to do more, it was a disastrous start of the 4th quarter that made it close with JB on the bench. Then not getting a stop.

Kornet and Queta are our Hakeem and Ralph Sampson. We might be able to run some 4 big lineups if they keep this up.

This Derrick White Lovefest from the media has gotten weird and icky iwbh. Enough already. Let the man live quietly.

Big shout out to Jaylen Brown and Sam Hauser for their 9 defensive rebounds each.

Gotta go Luke and JB. White is great and finally getting his flowers nationally but 5/19 is a really rough shooting night and that foul at the end was unnecessary aggression. I was neck and neck with him and JB deciding between the 7 turnovers and the rough shooting but definitely going Lucas no matter what.

I voted Jaylen Brown and Luke Kornet. Luke fumbled a few rebounds but made enough significant plays to really stand out. He actually has trade value. I often wonder if Kornet could be traded for a physical player like Andre Drummond (who only makes 3M+) with some sort of draft compensation. A more physical player would work better against Embiid in Philly; GIannis, Brook Lopez and Bobby Portis in Milwaukee; Jokic, Porter and Gordon in Denver or Gobert, Towns & Anthony Edwards in Minnesota.

Brown was the best overall player in the game. He has really turned things around. The effort he is giving is outstanding.

outrebounding them 52-38 on the second night of a b2b with our two best bigs sitting is a pretty huge statement about this team's mindset. they corrected what they did wrong last night & gave way better effort on the glass

I know this is a bit of a running joke but he made about seven passes tonight that would have been forced shots/drives last year.

He'll never be able to go left but he's seeing the game way better.

Whites shooting was terrible. JB smokes it.

Sam dominating the glass. As we all expected.
