GT: Raptors @ NYK (MSG) - SAT 7:30PM [on TSN] 

Post#1 » by Don_Draper » Fri Jan 19, 2024 2:58 pm

I haven't made one of these in a while. But I really love this new team. TONS of upside and I think our future is super bright no matter what happens the rest of the way this year.

This is going to be a GREAT game to watch. RJ and IQ return to MSG with Raptors facing one of all time best players to put a Raptors jersey on, OG!!!

Both teams will fight to prove they won that trade. Should be a hell of a game!

LETS GO RAPTORS!!!

Damn, OG might be guarding Barnes. How the turntables have turned.

i hate that we have watch this team w/o yak. having no center makes this game almost impossible to win. need some nuclear 3 point shooting. og guarding scottie is going to be fun.

Need IQ and RJ to go HAM on their former team. Scottie will have a harder time if guarded by OG and catching elbows from Randle.

I think this is going to be an L, unless we go nuclear with our 3 point shooting. OG is probably going to lock up Scottie. Would be a very good early test and a learning experience for Scottie as the guy.

Likely an L but will be fun to watch BBQ in MSG. Hopefully RJ and IQ torch their former team

Scottie vs OG will be weird

According to the most recent reports, Jakob should be reevaluated within the next few days. Would be nice to have him back in a week

If Flynn actually sees playing time (doubtful), it will be hilarious watching us target him on every play.

lol the week of reunions continues. Hopefully IQ/RJ will be motivated to show out coming back to MSG. And you know Scottie will always bring it in big games like this.

OG going off for 47 (minutes).

Don't expect Brown to look nearly as good as against the Bulls with pure natural flow because he'll have had a practice or two to learn Darko's system and have "pass it to Dennis, look for Dennis" burned into him.

IT IS SHAME


I am most looking forward to the Boucher vs. Precious bench minutes aka the Gabara vs. Gigan of the Godzilla universe.

Biggest game of the season. Anybody know if we're getting Purtle back? We'll need him or some guy named Hartenstein is going to f us up.

OG will make it tough for Barnes to get where he wants, hopefully he doesn't settle for the threes.

Even then, expect him to have a few bad games to get back into game-shape.

OG career high

Does Brown get left in NY and we bring home Grimes + Fournier + 1st?
