Walsh in before Tillman.
Tillman must be slacking in Practice?

Uncharted territory.

Since 2018, we've been dying for Banner 18.

Now that it's mission accomplished, it feels different.

Jamal Shead, the Raptors backup PG, is a dawwwggg. Dude is like a mini Marcus Smart. I like his game even if he don’t shoot it. He also grew up in my hometown and so I’m rooting for him.

Hauser is impressive.
Much bettter than many of us thought, including myself.

Your expectations are too high. Team is statistically neck and neck with last years pace. And that’s without KP

True confession: I like these jerseys.

I noticed this too but didn't really know how to describe it. It seems to manifest itself on the court in less ball sharing and more ISO crap. Body language isn't bad in any way but isn't as good as last year's either.

Or maybe I'm just splitting hairs.

We’re getting good looks just not making them.

Bruno Fernando twisted his ankle.

A confession is an acknowledgment of a sin.

Raps don’t even have anyone besides Barrett and Dick. And we’re still somehow struggling to get separation.

Can we play some defense this season..

playing with an edge is missing and we are settling for 3s way too often..

Not having KP is just a terrible excuse since we have had huge talent advantages even without KP.

Cs really have a soft schedule first two months. My hope is we do step up our game once we play the better teams.

Wow. Raptors are more depleted.

Jaylens three ball is awful

Dray said let JB shoot wide open 3s, guess it took time for that strategy to work?
