Bruce Brown with a message for fans: I'm going to really hoop

Says he is a rich better player than he showed last season because of the bad knee.

Healthy now, he might have looked like he didn't want to be in Toronto, but he really does want to...

His teammates seem to like him, and he seems like a decent guy. I'm willing to give him a chance.

He could really help the bench for the time being, and at least allow some of the young guys to get more development time down with the 905, where they should probably be at the moment.

Alright, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt. Let's see if he shows up. Probably also helps that the vibes are good right now.

Just play hard and don’t publicly beg to play for Thibs again. Do that and I’m sure Raptors fans will cheer you on.

I never understood why people thought that. Projecting their own insecurities onto their interruption of everything and getting their silly opinions disproportionately magnified.

I think there's a lot to like about what a healthy bruce brown could add to our current roster and how he would fit...it's always been sort of nutty how crazy some "fans" can get on players justified or not...I just hope we see the DEN variation of BB and whatever comes from that whether it's with us or as an asset in a trade

Jk. Hope he does good off the bench. Agbaji and Dick have earned his playing time, so he will have to work for it.

Mitchell/Shead
Brown/Walter
Dick/Battle
Mogbo/Chris
Fernando/Kelly

Not a bad bench.

looks like he reads realgm lol....but seriously if there is a good offer on the table esp including draft assets you have to take it...we need as many bites at the apple as we can get to draft that superstar.

You really got Bruno in front of Kelly?

Sounds believable....it's also in his best interest to play good so a contender is interested in trading for him, and he's also going to be a UFA

Just noticed, why is he wearing Battle’s jersey

Post #15 » by **Reeko** » Sat Nov 23, 2024 7:40 pm

Alright, I’m glad he communicated that to the fans. I hope he shows us why we were wrong about him last year.

I'm glad the players are at least very engaged and have a high energy to them going on.

I like the main bench lineup of:

Mitchell
Brown
Dick
Kelly / Boucher
Mogbo

I like Mogbo at the 5 as he can get offensive rebounds. Kelly can space the floor with his shooting.

Either or. Depends on matchups I guess.

NO,NO - I want him to start and play well - we need to pump up his trade value and it's in his interest to play well and move to a contender.
