Put this game in a time capsule and bury it.

And then never dig it up.

JT with 2 big defensive plays in the last 2 minutes in the 4th.

Forced Dick to fumble the ball and made Quickley step out of bounds.

JT is a solid defensive player.

Even played some Center in this game.

JD dribbles too much.

I don't know if he makes it in the NBA.

The athleticism is there, but the IQ is lacking.

Fun game. Tatum and White.

Shared brain, repeat after me: Torrey Craig is no James Posey. Torrey Craig is no James Posey. Torrey Craig is no James Posey. 3-4 more nights of that, and you can have it back 31to6.

I thought Jordan Franchise had some really good minutes. Joe disagreed. We seem to have that disconnect often.

Raptors will be the turnaround team next season. Lots of athletes, good size and they seem to have bought in to the coaches system.

Their 1st round pick could make them even better.

per 36 stats say otherwise!
Craig: 16.3/6.3/2.1/0.9/1.1 on 44%/38%/81%
Posey: 16.4/6.1/2.4/0.9/0.9 on 45%/36%/80%

advanced:
Craig: 0.11ws/48, 0.4 obpm, 1.5 dbpm, 1.8 bpm
Posey: 0.13ws/48, 0.7 obpm, 1.2 dbpm, 1.7 bpm

so as the stats that I totally just made up clearly show, not a lot of difference between them in my twisted, craven mind

TC gonna knock down those 3s next time baby, there's room on Craig Island and the sea level's only rising in lockstep with the global average!

I'm on the island. I'm just not climbing the knoll that proclaims Posey parity.

And, yeah, I just spoilered your made up stats so nobody has to even bother scanning their eyes past them a second time. And, double yeah, I know you've walked back the comp, but that's just irrelevant at this point. 8-)

look at how Posey knows -- pointing to Craig like that -- this guy gets it
