Look at Pascal man. Apparently not even good enough to be a #2 option. Inspirational.

OG had a horrible game 1. Horrible in multiple ways.



He missed up a couple plays. But hey.. whatever you need to tell yourself.

He honestly wasn’t that great overall…

In game 1 of this series.

Knicks wouldn't get past Celtics without him.

I don't get it...isn't OG supposed to be a great defender? He's letting Pascal get anything he wants. 200 million for this and single digit scoring? I'm happy we don't have to pay for that...

Lol yah i am the one spinning it.

He missed a wide open dunk that would've won the game with 35 seconds left. He missed a free throw with 7 seconds left. And he turned the ball over on the possession that sealed the loss. Aside from that....he shot 5 for 19 and missed a wide open layup.

Yet I'm the one who "needs to tell myself something".

I'm glad you can admit it to yourself. Congratulations on the personal growth.

Maybe other teams should have offered more?

Credit Masai for turning it into Walter, Ochai and Ingram

I mean he missed a FT that allowed Pacers to go to OT, got blocked by Pascal in clutch, then he had a critical TO in OT when he threw a bad pass. His box score also was not great.

Now he's getting dominated by Pascal again in G2. When Pascal is on him he doesn't even look at the basket.

Pascal was probably cooking all the other raptors in practice every day and wondering why they were tryna push him aside for Barnes + hesitating to give him the max.

In hindsight, he was right. Though I was amongst those posters saying it was a mistake to lose him and OG.

Second game where Milller has shouted out the 2019 Raptors. I think people are finally coming around to how good that team was.

He's getting switched off him on a lot of these buckets from Siakam or just not on the floor at all

this is the same Siakam we've seen with the Raptors....he's not doing anything new or surprising

Return to Toronto Raptors
