That possession by ant to not pass it to the cutter ahead and take a long doink 3 was bad.

But then again would he get killed for passing it?

Idk.

He's still not ready. 2nd straight year he couldn't get the job done.

He made the correct reads when OKC was loading up on him. He played a good game


He has had a nice second half. He failed to assert himself in the first.

Anthony Edwards needs to be more aggressive in attacking the rim. I don’t understand why he shoots so many threes

I know of some stars that would kill for that kind of help.

How much of that was due to Edwards passing out OKC triple teams?

Like I said in another thread, Ant is a good player but he's overrated. There's another level he could reach to be a legitimate top 5 MVP player but he's not there yet but he's treated by many like he's already reached that level.

This late game execution by Minny is tragic
Kids played football, drove cars, went to school, celebrated life; while soldiers, heroes, their brothers struggled to find their way home from war; and young boys watched and grew wiser in their dreams.

Lol the SGA slander is ridiculous


This is starting to feel like the African players slander on Raptors' boards. Just irrational hate picking them apart for every little thing.

I love Doris but she sucks at color commentary. They need to get Legs in that seat.

Not legs. Not Miller -
