Still waiting for Poeltl to magically develop a jumper and unleash his full potential.
What do you mean, he's a 43% shooter from 3 for his career!

Just don't look at the number of attempts . . .
In a no-win argument, the first poster to Let It Go will at least retain some peace of mind

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
Rico Hines runs are back on now. Wonder if any Raptors join

Doubt it. I think since Pascal left Raptors players stopped going. Also they had a mini camp in Spain, which seems to be their new thing.

Think most of the guys took it easy this offseason. Probably just relaxing and decompressing rather than training.

Maybe, but IMO the Raptors have been going ghost with posting summer content for a while now. Especially since we've stopped doing the Rico runs.
I could care less about the Rico runs, but drip feed us something during the summer.

Since it's been so damn quiet this summer, no Raptors (That I noticed), but VJ's there.

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
Our off season sightings have mostly been Gradey playing soccer and some acrobatic flips.

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
Maybe our players and players in general (bc it’s not just our players) have refrained from posting their offseason workouts as much because they usually generate so much critique from people who think they know how players should be training and what they should be working on more than professional trainers. Or people think a minute long video tells the whole story of what the player has been working on all offseason. It’s really a lose lose for the player. You post it and everyone hates/overly critiques a short video or you don’t post anything and everyone thinks you’ve just been siting at home eating chips all offseason.

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
The only players on the Raptors who have consistently posted small like 30 second clips on their IG throughout the offseason are IQ and Shead. And it’s usually them just reposting a short video their trainer posted. Scottie and CMB reposted like 2 short videos at most this offseason. Mamu also reposted like 1 video. But most of our players usually do not really post their offseason workouts. RJ never posts, Jakob deleted his IG, BI never posts etc. Scottie used to post more often but I’m pretty sure the hate he gets anytime he posts his offseason work, especially the hate his trainer gets who he is clearly loyal to, has just made him refrain this summer.

I've seen a bunch of RJ posts - by Drew Hanlen.
He's been working with a lot of other NBA guys.
Poeltl was working out in Austria with a couple of the Raps coaches.

Oh I didn’t know RJ trains with Drew. I’ll have to check that out. Where did you see Poeltl working out in Austria with Raptors trainers? Was that recent? Cause I don’t know of Raptors trainers having IG or posting on there and Jakob seems to have deleted his, but even when he had it he never posted.

Oh yes! I completely forgot about these. I actually did see both of these. I don’t think I realized it was Drew Hanlen RJ was working with in that pic, I was so focused on Maxey lol. And I completely forgot about the Jakob one and it being in Austria. Thanks for these

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
I'm still in the boat that IQ is closer to Maxey than he is to Cam Thomas Kuminga types

Re: Summer Runs and Random Player Sightings
Just saw a Raptors coach on campus at UCLA so there’s probably some guys at the Rico Hines runs now
