I love pissing off Celtic and Knick fans by busting their ass on the court. I hope they go through it this season.

Hope Scottie plays.

Would be a bad look if he doesn't.

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

What was the reason he didn't play against the Kings? Been too locked in on the MLB postseason to care much about NBA preseason other than tuning into the games to see how we look so far, and I was half watching a stream without sound the other day because I had the Jays post-game celebration on the big screen then Phillies/Dodgers after. I didn't even realize Scottie didn't play until midway through the 3rd. I thought he was just having a quiet night again and/or his minutes were very limited because of preseason. :lol:

Josh Lewenberg said it was left knee tendinitis, so it doesn’t seem like he was just resting. Now he probably plays through something like that in the regular season, but no point in pushing it in preseason. I expect Scottie and Jakob to probably be out again with maybe someone else joining them just for rest

We need locked in Scottie tonight.

When CMB blocked that 3pt shot then had the big and 1 dunk last game, Scottie saw his job flash before his eyes.

Time to come correct.

Sit Scottie and Jakob the rest of preseason, these games don’t matter. Maybe Ingram too since he’s in midseason form.

If Scottie needs to sit the rest of preseason after scoring 0, and playing 20 minutes in the first preseason game at the age of 24... He's cooked.

If this fanbase supported demar DeRozan playing negative defense and putting up horrendous shooting splits and playoff performances for years but won't support Scottie at 24 years old based on his trajectory, this fan base is cooked.

So this has turned into a summer league game?
When will we just change the name of 25 of the 30 teams to the Washington Generals?

Please advise….

DeRozean/Lowry:

Led the Raptors to be a top team in the east for years, reached the CF Finals once and have reached the 2nd round a few times.
LeBron was just their boogie man.

Barnes:

...........



So please dont compare those two, as long as Barnes has nothing to show for. I know you dont like holding him accountable, but the lack of growth in his game is concerning.
