What kind of trophy do that give out for the preseason cup?

63 without Brown or White! Loved Zarren on the broadcast. Minott looked good again.

PP about to have a great season

Excellent run by Pritchard. His ability to find his own offense has grown by leaps and bounds over the last year.

Joe teaching those guys a lesson on the importance of rebounding paid off.

Simons is just terrible. He is clueless on defense and he slows it down every time he touches the ball. He would be great just shooting in an empty gym but in a real game he's virtually unwatchable.

After getting 3 Fouls halfway through the 1st Qtr, I'm wondering a bit about him.

I wouldn't wonder too much about one half of basketball in a preseason game..especially for a guy who is acclimating to a new team, new system, etc.

Yeah. We have a problem with Simons. And the money just makes it worse.

PP is a poor man's J Brunson.

Obviously love PP's game, but outside of him, I really like Boucher, Minott and Hugo, and I think that'll be a theme all year. Simons did not impress. Baylor has been better tonight because he's not trying to do too much. I already have a guy that I suspect is going to piss me off the whole year, but I won't name him yet because it's only game 2.

Pretty fun half of preseason basketball ... not sure what's goin on with Queta and Joe, are they having a fight? Joe puts him in and takes him out 100 seconds later...

Love the lawnmower nickname

I bet the Raps board is mad about Boucher so that's pretty fun

Riverwalk2021 · Post #596 » by **Riverwalk2021** » Sat Oct 11, 2025 12:18 am

Baylor is uninspiring. Much rather Hugo/Minott get minutes ahead of him.

Curmudgeon · Post #597 » by **Curmudgeon** » Sat Oct 11, 2025 12:21 am

Well, I now understand why the Celtics had no luck trading Simons.

Kind of hard to judge given this Raptors team out there is G-league level but really liked what I saw from Minott, think he'll be in the rotation.

Hope to see more from Queta, we need a real big or its gonna be a long year in the paint

Hugo makes his mistakes, but again, he played well imo.

redslastlaugh · Post #600 » by **redslastlaugh** » Sat Oct 11, 2025 12:24 am

He does have 5 assists. But, also, sometimes he looks like he can't get anywhere with his handle and athleticism and the shot isn't looking good

With the way we're playing so fast, it's a shame we couldn't have kept JD Davison to just see. Davison has been getting minutes in Houston and just a shame we couldnt have kept him
