Missed the game watching the Jays game but with the vibes of this thread, I thought the Raptors lost :lol:

I don't think anybody is really celebrating after this....but it's nice not to be all the way at rock bottom, still close to it though

Start Mamu

He looks pretty lost defensively, probably not grasping our schemes well yet which is normal for a rookie.

Agreed.

Any other team selling a big though? I can’t see it.

Should have won comfortably but losing would have been embarrassing so it's good to avoid that at least.

what are we trying to say?

He's a better 3 point shooter. Otherwise he's a worse player.

You're not an idiot...you can understand when auto correct takes over and what I mean..

Is he though? Gradey is Mr almost.

He’s almost a decent shooter, he seems like he can shoot, but in reality he isnt great at it.

He seems like a dynamic scorer but he doesn’t finish, he looks great doing it sometimes, but it never actually translates to buckets.

He tries really hard on defence, but it’s some of worst in the league. Maybe he’ll get stronger? Maybe he’ll defend better - Maybe maybe maybe… haven’t seen it this far, looks unlikely.

Good to know we’re better than Mobley + scrubs. Had me worried there for a bit…

I said it before I’ll say it again. Battle > Gradey.

Cavs are lottery level with their injuries. This game should never have been that close. Very underwhelming performance by the Raptors

PushDaRock · Post #292 » by **PushDaRock** » Sat Nov 1, 2025 2:04 am

Battle really bailed them out but it was nice to have a closer in Ingram to go to late game that you feel confident will get you a decent look.

ForeverTFC · Post #293 » by **ForeverTFC** » Sat Nov 1, 2025 2:05 am

Also, it’s never been more clear that RJ needs to go. We need a 3+D guard beside IQ. It won’t work otherwise.

It's funny how little Battle plays, for how poor we shoot.

I suggested gafford earlier. I can see Dallas moving on if the season goes in the toilet.

Mobley looks like a true 20ppg scorer now

Start Ochai. Been saying it for months.

IQ/Shead
Ochai/RJ
Ingram/Battle
Barnes/CMB
Poeltl/Mamu

Should be the rotation
