What do the contracts have to do with it?

We didn't win comfortably and please take context into account...their roster was heavily depleted.

Yup but still if you're going point out missing players and not point out the starting center..

This is the NBA. You can’t expect to be 100% healthy every game. Should we not expect our team at 95% health beat a team missing >50% of its points production?

But you have no issue pointing out one teams missing players but not the other.

Curious..

I have no idea what you’re insinuating or trying to get at.

This is the Raptors forum. We’re in the game thread. We’re all well aware that Poeltl isn’t playing. Should I put in a “*Poeltl is out” disclaimer on every post?

You wont get anything back, for one. You also don't remove the problem.

Can only beat the teams in front of you.

If Yak was healthy the team could be 4-0...

Mitchell didn't play boss.

Neither did Jarrett Allen, Darius Garland or Max Strauss it’s Mobley and bench players out there

I'm not going to go bragging about this Win, but I'm not going to feel sorry for them either after all our injuries last season.

Imagine bragging about beating a team missing 3 of its 4 best players (one of which being their best player and at minimum their 2 best scorers) lol

WhErE tHe HaTeRs aT?!? lol

If he is moved, it's most likely for another player also on a rookie contract that could use a change of scenery.

Why couldn’t you trade him for another rookie contract guy?

I have felt that way for 10 months now.

If you're going to point out the one team being hit with Injuries..yeah I kinda expect the same response for your team.

Not sure how people are struggling with this..

Why is IQ the player you are wanting to keep?

Yeah. I think IQ is the bigger problem.

So a guy less talented?

If Gradey is only going to get touches as a spot up shooter then you're better off playing Battle. Gradey really doesn't get the opportunity to show his floor game with the current offense.

One team was missing 4 of its starters, including its two top scorers. The other was missing its 23mpg C.

Surely we both recognize that one team was at a massive disadvantage here, right? If we can’t beat Mobley + 4 bench players comfortably while missing Poeltl, what exactly are we doing? I thought we were supposed to have expectations again this year.

You can see the worry on his face. After the Battle 3 you could see him frowning

Gradey is the perfect example of a player that was given too much too soon. Minutes that weren't earned. Commercials. Etc

Now reality hits.
