BI is not good enough for all these talks I am sorry. His numbers on the season are awful and he does not have top tier gravity to make up for it

What does Keith Pelley really know about basketball. Problem is he's out of touch and wont have the foresight to initiate the firings of the GM & Coach. Bobby wont get fired because it's an indictment in their own decision making process as they just gave him the keys to the car.

Trump powered Wizards beat the Raptors. Annexation imminent.

They missed a block.

Lost by 20+ to the Wizards. Bobby needs to fire Darko soon or fire himself for not getting the right players. Gotta be one or the other.

Honestly, something has to be done about our development staff.

What players are tangibly improving? Our shooters, if anything, get worse...

Lol like its literally that simple

It literally is that simple if anybody on the team tried defensively at all for the entire game.

I just don’t trust you if that’s what you took from this game :lol:

I swear yall just look at the PPG the opposition scores to determine the quality of D we played. I’ve seen us play good D and get 130 put up on us and other times play bad D and hold a team to 100.

This was far from a bad defensive performance, regardless of what the scoreboard says. WAS hit a LOT of tough looks. Which props to them, but for some reason this board is incapable of recognizing when teams we play against just play well.

It has been a struggle for a while now. That’s kind of the problem when you have a stretch like we did from 2014 to 2019 or so - we got our front office and coaching staff (both NBA and 905) get absolutely picked over

Thibs and Malone are right there. If we're serious about winning then make the obvious move.

He’s a watered down version of DeRozan with far worse defense, playmaking ability and overall effort on both ends.

We were the 4th best Defensive team in the league and they're the 3rd worst offensive team in the league and dropped 138 on us. Probably don't need to overthink an outlier game like this.

Raptors do this too often. Don't play players who are sick.

Not sure what being the 4th best defensive team in the league going into the game has to do with nobody on the team trying defensively for today’s game

Scottie is sick, so I will give him a pass toight......but he does need to learn how to bring it every night.

No RJ
No Yak
No CMB
Flu Barnes

Winning was always in doubt

What are the Raptors supposed to do about that?

If he’s too sick to play, it’s on him to tell the trainers and coaches that. Like CMB did.

He didn’t.
