It's not just the subs, it's the style.

He's a defensive orientated coach with absolutely no imagination offensively. He runs an overly simplistic offense and that's why Calderon looked so good and Lowry looks iffy at best. He uses "Spacing" because he needs something to bail out his lackadaisical offensive sets.

He's like Jerry Sloan, very basic and to the point. Meanwhile he has a dynamic, athletic team that would work better with a creative offensive system. He's not maximizing his talent. And it's because he doesn't know how.

The raptors need a coach that is creative offensively, guys like Derozan and Lowry need more direction instead of this pound the ball ****. The raps offense is too predictable as well.

It's absolutely appalling just how many breakdowns this team goes through on a nightly basis. Does this man not know how to make adjustments???????? Dear God.

Casey has lost us too many games, it's these type of things that prevent us from ever getting good talent.

Casey is best at what's his known for : Defense

The Raptors play much better defense, like him or not, you can't dispute that.

He was amazing as an assistant to Rick Carlyle and is suited best for that kind of job : a defensive specialist assistant coach, as a Head Coach he just doesn't have enough skills or experience.

I get the feeling the majority of the hate is coming because Val and Ross don't play as much as people would like. I don't agree with alot of the things Casey does but I do agree that we should be playing our best players as much as possible. The playoffs are still a possibility.

It's more than Ross/Val

- Constant chokejobs in the 4th
- Late adjustments
- Aaron Gray guarding KG, Chris Bosh
- Playing Rudy 41mins
- AA
- He's known as a defensive guru yet we are one of the worst defensive teams

That's off the top of my head.

Rudy Gay plays 40+ minutes all the time. He's an athletic freak.

You may want to check that.

Being not "historically bad" does not qualify as playing much better defense.
