There are two areas of public life that have normalized question dodging behaviour: politics and sports. In politics it should be unacceptable for obvious reasons... and while sports is just entertainment, it is completely fueled by the engagement of fans. So why is it okay for coaches and players to give so many generic answers in light of complete failure? Own up to **** and lay out even a basic plan to succeed.

Dude, they're a 106.6 OffRtg and a 104.1 DefRtg. That's a 2.5 NetRtg! Better than our starters and above league average! Keep playing them! Don't even take them off the floor! Context doesn't matter, they outperform their opponents!

THE RAPTORS HAD THE 3RD BEST OFFENSE IN THE NBA THE COACHES KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING! BENCH VAL!


lmao… this guy gets it…

of course some people would suggest you're just making up delusional fantasy stories… keep on keeping on with that narrative there buddy. stats don't lie… lmao...

seriously, i kept saying this in the gt but i could not understand for the life of me why, with the game on the line and a quarter to win he plays the one lineup that has been getting destroyed all series: lowry,lou,gv,pat,hansbrough… you have a one quarter that you need to win and you start it off with this ****? the lineup that has been getting destroyed every second quarter so far this series… a lineup that consists of a **** kyle lowry, a bricktastic duo of lou and gv and two bigs who can't rebound and are useless offensively because the guards have no idea/refuse to get them the ball… these are the types of things that make you realize how much casey has failed this team… its not all his fault, but i'd say at least half of it is…

another thing though, as **** as the raps have played all series, i have never once blamed reffing… but this was such a terribly officiated game… we totally got shafted throughout… valanciunas is fouling everyone apparently, for the slightest shoves… like it's bull stuff, stuff that barely affects the outcome of the play… and for some reason the wizards are getting away with everything… guys are getting bumped, no call, wizards do the same thing, foul on raps… that gortat and 1 in the fourth was absolutely horrible… how do you look at the replay and legitimize that play? he fouled him on the floor, they call continuation and count the basket even though the shot clock expired BEFORE he even got a shot up? wow man… we get 5 quick fouls in the fourth and proceed to get nothing afterwards… meanwhile, the same thing happens to the wizards in the second quarter or third quarter, and they're getting bull loose ball fouls leading to free trips to the line… so ridiculous man…

this is the kind of **** that I'm talking about when i say getting to the free throw line isn't a skill… refs can control the game anyway they want…

Watching the last PP clutch shot is just painful, Wall gets by Lowry, fine, Amir goes to help, fine.... but Patterson, for some inexplicable reason decides to just stand in the key and wait for Wall while Paul floats to the 3 pt line WIDE open... Never mind that Amir had the angle covered.... Patterson completely f'd up.

Lowry/Derozan were getting so much hype as being the 2nd best backcourt in the league and not just from Raptors fans. I don't know if Wall/Beal are the 2nd best backcourt in the league, but they have certainly taken a giant #2 all over Lowry and Derozan.

Lowry has been really bad this series, but the real take-away is that you shouldn't build your offense on the assumption that Lowry and Demar will carry it like they're Jordan and Pippen.

I have not yet given up on Kyle. His play last few months was atrocious but for him i still have hope. That is about all from this roster I would keep.

I know people are angry but at this point its just depressing.. just when everything was looking up finally after suffering for years.. it feels like we're back at square 1. Gotta stop letting this team mess with my emotions.. it just feels like we wont ever be good enough to even win a first round series.

See if the Raptors faced the Bucks, you cant really say that the Referees are shafting the Raptors because they do not have any so called "big names" to give star calls to. Its the playoffs and the Raptors are the only ones being called for so many touch fouls. What happened to the physicality of the playoffs? Oh right, doesent apply to the Raps, they are just "foul" fiends.

The team is not good enough when it counts -- post season.

Must be reconfigured. Need legit big man.

I put alot of the blame on Masai for putting us through this ordeal -- creating hope for great things only to self-sabotage it all by not finding some help inside. We all knew it had to be done yet Masai did nothing. Perhaps he was thinking further ahead but even so, the damage this has done to our core players psyche (and us fans!) will be tough to recover from.
