GT #?? - Wiz @ RapTurds

Eddie has been Order 66'ed by Wittman after 2 quick misses. I wonder if he'll ever play again.
This team plays like ass sometimes.

2 of the shots didn't hit the rim. Still, it was a weird lineup out there to close the game since Sessions, Wall, and Porter are not great 3 point shooters (although Porter was 3-5 from 3 point range tonight).

John's tech didn't help either. You have to be smarter than that.

If Randy won't rile the refs up I don't mind players doing it. The back and fourth in the 4th quarter was good, as well as the comeback but ascribing part of the loss to Wall's tech seems off. We can blame him however for a missed FT.

The game became difficult to win cause of the 2nd quarter. Had to play Wall big minutes and we were running bad offense. We only played two good quarters of basketball tonight, the 1st and 4th.

I don't understand how lazy this team is. They don't have enough talent to coast to victory. They also keep trying some of the most (Please Use More Appropriate Word) offensive sets. First damn play we ran in the 3rd quarter was a Gortat post-up...those don't usually work for us :/

The team systemically has bad BBiq, and I think that is a derivative of poor coaching and development of this offensive/defensive "system". Of course this only compounds EG's blunders. Watching Biyombo annihilate us was caustic.

Stop it. He was on the refs the whole game. What do you want him to tackle them? It was way too late in the game to get a tech when we we were still in it. It was selfish.

Dudley should be launching 6 3's a game. Dude is the best 3 pt shooter in the NBA

Robbed by Zebras. Damn stripeys taking all are jobs and trashing up the streets. Someone oughta do something about those good fer nothin hangers on.

[TheBabyMaker]

Is DeRozan the new James harden, 15 FT. WTF. Dude never barely got touched. Yeah eff Toronto they will lose 1st round. Damn the refs too.

[WallToWall]

replayed/fast-forwarded through about 30 mins of the game. Would have to agree, this one was gifted to the Raps by the refs. Raps got lots of calls that werent called the same for us. Happens. Merry Xmas.

[Dark Faze]

we were pretty much all screaming for biyombo or withey

[TGW]

Yea I rarely complain about the refs, but this game was a damn joke. Despite handing Toronto about 20 free points, we still should have won the game. Dudley had 2 tries and Wall had a try.

Temple's fouled out. Those ticky-tack fouls from the first half came back to bite him.

I get kinda tired of Buck and Phil as well as probably 95% of the other NBA announcers when
they automatically assume a poor offensive player, like GT, must be a good defensive player.
It ain't automatically true.

Blair might have been effective against BB.

I think Wall probably did clip DD's foot on the play where it looked like they didn't touch.
That said, if Wall got the same kind of calls that guys like DD and James-don't breath on me-Hardin,
he'd average 10FTs/gm. TOR did deserve more FTs than us but I'm not sure they deserved 2x the number.

I encouraged by this game in a way that has nothing to do with basketball. I'm might be the only
(or one of the few) fans that noticed the LG OLED TV signs that were courtside. LG will have a Super
Bowl ad for their OLED TVs. I own some stock in the company that is a tollkeeper for OLED technology
so that company, Universal Display, gets money for every OLED TV, Samsung Galaxy/Note phone
(iPhones with OLED are coming)...OLED technology is the $hit. I expect the next 2-5 years to be,
in the words of a well known New Yorker, huuuuge (for OLED). Unless I'm wrong but I don't think so.
Don't believe me? Go to your nearest Best Buy and check out the picture on one of their true OLED TVs.
I don't own one yet, got girls to put through college, but I hope to within a couple years. Perfect black.

Huh. I was hoping for a word from the NBA re: the calls in the last two minutes. I don't see our game listed:

http://official.nba.com/nba-officiating-last-two-minute-report-december-30-2015/

The Association's explanation of the site is wonky:

Below is the league’s assessment of officiated events that occurred in the last two minutes of last night’s games which were within five points at the two-minute mark (and during overtime, where applicable).

WAS was down by 7 at the 2-minute mark. Does that mean the NBA didn't bother to review the last two minutes, even though Dudley hit a J that brought us within 5 at the 1:58 mark?

http://espn.go.com/nba/playbyplay?gameId=400828364&period=4

I hope that's not the case, as that seems like a silly rule. The game was within 1 in the final minute of the game. But, I can't think of another reason why the NBA didn't bother releasing a report.
