Nurkic is shutting Vuc down tonight. That was a good pickup by Portland

Yeah you guys need a Center that fits your team better. No reason Vucevic should be getting so many post touches inside when you have a perimeter of Ross/Mario/Fournier/Gordon

Is ppg slipping how you define regression? Because his rebounding and his defense especially is much improved since that era.


I thought he was a better rebounder but yeah his defense is better now. He just seemed to hit those long 2s with more regularity back then.

He usually plays better than this.

In his first game as a Magic Ross has already made more free-throws than in his last 10 games as a Raptor :lol:

So I tune in and find the Magic death lineup, EP/Four/Mario/AG/Vuc.

I see the problem. Nurkic is huge. Still though...don't throw up junk at the rim. Play smart

I think yall are overreacting a bit.

I think you think we only watch the magic. Ross has been in the league for a while. Obviously Dipo does things better than Ross but we're overreacting because we're saying Ross is better at ONE thing? hmmmm....


Yeah cause it's one game. We've seen Oladipo have great games playmaking too. Being consistent is the key. I like what I'm seeing from Ross so far.
