I know people who spent enough money for all-in vacation just to go to Game 1.

I love Lowry but man there's got to be something wrong with this guy.. He just looks so afraid and reluctant in the playoffs. it's like a completely different player

I just want Casey gone, once and for all. Any other coach, and this team is on another level because we would have a coach who holds players' properly accountable.

Took care of my personal errands today and only watched the 4th.

We're officially a team of fraudsters. Only good for the regular season.

Can't support this ****. Really can't. Especially when we make the same stupid mistakes we've failed to adjust to since the first playoff series with this group against Jason Kidd's Nets.

If we let Lowry walk then we need to.rebuild. This team isn't going anywhere with Derozan as its only high volume scorer.

31 year old decompressing notorious playoff choker? Pretty much a no brainer

Raps looked fine without him... Sign somebody else and get a respectable coaching staff

YES we proved it when he was hurt that we can still be good without him. just gotta get a half decent vet to be back up or third point guard

Yeah i'm moving on from Lowry this offseason and a new coach. This team is a fraud team. They will only get you close enough to break your heart again and again.
Any time y'all wanna see me again

Its like those guys don't factor in playoffs is a whole nother level. they think RS games are no different than the Playoffs.


So does our team. We've been the regular season effort champs for a few years now. So when the playoffs come, we don't have another gear to elevate to.

People will blame Lowry, but it's everyone. Nobody has that extra level they save for the playoffs on this entire roster. JV looks like he does in series when the opposing team has small weaker centers, but when not, we have no one who can step up.

There's two ways to look at it
1. They should save their true 100% for the playoffs and hopefully it gives us that boost we need.
2. Concede that this core will always have limitations and just enjoy our regular season for what they are.

Our "stars" are so inconsistent in the playoffs. If Lowry isn't gonna show up consistently, then we gotta get JV the ball more to cover for that lack of scoring.

We signed Derozan so we can trade him.

A kid who was playing just his 7th playoff game owned him on both ends of the court. You can't excuse that ****.
