What's crazy is how easy he makes everything look. On the gamewinner, he got to his spot with a subtle shoulder dip, missed, but calmly tipped it back in as if it was some sort of warmup drill. WCS had no chance right from the start.

For real. Fans here thinking the Raps have no chemistry should just turn on a Philly game. Once Simmons is locked down, they have no idea how to play.


This is 100% FACT. The sixers are a dream match up for the raptors because they can effectively handle Ben. they become headless chickens with him. The Celtics on the other hand are a nightmare because we cannot handle kyrie.

man this whole anth davis situation is embarrasing

he basically told new orleans and their fans FU

and now hes playing and fans gotta sit through that

this goof shoulda requested trade in off-season

NBA should make a rule. We dont condone asking for a trade. If u do there's a big financial pentaly. And If u do it must be in off-season

This is the crap the nba has to clean up

Raptors just got another Nationally televised ESPN game March 1st vs Portland.
I wonder if Siakams big game influenced that. Possibly having Lin could be a ratings draw.

T-Ross is having his best year as a scoring and shooting wing and he still has the hops.

Wish we could bring him back and have him and Ibaka.

Really chippy game, with a wild Steve Kerr ejection. Not sure how much to blame the hated Kenny Mauer. Both teams really were chippy, esp the Warriors who gave off an aura of entitlement. I was thinking, our Raptors are such a bunch of nice guys, why can't the refs see that and give us more breaks?

There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

Coin toss would be nice off the bench I guess.

He always had good potential, and especially how the game is played now, he'd of blown up here too.

That being said I do feel like we won that trade hands down , especially with Ibakas year.

The Lakers could've been really good already but went all crazy trying to get PG and others. Only got Lebron and filled the roster paying KCP, Rondo, Lance, McGee, Beasley. They should've just traded Nick Young. :lol:

With Russell do they draft Tatum instead?

PG Russell - Rondo
SG Tatum - Hart
SF Ingram - Kuzma
PF Lebron - Kuzma -Randle
C Randle/Zubac - Mozgov

Saw it but it’s still unreal. Tracking technology would consider that a “wide open” shot based on how far away Zion was at time of release.

How dare you question his intelligence. He's gonna post 500 different meaningless graphs with stats you've never heard that prove nothing about something that is completely meaningless.

Should've kept it private. Would rather players request trades then just leave in the offseason. At least teams have the opportunity to get something back - the Bosh situation sucked. Also, the Cavs lost the 2nd best player of all-time for nothing.. twice lol.
