Man Toronto is gonna score 150 unless they feel bad for us. Can't believe this defensive effort to start the half.

I agree but even a Pop coached team stay true to principals. I don’t see a consistency of it. It should stick regardless of who’s on the floor.


Well, my only thing to this is that the consistency isn't there because you're not dealing with much talent to begin with. This is the worst roster we've had in a few years now, it's hard for me to expect much. Outside of LeVert, Allen, Johnson, and TLC (who has come back down to earth), are we really even working with anything?

You can make a legit argument that if Nurse played his bench for 90% of these games, we would still get swept. that's how awful this roster is. we've played above and beyond all expectations.

The Raptors roster isn’t exactly world beaters if they were on the Knicks or Kings. Coaching and structure does matter even with lesser talent.

Toronto might want to be easy with shoving people while they're moving, we have nothing to lose here.

eh... not sure there was that much of a push by FVV with the left arm... I thought originally it was Musa’s full steam losing balance after being wrapped up...

Maybe he’ll blow up for 40 pts?

He's playing out of position. I'm not even judging him here.

That was a bitch ass move, Van Vleet. Dude straight pushed him while trying to foul.


I’d like to see Donta Hall come in and set a couple hard screens.

Seems like he jacks up threes constantly and doesn’t regularly make them. He’s just lucky Levert was setting him up for easy buckets under the rim..

Don’t want him spotting for 3s... either....

Miss the old days of him running back door cuts, going strong at the rim... actually playing big and using his tenacity in the right way...

The PHX suns are at home but our depleted team is in the playoffs... kinda infuriating... makes no sense...

Should’ve been if a team cannot bring X% of the original roster into the bubble they are pardon from participation...
