PG: Still the CHAMPS!

[bon]

The Siakam slander needs to stop man. Raptors would not be a 2 seed without him, and his defence was still pretty solid for most of the playoff run. He's simply not ready to be the go-to-guy. I believe he will get there. this was always a retool year, a victory lap for the guys who won a chip. Raptors were not suppose to be in a game 7 against a super talented Celtics.

Have some class and have some dignity. you can't win every year and you can win without a superstar, plain and simple.

This.

S*** fans that want to front run when we win but act like douches when we lose.

Smh.

Give me a break. I’ve literally watched 95% of all raptors games ever and this guy was a disgrace. He deserves all the hate he’s going to receive (and there will be a lot). He is the classic example of getting his big contract and falling off a cliff. There’s been tons in NBA history.

What? He got his contract at the start of the season and put up Allstar numbers. He fell off a cliff literally only after getting to the bubble.

Wow. Lowry at presser making it sound like FVV won’t be back. Basically said he can’t wait for FVV to get his money this offseason which means they must have talked and FVV said that’s he going to the highest bidder. Can’t say I’m really disappointed because FVV is not a legitimate PG for a real contender so good luck to him next year . Hope he gets his money that he wants so badly.

I enjoyed his tenure here but this might be a blessing in disguise for us

guys like fred who had to take what they got are rarely loyal. he has suitors out there

Good: we still won a championship last year.

Bad: Siakam. It’s almost demoralizing to see them play so bad. Boston is good defensively, but my goodness that was up there with the worst games they’ve played all season.

[bakafool]

Was a fun run. I'm still proud of our boys. Back to the grind.

Well hopefully he works on his game.

[Brinbe]

went out like that? nah... left a super bad taste in my mouth.

would've been fine losing if the celtics played well, but we beat ourselves. just dumb. bad rotations/lineups, poor execution, very sloppy and just dumb play all-around.

not the team i enjoyed watching all season.

def hope masai retools and doesn't give these guys big contracts. think i'm done with fred in toronto, same with marc. keep serge

pascal can go too, but i doubt anyone wants his contract.

masai got some work to do. we're a long way from contending

We were literally a basket or two in game 7 away from likely making the finals this year. I would say that means we're very close to contending - in fact, we just contended pretty damn well.

breh, that's in the past. next year is a completely different animal. boston will only get better, nets will be a problem. heat will get better. meanwhile, we look like the pre-kawhi raptors. regular season champs but not good enough in the playoffs.

it's literally gonna be the same story every year till masai gets us a real star again

[Tha Cynic]

Classic case of the coach doing things predetermined rather than going by the game. Ibaka played well and Siakam continued to suck, but he benched one and went to the other even though everything screamed to do the opposite.

[SurgeIblocka]

This is why Masai should never have given him the contract last year!!! All our worst fears come to life

[RalphWiggum]

If I had a Siakam jersey I'd intentionally poison myself so I could ****, puje and piss all over it

[rocky_da_best]

It was so bad we'd be better off games 5-7 playing without Siakam on our team. He provided great defense at times but I think we would have managed somehow. He was such a negative on offense that whatever defense he provided, I think it negated that impact. I mean, this board was hard af on Lowry and DeRozan in the past but even they didn't play this **** **** offensively. He was marc gasol on offense bad.

[Matty]

Lets face it we were punching above our weight, if thats the idiom...

Proud of the guys. They gave it a shot.

[Los Manos]

For Pascal this moment will be the making of him. His future is in the balance. I just hope his ego is strong enough. I have no doubt he will put in the work before next season but let’s be in no doubt that this was a humiliating end to the season.

It’s up to him. But he’s a stronger man than I if he can find a way to come back stronger. Brutal performance these last 10 weeks.

[ciueli]

Guys, it's not Siakam's fault that every time he drives to the basket he gets hacked and no call. Tatum shot 10 FTs this game and Siakam got 4, that's the way it's been basically the whole series. No surprise Tatum is the one being championed as this future star.

What are u talking about he couldnt get bunnies, he turned the ball over more than a G league player. Demar is a million times better than him and that is saying alot!

Please tell me you're joking - DeMar is one of the worst defenders in the league, Pascal is at least a very good defensive player. If the refs didn't swallow their whistle when he tries to score around the rim we win this series no question.

[Death Knight]

Play of the game is still the powell layup. I wish I knew what he was thinking

I am never in favor of going anything more than 1 on 1 without back up. With back up, even if you miss or get blocked, your back up teammate can get the offensive rebound and put back. He tried to go 1 on 4 with no back up or trailing teammate. My goodness................

it was months before the bubble bro. teams adjusted to his hot start around dec/jan and since then hes been a volume scorer. 25 shots to score 27 type of player.

many people foresaw his playoff struggles
