Whoever is kicking Pascal when he’s down is a moron.

He struggled after he couldn’t practice due to a once in a lifetime pandemic. He’s gonna get in the gym and work every day to get better.

This offseason is going to arguably be the most important in our franchise. How do we keep the young core we have, while preserving flexibility to get one of the biggest free agents in the game in 2021? It’ll be fascinating to watch.

Context is important mr leafz

He stated long he has gone is 2 weeks in the summer , do you think circumstances prevent him from working on his game?

He worked every year, under protocol if they had no access to a hoop how do you expect to get shots up, man cant afford a basketball court in his house yet .


Context

Private gym. Come on now. Every player had access if they wanted it.

If OHL hockey players could get ice time, an NBA max player could get a gym to work out.

Can’t believe there are people on here defending him. Truly insane.

You really think he won't work on his game and come back a better player?


Kyle just said he would come back stronger. Kyle is really doing a manly job in a long postgame here now.
Great leader great captain

Idk what to say, tonight's game just proved how important of a guy like Kawhi was to the team because he'd be someone who could hit key shots.

Siakam was just straight garbage tonight but I think he'll bounce back and be a better player next season. FVV played too much hero ball but his shots did seep us in the game. Gasol played way too long then he should have, Ibaka should have came in.

Ultimately despite all that, we really had a shot had we grabbed the rebound after those two missed FT's but w.e it's over now. I think FVV is a goner and quite frankly he's just not a guy who can create plays. Real interested to see how Masai proceeds.

This is such a bull excuse. I lost fat, gained muscle, shot hoops multiple times a week during the entire quarantine while my gym was closed. And I’m a nobody with not even a tenth of his resources, wealth, nor reasons to put in work. If the man wanted to come into the season-resumption bubble in shape and was willing to put in the work, he would have.


Yup it's a BS excuse...

They've been playing for around 2 months now more then enough time to shake off the rust he progressively
got worse as the series and playoffs went on.

The coaching staff could not rescue him it had nothing to do with the Celtics D or the injury he was missing
point blank layups, bunnies and floaters right under the rim and taking horrible shots was bad on scramble
defense.

Humbling experiences happen all the time. What defines you is what you learn from them. Pascal has the drive to learn from it.

Dude. We literally just lost a game seven and Pascal was clearly struggling more than anyone. Let them vent. Save the rational speak until tomorrow.

He fully deserves the flack he’s getting. It’s the NBA playoffs. Man up.

No way, Siakam was someone who was actively making it tough on Tatum/Brown to score. DD would get ruthlessly targeted by a brilliant coach in Stevens, and he would give us the same #s as Siakam

BOS in 4 imo if we swapped them


lol sure.


Be objective here. These Celtics, coached by Stevens, and having length and grit with Tatum, Brown, Smart, Theis, Williams, etc. They're easily one of the best defenses we've seen in the postseason.

The 7 seed Pacers, , corpse of Luol Deng, the 5 seed Wizards, LeBron's atrocious Cavs that featured scrubs like JR and washed up Korver, all locked up DD

Like it's pretty obvious DD would get his **** kicked in by these Celtics lol

He has really improved since his Raptor days. Is pretty clutch now down the stretch. Was killing it for the Spurs in the bubble and had the most fourth quarter points. Best shooting seasons with his TS% at 60. But I still think we would lose or it being very close. You see Siakam's defence on Tatum and Brown was really good and gave us a chance. DeMar I think wouldn't be that amazing because the Celtics have so many great defenders. Sure I can see him going off but at the same time I can see him getting shut down. It would still be incredibly hard even with his improvements especially length which DeMar struggles against.

Jesus, 130M. For someone who got locked up by Jaylen Brown and some scrubs off Bostons bench.

Thou I do blame everything on Pascal because he couldn't give me 1 good game but i'm not a harsh person. I always give someone a second chance if they comeback with the mindset of FK all you haters!!!!!!!. The only chance I give him is to come back with a consistent jumper and back to his inside game. We know he can shoot 3s so stop trying to learn how to shoot at a high clip

Anyways, If there is one person we should give appreciation to then that is OG. Once he learns how to dribble+handle and create shots then WATCH OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We ain't going to win too many games with our back court going 13 for 35 and only having 10 assists. Turnovers and points off TO and not making bunnies that lead to transition points. That's the entire game right there.

Some real terrible shot selection all around. Why did they have to keep trying to drive on Brown, whether it was Lowry, FVV, Powell or Siakam. Why didn't they stick to rotating and picking on Theis and Kemba Walker. That was just a big mistake.

End of a great era of Raptors basketball. Great series. Bad outcome. Love this team still.

Return to Toronto Raptors
