This game is like superbowl of tanking. Between this and OKC/DET, this would be huge to lose

I think the Raptors still are better 1 thru 10 even without the guys who are aren’t playing.

Look at all that "rest", I thought they tried to do something to stop "resting".

Also not surprised MCW not able to go, he's tough as hell to finish that last game

No way the Raptors win this. That's not a good G League team.

Tankers are going to be pissed again tonight I think
Fine print disclaimer for Fultz:
I am high on Markelle Fultz. Yes I understand he is not perfect and needs to shoot more and better and turn the ball over less. I would really like to see him play one more year… and I did and he sucks time to move on.

It was nice there for a short while when we didn't have to watch Chasson Randle.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

Chuma makes some excellent passes/decisions out of that post position. I did not expect that to be a skill of his but it is && Ive been thoroughly impressed.

How is this blatant tanking allowed
