We had Tony Brothers and Michael Smith for the Denver and Utah games and Pascal got shut out at the free throw line, and the board spends half their energy ****ing about how he's a waste of money. New ref crew and 7FTA, whole new Pascal.

Good on Kyle for not letting Jason Goldenberg get away with nonsense early. He was yelling at him for about 10 minutes straight, and that changed the game in the 2nd quarter. The Lakers just faded.

nobody talks about Pascal whenever he has a good game either

The Lakers commentators talked about how the hemlines of shorts are starting to creep back up. But they noted Lowry was having none of that. :lol:

BTW, the Lakers crew were totally excellent tonight, calling the action in a detailed way, no stupid stories, keeping us informed as to the foul situation, and being completely objective with the fouls called and uncalled. They noted several times when Raptors got the short end of the stick from the refs.

That's why I don't mind these late night games. I just watch the opposing team's feed the next morning on LP. No commercials, done in an hour, and I learn a LOT more about the game.

Yup. Raptors Offense with Pascal, Fred and Kyle on court 114.4. Raptors Offense with only Pascal on court 114. He's the team's best offensive player this year.

There's 31 players that average more than 34 minutes this year. Siakam is 8th overall in net rating on that list.

Kawhi
Murray
Jokic
Irving
Young
Luka
Randle
Pascal
Fred

Fred, Pascal and Ingram are the only ones on a team with a sub.500 record. The guys that get the most heat this year aren't the problem. It's literally that they have the ball the most and fans are ballwatchers that don't read the game beyond makes and misses.

Didn’t watch this game but glad pascal had a good game against good albeit struggling competition.

Still wanna see him put more consistency together though. Maybe this is the start of that.

That was a good effort by pascal. He had the mid range jumper going and Kyle got him by the ft line area a few times. One game doesn’t sway me however we can’t react emotionally. 2 seasons should be enough to realize he’s not a first option and another season with him as the best player will be punting a season.

Pascal kept them in early but lowry/bembry created the separation.

I could tell that Lebron was ticked at how far his team has slipped. They were a dominant big team on defense before his injury. They played okay for a while and then they added Drummond and he does nothing. He will get the occasional steal or dunk, but he is not a starter on a good team. They abandoned Gasol which was a weird call.

Lowry relished sticking it to them, same with Siakam. They are back to being giant slayers, although to be fair, the Lakers have been struggling recently and Lebron is not himself.

Maybe it was the fact we were wearing Lakers' purple like the Kings did the previous game.

I don't think we've lost a game to the Lakers since they Lebron joined them.

Why is that? Because we beat the gsw warriors franchise who hires racist security, let's owners push players, and rushes players back from injury to re-injure them?
