Why are these dumb commentators/reporters constantly defending Dragic?
He's never had any bit of class. His on-court antics say it all.

If Scottie got the calls he should have he’d be 2/4 with about 15 points

Precious is pretty sick handling the ball like rhat as a Center. Good rebounding instincts too

Sometimes, you just need to make the obvious pick. Suggs was the guy.

so you think. we wont know for sure years down the line. Many superstars were not obvious: Curry, Kawhi, Jokic, etc... Simmons was an obvious pick over Ingram (and thought of as better for at least a couple years)

^ this. Thank you for being one of the more reasonable person on the forum. Barnes has always been a bit of a gamble and Raptors believe that they can develop him into a star. I can understand if people are upset after year 2 and he’s still about the same, but it’s still so damn early (literally 2 summer league games). Let’s just all chill out!

According to this thread Barnes was going to go in the second round if it wasn’t for us picking him

He’s not athletic like that, the combine tricked our front office.

Stationary work out drills is not the same as in game athleticism.

Barnes has terrible balance, crap lateral movement and extremely weak fast twitch muscles.


Guessing you haven't watched Scottie before he got drafted huh

I would agree that Barnes isn't very explosive, unfortunately. He doesn't get off the ground very quickly or easily, so he needs to learn how to load up better on his last step.

Didnt he just play the whole 3rd qtr


yeah so don't jump all over unnecessarily and waste energy if you play the whole quarter. He can be be smarter about it.

Are you trying to preach taking it easy on defense to our new rookie?

Stop it that doesn't fit the culture at all
