We have Boucher and Yuta - key rotational players according to many on this board.


Are we looking on the same forum? Boucher has probably been the most hated Raptor all year aside from our best player FVV.


it's just sarcastic misinformation. It's his new shtick. I guess wishing injuries on players was a bad look. Had to mix it up

I am the disciple of GreatWhiteStiff

go through all my posts and find one instance where I wished injuries on our players?

Good! I hope he gains some confidence to be more aggressive attacking the basket. I think he's been too passive in the half court set, if somehow he can attack more regularly he'll be a great rotation player.

He's still very young so he still has a lot to grow, but he could be very solid.

I don’t think there’s a better coach to have in this situation than Nick Nurse. His years overseas & in the G League prepared him for moments like this

The GLeague quality players are likely still better than the quality players he had coaching overseas.

FVV defense + 3pt shoot
fused with
Banton's quickness and passing

Is the Cavaliers Twin Towers Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley still out for protocols?

I know Sexton is out for the season.

At least they still have Darius Garland and Ricky Rubio available (I think).

Cedi Osman also on the protocol list now.

Love is putting up Love numbers in limited minutes. I'm not sure if he's in or not.

This would be a key win and a knife in the hearts (or backs) of the tWo if we win without all our key starters/players. Is the LCBO open today? I imagine the tWo will need alcohol to numb the pain of a loss tonight!

Knicks brought back Kemba after kicking him out of the rotation. There is 0 reason why Dragic isn't being brought back. The whole thing from acquiring him to now has been a 19.5M blunder.

should have just let lowry walk.

the trade was awful for the raps.

the G Leaguers will probably look better than the raptors bench.

Svi should be in the G League.

The Rico Hines runs may be more appropriate for that content.

Let’s see what my boy Delano can do. He hasn’t been the same in a while. Give him the keys and let’s go
2019 Eastern Conference All Stars

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.
