IQ and Shead's chemistry is one of the most pleasant surprises of the season so far.

Why give that foul when Siakam is stuck with nowhere to go? That was a dumb foul

Shead is so solid all around can do almost anything

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.

Scottie went to bump Dick from switching onto Nembhard, granted it went to Siakam with Dick on him but great awareness. Little things count

Other team is playing harder than us to start the game almost every game.

Playing harder does make 0-5 from 3 vs 6-10.

They hit their shots, we didn't

Haha yeah but I mean, we weren’t generating good shots and we were behind on D and giving them great looks. That changed after the timeout.
