If this is the type of effort we get moving forward, we will win a lot of games, especially with the reinforcements coming back on Friday


Appreciate a PG thread title not dripping in bile. Thank you.


Yeah but just wait, Fred is back next game. :D


Just kidding mdenny, if you read this. :)

Winning streak coming, especially if OG and the centers are close behind. Hated seeing Birch with icepack still on his knee tonight on bench.


Yikes I forgot to say Scottie too. Playoffs here we come.

I have a question. If a fan from another team came to this board and made fun of the team after a performance like this under these circumstances...would there be no intervention?

Why is someone allowed to continuously rag on the team.....mock all the fans....mock all our players....mock the organization....mock the board contributers....and on top of that....imply that masai and the raptor organization has put lives at risk because of their covid policies?

If a fan from another team did all this on the raptor board....what would happen?

What's to stop someone from pretending to be a philly supporter.....and doing all this on the philly board?

The sheer amount of games JoJo has missed thus far in his career.


Jokic is a billion times better at basketball than embiid. It's not even close.

Numbers don’t say that and embiid does more with less talent around him.

An easy 36/11 for him tonight.

If we do a partial buyout of Dragic (say 85-90%) does that clear cap space? Or would his original contract still be applied against the cap.

I'm sure anyone who was watching the Sixers 'cast can tell us.


My guess is that it was legit because the raps didnt spend much time protesting. Svi probably used a word like "bitch" or something like that.


THeres about 3 crucial calls a game where our truck fails to show us the replay to see what happened...worst truck in the league by far, bunch of puck heads


3 calls per game plus missing live action with pointless reaction shots after baskets, and from replays that run into live play.

I wish they would hire some just retired producer from TNT or ESPN for a month as a consultant. Come in and teach them how to do basketball. First rule of thumb, never take the camera away from the play for a closeup reaction or for a replay.

What is the point of this? You're just stirring up **** where there is absolutely none aside from one blatant troll post from Pooh_Jeter.

Dragic can give up an amount equal to a vet min signing with another team. Which would clear more than enough to sign DJ Wilson.

Buying out Dragic just seems inevitable at this point.

TB was elite at it, he also meant well but was hilarious at the same time wish I could find some of his old posts. Good guy, May he RIP.

I still hope against hope for a trade. There must be a team out there in these times, that could use a veteran PG.

Like say, oh maybe --- the Raptors.

Ah my friend who works at the table texted me, it was a delay of game call, Raps' second so it was a T.

Not that Devlin and Sportsnet would ever tell us.
Thank you!! Our crews have been terrible at paying attention and providing real insight in the games of late. Just same repetitive drivel and soundbites...

Some weird/late calls throughout the game but very limited insights provided and no opinions from the crew. The only call that chick seemed to have a real opinion on was the call we challenged - and she was firmly against us, even though it really looked clean to me.

Leave Pooh_Jeter alone. Maybe he struggles getting attention in his life so he trolls on here. I'm sure he's a great guy, might just be going through a rough patch, much like our Raptors

Dumpster diving needs to end... by signing the guy who is out of the league :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.
