They're just not that good lol, it's as simple as that. We're the embodiment of a barely .500 team.



How is something wrong in raptor land when they just came back from a difficult road trip with a more than respectable record against the really good teams. It's the first game back of a road trip. It's one really really bad game.

TRik is just team negative all the time.

I dunno about that. But, either way I don't like the tight 7 man rotation because you pretty much isolate half the team. The bench guys are left out totally. It's not necessary to grind our starters that much. I thought we were developing guys too. Yuta only played the other night because it was Japanese Heritage night. We are laying an egg tonight and the starters are still playing heavy minutes. No accountability for them, it's not right.

In the last 5 games, not including this one, Fred is shooting 32% from the field and 34% from 3. It's been a rough stretch of games in so far as shooting is concerned. He was so hot for a stretch before that, could not miss.

It's been a tough game, but you gotta love the fight! All the core guys killing themselves out there for the fans who paid their hard earned money to see this. Most other stars would be on the bench wrapped in towels.

Siakam is the only one playing well tonight. Barnes has been okay as well.

Yeah games happen where teams can’t miss and shoot 58% from 3. If just happened to happen on the same night we can’t hit anything either.

Overall I don’t think we’ve played newest as bad as a 30 point deficits suggested
