Grange shamelessly channels RaptorsLife for a pointless hot take (re: OG) 

Post#1 » by lolwut » Thu Mar 1, 2018 10:01 pm

https://www.sportsnet.ca/basketball/nba/can-raptors-seriously-contend-struggling-rookie-anunoby-starting/

Started with this:
For the 47th time this season OG Anunoby took his place around the Raptors logo at centre court at the Air Canada Centre as the club’s starting small forward.

The question is for how much longer?

Ended with this:
Anunoby has shown that he’s going to get every chance to be the small forward of the future for the Raptors.

But can the future get here fast enough?

I don't know who the guy on the far left is, but that's what makes him a true Raptor killer.

All OG has to do is play defense and make open 3s and a layup here and there.

This is a pointless article, I guess just to drum up hits. It isn't rocket science, we all know what happens here 20 games left. We keep winning, he keeps starting, and in the playoffs you adjust and bench him if he struggles.

I was at a game last season; me and my girl were walking through the concourse and Grange is coming the opposite direction.

I yell "THREE POINT GRANGE!" and he just looks at me like I was taking a dump in public. He seemed so uncomfortable with my sexual advances.

powell needs to go back to being the aggressive chip on his shoulder powell from last year... i realized he forced his game too much to start the season and that's part of the problem with him is finding that balance... he often plays at one speed and doesn't have the savvy or craftiness to make decisions on the fly... hes made some bad out on control drives but i've seen fvv do the same on occasion... i guess the difference is fvv is consistently more productive and efficient where as norm doesn't really have one elite skill to rely on maybe other than his defense... that being said, with og slowing down a bit and the injury bug hitting him, i really really believe that we need to get norm going again... get him some open 3s, allow him to make mistakes, basically play him in the same role og has been playing... it's not like og has been closing games either really, so i don't see the harm in letting norm play around 15-20 mins depending on his performance...

honestly, i feel like with where OG is at right now vs what norm brings to the table when he's on, norm has much more potential to be a difference maker for us in the playoffs... he's really fast, so we should use him in transition similar to pascal... and his defense and lateral quicks and intensity fit well with the rest of the team overall... tbh, i found that og's defense was getting a bit overrated... he's actually not that quick laterally, he just hustles and uses his size to try to contest guys... but in terms of overall 1 on 1 defensive ability, i see norm as the better option. so yeah, i think norm will be more valuable for us once the playoffs hit and i really hope we give him a shot to get his confidence back. he deserves it... the guy saved casey's job both in the indiana series and in the bucks series... i don't see og having that type of impact right now...

I disagree. Although roundabout and incoherent, his grammar was on point. I think Grange installed grammarly
