Game Thread 2022-23 Game #39 - BLAZERS @ RAPTORS - JANUARY 8, 2023 - 12:30 PM (PDT) ROOT

[TBpup]

About what?

...about having vacation plans for late May or June?

 

[Hoopguru]

Sharpe will have to develop at least an average handle. He very limited in what he can do in the flow of a game other than shoot threes and periodic back door alley O's.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Ant just threw the ball at Drews feet again.

 

[speeds]

More ball movement, more turnovers, less attempts.

More FGA's is Toronto's offensive strategy to overcome not having shooters. We're 16-23 so it mostly doesn't pan out.

 

[TBpup]

The all-too-often pass at a big man's feet.

 

[B-Roy]

I don’t trust the bench to tie their own shoes

 

[speeds]

Eubanks isn't great but I dunno why Toronto made no effort to keep him.

 

[illmatic99]

tired of watching eubanks play this many minutes.

he leads the league in useless jumps in the air.

 

[Hoopguru]

Im thinking we should have drafted Sochan. He's going to be one of the next star defenders.

 

[blazerfan11]

Walker should be a starter. Blazers need someone like him.

 

[TBpup]

NICE recovery by Walker to block that shot at the rim. Tremendous instincts for a rookie.

 

[James lamphear]

Shooting 26 percent from the 3 is not going win very many game with this team.

 

[Mr. Robot]

Eubanks isn't great but I dunno why Toronto made no effort to keep him.

he never played for the raps

 

[MickZagger]

What a shit show

 

[julius]

I'm convinced this shit show is done on purpose.

 

[MickZagger]

he never played for the raps

They had his rights for a minute and waived him

 

[B-Roy]

3 people shading Ant whenever he has the ball. Hard to play when the team only needs to guard one player

 

[Tince]

I think more FGA is every teams strategy.

 

[speeds]

he never played for the raps

I know. We didn't even look at him.

On 10 February 2022, Eubanks, Thaddeus Young, and a 2022 second-round selection were traded to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for Goran Dragić and a 2022 first-round draft selection.[10] He was subsequently waived.

 

[illmatic99]

he never played for the raps

they acquired him in a trade from SA and waived him

 

[riverman]

5 minutes without a bucket

 

[speeds]

I think more FGA is every teams strategy.

Fair, but it's all we've got.

first time i hear it

3 people shading Ant whenever he has the ball. Hard to play when the team only needs to guard one player

...so half the Blazer team was wide open. They have to do a better job of taking advantage. Not Ant overdribbling MeJ style.....and then on the last possession, getting an offensive foul.

 

[FlashWad]

It’s so bad how I feel about this team vs the start of the season. I think I would rather be in Orlando or Okcs position than us…

 

[riverman]

Our bench total....3 pts

 

[Fairly-Hard]

So Chauncey just stopped the offense and told Watford to hold for the screen and then drive for all of us to see?
Boggles the mind?

 

[Mr. Robot]

look at the bright side guys

 

[speeds]

Refs have prevented any flow to this game.

 

[TBpup]

Sharpe gets the "You jumped too high" technical.
