HIt to the head....doesn't look that bad but still, rest him for 2 weeks.
 
Simons doesn't box out the shooter. his man. instead gets blocked out by the shooter and gives up a long rebound.
 
The ball movement by the Raptors is fun to watch.
 
Why you complaining about those two foul calls Mario?
Easy calls.

Lowry dribbles into a three.
Lowry draws a foul on Mario.

Your signature has my response.

Oh lets not forget the possession that Lowry came off a double screen and bricked the three.
SO MUCH GREATBALL MOVEMENT OMG.
 
These Raptors are missing 6 of their top 8 Players from last years Finals team.
Lost their best player from last year.
Without their best player from this year.
....up by 12 early in the 2nd.

Rarely is the bigger picture illogical. But thanks for commenting. :cheers:
 
You’re 15-22 and your leader with Zero points LMAO
 
melo and hassan are the only blazers with some fuck you attitude.
 
Can't rebound, Lowry has been the best player on the floor and they've hit a few more of their open threes.

Decently entertaining 24 minutes of basketball all in all though.

Especially early. Both teams moved the ball well, got up and down and the lack of fouls gave the game a nice flow.
 
This is not about the crap players. We getting beaten by totally depleted teams, even the worst team wizards with G league players had us on the rope until last 4 min of 4th quater, we struggle mightily against total garbage teams, forget about trades, this is terry stotts WORST Coach by a mile in NBA, how is it possible that G league players 2nd and 3rd units are as good as our starters. There is zero ball movement, Lillard ISO Melo ISO CJ ISO , Simmons ISO, nobody plays defense, this worst team i have seen. Stots needs to be fired ASAP
 
Raptors ball movement is completely destroying the Blazers defensive scheme.
Their 10 assists is the difference in this game.
Portland has 9, but 10 is much better. I mean you can't get a triple double with only 9. 10 is the superior number.

Portland behind and losing games this season has nothing to do with their rebounding.
Clearly the 13 offensive rebounds Toronto had in the first half didn't change the game at all.
Nope it's their assists & their superior ball movement.


:deadhorse:
 
At times I feel for Whiteside on defense, but he does spend a lot of time flat-footed watching the ball.

This is exactly why it grinds my gear to hear media spin this as injury only... other teams have lost better players and continue to win.
 
This whole team just goes through the motions like they’ve given up. There are possessions where you see the potential.

that one possession near the end of the quarter where Melo got the foul called on him....the whole team is scrambling and engaged. Even though it ended in a foul you see how the effort makes it hard on the other team. But for 99% of this game and every other game, they just play like robots. There’s no energy, no hustle. It’s like they’ve assigned themselves to losing.
 
Portland may be down 10, but they're only down 1 on the assist category, which is more important!
