    >If the roster doesn’t match that, well, he is not the one who paired himself with the current roster.

    >What they do not have is the requisite half-court speed and shooting to efficiently take advantage of all that passing. Rajaković is harping on important habits to learn for players who are going to be Raptors for the long term, but this group can benefit only so much.

    >With Poeltl’s decent rim protection, OG Anunoby’s excellent on-ball defence and Scottie Barnes’ playmaking, the Raptors should have a good defence when playing relatively conservatively.

    >Maybe Rajaković can ask his team to ratchet up the aggressiveness a bit, if only to goose the number of transition opportunities it gets. Against the 76ers, the only time the Raptors were able to hang was when they were forcing turnovers.

    >The Raptors have lost Flynn’s 450 minutes by 70 points this year, and that is after a plus-nine on Friday.

    The team’s in a rebuild. They refuse to just tank. Though they should. Darko is a Tank Commander in disguise.

    No serious basketball team should have so few shooters

    Can’t believe the whole Reddit last year including me blamed NN for overplaying the starting 5 and boring iso play when we are not winning. And believe the FO fart that FVV and Siakam are to be blamed for it.

    I’m starting to think that Darko actually is actively tanking without wanting to say so out loud
