Quickley looked really open
Good ass game the crowd was electric tonight
Sooo we don’t play Boucher because he’s bad for the tank, I respect it
I’m glad Scottie had great game, now go enjoy the all star game
These are the sort of losses I want to see.
​
If we aren’t good enough to win, that’s fine and expected, but at least play like you want to win.
Despite not being able to buy a bucket late in the 4th Scottie is absolutely a DOG
Nice bounce back game from Scottie. Not even that upset with the loss, effort was good tonight.
Hurts to be so close but that was a very good Scottie game
Tough way to lose but a perfect tank performance. Team played hard, young guys mostly played well, Siakam had a nice return. I’ll take it
You impatient motherfuckers doubting Scottie Franchise, he’s going to get there and he’s going to be great.
Indiana clearly blew up darkos play call at the end there… y’all always tryna blame someone😭
Competitive loss, the best result!
Perfect tank loss. Scottie aggressive in the 4th is refreshing to see.
Feel like that was a perfect loss, they played with a ton of effort and intensity while making a lot of mistakes, pretty much all you can ask for from a young developing team.
That game had everything. Pascal and Scottie with great games, a close finish, even Boucher got minutes. Solid solid game!
Jakob Poeltl is somehow our best and worst free throw shooter 😂😂
Sucks we lost against a Pacers team with no centers, but glad Pascal found his composure in the second half, with clutch buckets and stops to lose the game for the Raptors.
Thank you Commander Barrett for missing them free throws. Our tank squadron appreciates your dedication and service.
I’m getting really excited to see RJ break out even more. Dude still so young.
A lot of effort shown today, can’t complain.
RJ got a good shot at the end just missed it, everyone and their mom probably thought it should have went to barnes, I feel like RJ got tunnel vision there.
#BOUCHER NEEDS TO PLAY
during all star break raps gotta hit the gym for free throws and darko gotta hit the books for plays because wtf was that
It was a great fucking game. Heartbreaker in the end.
RJ almost had it. Damn damn damn.
Hopefully through this game Darko sees Boucher deserves some minutes.
Darko got some questionable play calls ngl
Most enjoyable game of 2024. Scottie looked like an all star, and like he calmed down a little bit. RJ was feasting pressuring the basket. Matter of fact, everyone played well. Clutch L for the tank effort too.
Edit: and how about them BOUCHER minutes?
Darko in the huddle with 10 sec left…
That was a fun game, can’t be mad about that one
Tough missed call at the end there, it’s very hard to tell the difference between a push and a flop and that last play was an example of it
Nice bounce back game from Scottie, so y’all can stop hammering his ass
Siakam was clutch
Nice to see Scottie and RJ bonding, starting to see some chemistry there
How many games have we lost to the refs at this point? Tbh prolly our biggest rivalry this year, they’ve been kicking our butts
Chris with 10 points in 11 minutes…nice!
Boucher!!
honestly people are going “well we lost but look at all the points the guys score” a bad defence missing players in a game that was going to be high paced scoring, they kinda just met the bar. Scottie was good but if he didn’t get to the mid to high 20’s that would have been kinda concerning, so yeah, thats good.
Happy they competed but thats about it
Winnable game that they lost due to typical young team mistakes:
– missed FT
– rushed TO
– defensive breakdowns
You can see the makings of a decent team despite the brian farts. They need somebody who isn’t Barnes to make a shot in the clutch – he’s best drawing and kicking and if he’s going to be forced to score only the other team will just load up on him.
Particularly promising if Dick can develop into a starter to replace Gary. He has better size and you hope he develops into a more consistent shooter than Gary who has missed a loooot of wide open looks.
What the hell is going on with RJ from the free throw line? He’s looking great otherwise, but shooting 50% from the line is not acceptable.
Really liked Scottie’s disposition the whole game. He was aggressive and kept his emotions in check. If he brings this type of focus each game, he’s already a walking triple double threat as is. Despite the fact that he is still raw in many ways and has tons of skill work he needs to polish up.
