We need consistency to be a good team, we need to defend well and get the rebounds, I don’t understand why some of our guys don’t contest the 3, they just stand there and watch especially when they’re under the rim! Our guys need to stop being soft and play hungry! Stop getting cooked by others..that’s not and should not be our identity
Yeah you’re saying everybody’s gonna get opportunities but yet you took them out the game when they were the ones that made us come back from being down! AJ was a huge part in the run we made that gave us the lead then he took him out and brought IQ and the rest of starters and we lost every momentum we had and lost the game smh darko is the worst decision making coach in the nba
Just shows how important RJ is to this team . Can't get over how badly Dick and Walters are shooting the ball. Actually the Raptors could have won this game if their shooting would have come through in the 4th quarter ! Really good to see A.J. Lawson get a chance tonite ! He showed out and should get more of a chance !
Alot of potential in this Raptors team ! The shooting will come back and so will RJ and the Raptors will start to win again. I did 't realize how bad RJ's injury was to keep him out this long. I hope to see him back against NYK's on Tuesday !
Darko took out the players who helped make the comeback, so IQ can return and kill all the momentum. Does this guy not have the balls to bench players who aren't playing well?
Can we please stop having Poeltl switch on every pick and roll screen on the perimeter? There was like a dozen possessions in a row he didn't even try to stay with his man. He was just alone on an island 25 feet away from the basket just giving free pick and roll pass options playing pylon defense. I'd rather have the other team shoot wide open off the dribble in a rush rather than just straight up wide open.
They’re clearly not ready to compete in the East. This team is looking like a play in team at best. A backup 5 is desperately needed, and maybe BI should get more load management than Jakob at this point.
Darko’s gotta stop with this over helping bullshit. We had Scottie helping off of Sam Hauser. Quickley helping off of Peyton Pritchard. BI helping off of Derrick White. These are elite 3 pt shooters. It’s a simple swing and an open shot. Can’t happen. You can afford to help against certain teams but the Celtics launch 3 pointers at will. You don’t help against this team unless it’s a severe miss match. And then I’m just not sure wtf is going on offensively. Seems to be less ball movement and cutting. Getting into actions with 5 seconds left on the shot clock is never gonna win you games. We need an extended period off to really get our shit together in practice. Call me crazy but if we lose against the Knicks it might turn out to be a blessing in disguise for our season. Obviously I want us to win and go on to win the cup but with the way we are playing, we need to regroup. Fast.
The D coverage is terrible tomorrow night vs. The Knicks they have to Defend against the 3 point shooters. This coach needs a better Defensive System vs. The Knicks.
Blame Bobby for these losses, as well!! He’s a damn statue, that makes NO MOVES when we need it. A SIMPLE damn signing of a big, and we can’t even do that!! A damn TEN DAY, ffs!!! Raps FO are frikkin TURTLES!!!!!
Darko needs to step up as well as the players. He needs to play the players that are putting in the effort ie. bench the starters that aren’t producing. That’s why RJ is som8,portent to the team. He is a dog and always brings energy and physicality.

How the hell did we win 9 games in a row? This team is inconsistent. Damn i miss RJ
Can you stop making excuses man it sickens me. You keep playing the victim card when you’re at fault and are part of the problem

Now we really can’t lose that nba cup game on Tuesday other wise we will be down to 9th seed and that would be a huge deflation for the whole team

STOP PLAYING LOW IQ!!!
This team is trash…no depth at all.. Get a damn Center that can play

So why you didn't keep IQ & Yak on the bench and leave the G-Leaguers in the gm? They along w/ SB and couple bench players got Raps in the gm.

RG Barrett is so important for this group
i've had farts that were more pleasant than the current state of this team
Darko looks way too complacent in these last few press conferences. I would be pissed! I AM pissed!

SERIOUSLY outcoached!
