Darko should take considerable responsibility for this loss. The rotation at the start of the fourth quarter was poorly set up.
Yo either karem was trolling heavy or this fanbase has lost their damn minds 🤣
Thank you for the crash out Will. Thank you.
I mean we had no center this game at all
Will spitting facts. Love it.
Bam Adebayo is the funniest thing about this season. Raptors are doomed bro. They are going to lose every game in every fourth quarter in the playoffs.
IQ ain't it.
40 min pod, I knew the crashout was gonna be legendary 😂😂
Love Scottie. But let’s all be honest, we’re never winning with Scottie at the helm. ceiling is frinch playoff team. Gonna be an interesting 4 more years lol
holy shit, some of the people in the chat have got to be the dumbest fans ever lol. telling will to call out players when interviewing them? LOL
Excellent commentary Will. The Raptors are really a 6th seed level team that played over their head earlier in the season. You're absolutely right that the Raptors could very well lose ground to the teams stepping up their games. I thought earlier in the season that they would battle for the 6th seed but I can also see them going from 5th seed to the Play-In. One thing is for sure, they do not want to meet the Hornets in the Play-In. Cheers!
GET Chris Paul in that lockerroom👀
Fact: Raptors were 1-seed after their first game this season.
Trade everyone after the season except CMB .Sccotie not the guy ,BI weak and soft
Raps are not a good team. Hard to watch so many bricks
Well on the coach and FO you are saying what I have been saying since October and people were pissed at me because I’m about continuous improvement and building a balanced roster.
It is unfortunate JP sick. But CMB, TJD so you only have 0.5 C left and no SB is not a C he is a Forward that can play some C in emergency like OG did.
Finally some honesty
BI should play like a $40m paid player, creating chances for your teammates or making shots
It is Darko and coaching to call players out not Will.
Darko has not learned how to challenge in three years!
No more "retooling", it's time to rebuild. I would rather watch a group of young players with potential than whatever this is
watching the raptors recently is not even fun anymore
This team is extremelyyyyyy mid. Ingram doesnt beat anybody, all his shots are tough. Rj cant shoot , will scottie score on any given game? Nobody knows, noteven scottie. Lol the team is just not it man
I said this many times but no one listens. Do you think in just making this up. I deserve a shout out.
U said BI was not a good fit for this team. RJ is a better Player and he should not take a back seat to anyone on this team.
Darko is not a good coach @ all.
I have a feeling mist of this is on purpose to slow down the process to secure a better draft pick. This center thing is diabolical I believe either Darko or Bobby has to go or both. Differing to BI is asinine. This Shead vibe makes me wonder what give, is it winning or fawning.
Enclosing I believe this organization is too media centric they are not driven by self awareness.
Imaging having IQ mentioned as a better play more important to the team than RJ. Why for the last 3 yr all the RJ bashing yet management never address it properly. It's alway RJ to take high road.
Imagine if SB or BI go through rumors for next 2 years would it effect them or would Bobby address it. Yes.
More closing why do u think Mamu get all the opportunities when no other team out there gives a shit about him is it because Darko is BIAS only has eyes for euro bigs
They are not playing well at all. Boring
Everyone in this team is indispensable except for Scottie, Jakobe, and CMB. The rest you can live without. Raps need to build around that future.
The best outcome for this season is to fall into the play-in and lose. We can be in the lottery. Small chance to win but Dallas won last year with a 2% percent chance. Even if we don't win, at least we'll still have a lottery pick. Having a lottery pick is much better than making the playoffs and getting smoked in the first round. And getting smoked is a certainty.
Typical Toronto fanbase that gets butthurt when a member of the media calls out the team. It's okay to crash out. This team is not good
