the raptors went for 5 layups, 0 attempt from 3pts while down by 10+ during the last minutes of game 2( while fouling), this is call playing for stats! And Barrett went for a layup with 10 sec left while down double digits is called playing for next contract. Raptors players all have their own agenda and they dont want to be coach by an european!
Let’s hope some home court advantage and IQ playing and BI scoring and good 3 point shooting and Harden and Mitchell having an off night and Shead and Mamu playing well off the bench and CMB starting gets Raps the win in game 3 🤞
The nerd with the red lid saying the "Cavs aren't really that good" clearly has no basketball IQ. Mitchell and Harden alone can beat Toronto. Combine that with 3 point snipers in Strus and Merrill and 2 twin towers in Mobley and Allen saying the Cavs are not good makes y'all look ridiculous.
This is a management flaw , not sure if Bobby or Masai lead the Jacob extension but damn , what a horrible decision. They better get Scottie some elite players to play with next year cause it ain't fair. Now people are saying Mobley is better than Scottie –__–
Lmao this cavs unit has barely played togehter. The role players have been terrible. Saying we arent that good is laughable. And you have just as much money tied up into your core which is way worse than ours. So maybe sybau
Give them a chance! They are still learning how to play as a team. Some are still playing through injury. Considering where they are coming from,I take my hat off to them for even making it to the playoffs. They deserve a lot more credit than what they are receiving. GO RAPTORS GO!!
Thanks, guys, provocative podcast! I love the Raptors, but there have been hard moments watching this year's team. I agree, Cleveland is ok, Raptors are making them look really good. I hate to say it, but they are reminding me a little of the Leafs. Can look like a Stanley Cup finalist one night, and lifeless the next. Shout out to the TSN panel with Sam, Leo and Kate – so great!
Obviously game 3 is a must win, Darko showed some promise being able to make the correct adjustments in game even though he also showed some wrinkles (I.e putting BI back in the 4th) but he is clearly learning.
If IQ comes back he should Probly come off the bench with Jak. They need one another to succeed and since IQ is a terrible PG they pair him with shead to lighten the load and force him into being a shooter/spacer which is what the team needs and you limit the amount of time Jak can be fried by their stars.
They should run out a starting line up: SB, jakobe or AJ, RJ, BI and CMB. It gives you spacing and much needed versatility and defence. Your bench can be IQ, shead, mamu, Jakob and consider sprinkling in one of battle Aj or dick for a possession or 2 to add some shooting/cutting. But Barnes will need to take the next step to carry these guys.
Raps showed some fight and some promise of hope in game 2 and need to build on it for game 3 to have any chance.
We need shooting they need to play more Jakobe, mamu, battle and AJ for shooting and CMB as center and ease his minutes with TJD who has proven he can grab rebounds

Now what would yall know about who is and isn’t a contender? 😂😂😂
Ingram is a non chalant player😂
The effort was there but man that was some sloppy basketball
Cavs in 5
great episode, you guys are telling it like it is with Ingram and Poeltl
Cavs can’t play any better, raptors can’t play any worse and we might be getting IQ back. Raptors go take Game 3 and 4.
It's telling that in Game 2 we won the rebound battle and points in the paint. We lost it over turnovers.

Raps have no X factor. Someone like a Jalen Green, Desmond Bane or CJ McCollum is needed for this squad
Stick a fork in them, they are done. Without CONSISTENT reliable 3 pt shooting, they are doomed. This has been the achilles heel for a few years.
Sound like a scorned girlfriend.” you’re not even that good.”😂😂😂😂let em know!!!!
No, the Raptors are ready to go home. We want to see changes this Summer: Let Darko go and trade Barrett, Dick, Mogbo, IQ, and JP.
Trade bi n jakob for a center
The Raptors give up from the first game..We not going to get back a 2019 team again..These guys need to go and play netball 😢😮

Who wouldn't want Siakam & Davion Mitchell back for BI + Shead? Webster is the problem.
That's you assuming Cleveland isn't a great team. They are.
This off-season the raptors need to really think about who to give up (young core) in order to compete with these playoff teams.
Mario hat is sooooo salty someone check on him
