i blame fred
Trouble with Scottie's attitude. Whats your read on it?
Zion a beast, what can u do.
Fake comeback. Pelicans were disengaged. Horrendous game. We need a starting centre. You HAVE to question the schemes at this point. Go all in on the 6’9 thing or give up on it. I would start Banton at the beginning of every quarter and sub early (to establish pace). No credit for the fake comeback. Did I mention we need a starting centre?
I feel like if the Raptors are really serious about winning a championship they need to make a big trade or else it will be same old every season
Time to bench Fred, another 1 for 8 night. He is fighting for lowest FG percentage among starters
Scottie, FVV and some firsts for KD and Seth Curry
Nick's fault for being stupid enough to start 6' 6" Thad against JV and Zion. Why don't we talk about Young when he totally sucks which is fairly regularly.
Well, I'm glad I went grocery shopping instead of watching the game! 🥳
I'll say again they don't play every game the same, but I'm still not going against them.
They definitely need another consistent scorer to pair with Siakam.
Scottie had me fooled last season
Scottie Barnes I feel like still had hurt feelings from coming off the bench. Gtj took the other approach played as good as he could so he can get back to starting rotation
Bro Scottie 🤦♂️🤦♂️
One day we can beat the Cavs the next we get destroyed by half the pelicans
Pascal gets a pass today and he’s just getting back but he missed so many open passes to corner 3’s from the post. Those are the easy ones
Scotties attitude is annoying ngl
Scottie’s perimeter defence rn is worse than a pylon.
Can always depend on player slander after every L… it’s crazy how predictable some fans are lol
I'm so disappointed with Scottie Barnes, he needs to realize that coming off the bench can help him find his game at this time. Gary which was someone who took more heat in the past few weeks has used that move to the bench as a sparkplug to reignite his game so Scottie needs to take GTJ's attitude. We might need to make a trade and get a consistent shooter to play next to Siakam, that's the main problem with our team right now we need a consistent shooter on this team.
Scottie's attitude is a concern this young dude needs to mature, I like how Gary Trent Jr. has played a lot better since coming off the bench scoring 35 points. If he can continue to concentrate he can be that consistent shooter that we need. I think we'll play a lot better against the Nets on Friday.
Bring back Norman Powell. He was the only player that can explode to the rim. Raptors currently have no one that can do that and help break down the defense. I notice when Raptors are facing a tough defensive team, they will all settle for jump shots.

Scottie been selling the last few games ngl😡😡 he needs to learn not to force shots and what’s worse is he shoots them with so much time left on the shot clock… somethings been off for him this season
You got to appreciate the good with the bad.. that contrast is what makes life worth living!

Honestly I gotta say I know it was ugly loss but you have to be proud of Zion this guy just got out of injury we'll bounce back im not worried but seeing Zion playing this good exactly the way he was playing in Duke was really nice to see
Vanvleet should only get 20 minutes a night of the bench.
I agree on putting Scottie to the bench. But jus think of a really good starting team in the whole roster today. Honestly I really cannot. Hope they find a way to get it together.
Nurse needs a serious adjustment. By keeping Fred on the floor when he is so bad makes no sense. Hoping he comes around puts pressure on the whole team.
FVV is so inconsistent… actually the whole team r inconsistent…. sigh
Scottie being a bitch, and Raptors ate 25th in the league for assists per game m, we have to stop with the iso ball teams will keep flocking Pascal on defence
I fear they are risking Scottie's long term health…and should shut him down. He is not close to his last year form and no longer looks Uber athletic.
If only we had a guy like Donovan Mitchell or KD…
Sixers game that Fred had only 1 point was uglier than this . What is going on with Scottie ? He is not into game .
Are you not worried because the expectation is not high?
Gary took 20 shots at garbage time.
Bad game against a team didn't even have CJ McCollum and B Ingram. Hopefully they will bounce back next game like they did against Atlanta after lost vs 76s
This year, I honestly think we should try to draft do player development. It is probably the best decision this franchise would do. Better than drafting Kawhi Leonard to get the chance to draft Wemby. This is probably the biggest lottery in nba history in this decade. If we draft that guy we can easy do a four peat with an intact roster. Losing is not that bad because it teaches our young core to play well like an investment. When you go to the books, think each loss as a business investment that will earn a payback.
I think that it was more that their shooting was off most of the night, than their defense, which was also off
Zion is like the hulk, get in the way or you'll be bumped away to the sidelines, At your peril Nobody can move him! No body can stop him even O.G.
