  1. this is a reply to someone who said the Raptors are tanking (on the other upload)
    ​ @Neil D'Cruz we've been competitive with teams on their home court over and over and over, into the 4th quarter where we have the game close (within 2 points) in the 4th over and over

    I see our guys playing hard on defense, our starters logging a lot of minutes

    if their goal was to tank, why play hard on defense, fighting hard for rebounds

    why would Nurse give the starters so many minutes, if the goal was just to tank. Why play a short rotation

    and something to note:

    to win a championship a team doesn't need to be the #1 seed. The Houston Rockets were 6th seed once and won a championship. The New York Knicks were an 8th seed in 98-99 and they made it to the Finals (where they faced Tim Duncan and David Robinson, and they didn't have Patrick Ewing) They even swept the Atlanta Hawks in the 2nd round

    and as I said on the other vid:

    si mon francais est mal, je suis desole

    Let's go Raps
    Allons y! Raptors!

    j'espere une victoire pour les Raptors ce soir!

  2. “Point the finger at everybody else”. Sounds like he’s blaming the team for the record which affected his selection

  3. I feel really bad for siakam the NBA did him dirty fr dude is better then most of the east all-star reverses expect embiid and brown

  4. Keep going P! All that accolades don't matter as long as you know you are doing your job and focussing on the team winning.

  5. Probably best siakam didn't make the asg. I feel like he deserves to make it but it feels like he's been playing to make it instead of playing to win games.

  6. Siakim had a hot start …the first 2 months he was excellent but since then he has been mediocre at best and in the past 10 games he has been below average…. he didn't deserve it maybe over demar just maybe but Bulls are in a play in spot ….team record matters folks 🤷‍♂️

  7. Be careful with who you call your friends. Your coach N. Nurse is a great friend and mentor, but the team has to realize that your coach has to stay and say positivity to keep you grinding and finding yourselves. If I was your coach, I'd give you tough love with an explanation a few hours later or when the time is necessary. You Raptors are great humans and Champions in your own respected way. Each of you is individuals with great abilities. You're all different but awesome and that's what makes a winning. Diversity. Let's Go Raptors, Let's Go!!! The Toronto Family is waiting for your return and if your happy then we'll accept, if not we need to practice as if our lives depend on it.

  8. It's all good, Pascal. We don't chase All Stars, we chase Larry O'B! Tighten up and fly right!!!

  9. Spicy P is an All Star to me. Buck all the noise. Raptors for life. 🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖🦖

  10. Pascal handled that pretty well. However, it is clear to me that he is PISSED. I would not be surprised if he seeks to punish Houston in the paint tonight.

  11. Pascal looks mad lol this just cost him the super max. Maybe this will teach him a lesson that no one cares about your ball hogging stat chasing numbers when u costing your team wins because you and your boyfriend Freddy won't pass the ball foh 😅😅
