    Hey raptors fans, Celtics guy here. What is the general consensus on what Barnes needs to work on the most

  2. We asked for Scottie Barnes, we got Slim Shady.

  3. Crazy thing is other 29 teams will love to have him on their team but our leaders will shit on him.

    Fvv is the captain of brick city but toronto media would never write negative about him.

  4. needs to work on his footwork, and moves off the dribble. the next step for him is to attack matchups under control, getting to his spots and learning advanced moves to create space. whether it’s a step back, side step, snatch back into his shot. he needs to be able to create that space consistently, with better shooting to be a true threat offensively.

    Straight up. Get off of video games and work

    Scottie made some steps this season, even if his overall numbers didn’t improve, but he has the tools to do so much more.

    He has flashed the ability to just takeover and dominate games in crunch time, which makes it frustrating to watch him disappear for quarters at a time when he’s not engaged.

    He’s got the tools to be a star. I just hope he commits to working on those skills. If he could develop half the work ethic that Pascal has he would be a perennial all-star, at the very least.

    I could have sworn he was in every single league playing. Wasn’t he also at Rico Hines camp? Or is that why everyone is upset that he went to every rec league but skipped out on our assistant coaches camp?

    I find it slightly concerning that he needs to be urged into doing that

    They’re probably saying this cause he’s gonna be a primary ball handler next year loll

    That headline makes it seem like he’s lagging behind and they desperately need him to catch up
