first and interesting
I'm still reeling from the Jays implosion from last night.
There is NOTHING Ted Lasso about Nick Nurse. Ted Lasso is all about helping his team and his players, all of them. Not just his favorites. Nurse ruined the young guys on our team and promoted selfish play. Ted Lasso would never have done that.
Danny just meant that they both have mustaches.
Raptors tickets are insane. I bought tickets vs the pacers in January. 3 tickets on the floors, but near the back of the floor level. $900 for the 3 tickets. By the time I park/food/drinks it’s $1100 night. Crazy
F*ck the WNBA. We need less wokeness, not more Marxist garbage.
Wnba expention is a joke 😂
Great vid ! It's weird to hear people compare Fred's game to some of the best in NBA. I never thought he was even a reliable starter. Loved him leading the bench mob back in the day. I hope he proves critics wrong in Houston. That team is stacked and will have a lot of pressure to perform.
I can see Darko and Pascal bumping heads based on the this whole ball movement style of basketball. Pascal’s game is all about pounding the rock and getting to his spots. He’s not a player that’s going to catch a ball off a screen and shot after it’s been passed around. His game is to handle the ball above the 3 point line and pound it until he get’s into the key where he’s most comfortable. It’s iso basketball! It’s going to be interesting to see how he plays in this ball movement system.
Nurse was selfish and toxic. Masai should’ve fired him in 2022 season after the playoffs.
The narrative that this team needs Fred is a joke. Fred was the reason why we were so bad. Fred only cared about his contract plain and simple.
Nurse is a horrible coach. We won that championship cause Kawhi basically willed us to it. There was no ball movement, just pass to kawhi and move out the way. This you see him really exposed the last few years with how stagnant our offense got. Even the defense was suspect with constant doubles that led to WIDE open corner 3s time and time again.
MLSE killed the W plans
Msle would bleed money with a wnba team. Way more money in the concerts.
😂😂😂 so Rogers/Bell would make more money in revenue on concerts over the course of 4 months than putting a WNBA team in there for the summer 😂 no profits league
Fred thought he was a wisened veteran like Kyle, but he isnt. That and Nick Nurse thought he was too, and gave him too much leeway. Thats what I saw, anyways.
Fred is selfish and toxic. Glad he's gone. So where are all these Fred's fanboys that loves to defend him like😘his 6utt. Show your headcannon to us so we all can have another big laughs. 😂🤣😂
Houston gm must be on drugs to give bumvleet that contract. But as raptors fan I would like to thank him outbid our boneheaded Masai
The woman's basketball team will be great at first but how long would it last🤔
Ben you conveniently left out the reason Fred left is cuz we’re going in a different direction and the younger generation doesn’t work hard
can we finally cut ties with flynn
Precious will be good, but sadly I don't see raptors making the play In. This will be more of a learning season.
