very promising
Scottie and Gradey our only lottery talents. They traded away our 1st pick next year (top 6 protected) for Poetl. They should have traded Siakam for picks. Upper management must go for terrible decision making.
Raptors team are gutless. They should be playing with passion and anger after last night.
Gradey is our future cornerstone player …not scottie …hopefully he continues to get at least 25 mins a game
Listen to his answers vs scottie this kid is composed and professional…unlike scottie who acts like its a chore to even answer questions
After last night's officiating disaster, it's good to come out of a loss with some positives. I love seeing our two lottery players Scottie and Gradey play very well tonight and so far Scottie is off to a great start this season. One thing that I did like about to night with him and Gary going back to preseason is how well they stretch the floor together. Darko is going to have Gradey and Gary on the court together a lot more often.
Dick was wet from the 3 point line tonight
Trade everybody not named Scottie,Gradey,Koloko. I beg you masai
At least we got SB, OG and Gradey
He was incredible
It’s time to trade pascal and move forward with a younger core of Scottie / Og / gradey
Why did they get Poetl? They had so many big man. Traded your first round pick for him 😂
If jalen macdaniel didn't struggle shooting and OG injured then Dick may not get many mins. Glad he's able to take advantage and had a good game. The only thing he still need to work on is his defence as he fouled player easily but he did play better than I expected. Good job for him.
Gradey is too nice. Bump back Rook
Sadly I knew the fans wouldnt stop the witch hunt after fvv. To you guys him leaving solves all our problems. So why are we instantly jumping the gun on pascal and poetle now?
Hopefully Gradey can develop into something like Klay who would be the perfect running partner for Scottie, someone who shoots and plays off ball the whole game.
He's not just a shooter. He already sees the game better than many established guys. Not even a huge liability on defense either for a 19 year old who is pegged as a shooter. Makes good passes, doesn't force… Just continue to work and fill out 10 pounds of muscle over the each of the next two seasons, he'll become a force.
Such a great shooting form though. Catch and release, even receiving higher up, no need to bring it down and up to get the shot. He can get a pass as high chest and just let it go clean without resetting, with no hesitation. Quick release. Quick thinker.
Reminder that he's 19. I'll calm down on the hype, but he's on the right path.
