Im haopy with Schroeder. That on ball defense is something i missed when FVV could still challenge defensively. More importantly notice how Malachi is playing more like Shroeder now than FVV. Flynns daddy must be happy too! Lol
'Scottie Barnes Award' > any ESPN list. The ranking that matters most is when the votes from fans and coaches are counted and we see #4 made first team ALL-STAR. Stop wasting energy with the 'wah Scotties'. Embrace now!
The Darko Effect has Unleashed the BE4ST!! Scottie ALL-STAR!! We can make it happen!
Siakem gotta get traded
We sure as hell dodged a bullet.. no NOT a bullet.. A BOMB.. BumVleet could still be a Raptor.
@ Ben,
Please respectfully focus on all things Dennis
from the point guard perspective.
🛑 4get FVV – that dude doesn't give a $ about Raptors.
🟢Go Raps 🟢
Dennis has been our second best player. Can't be happier, on offense at least. I don't care what ESPN thinks, they are a joke. If Scottie keeps playing like this, it will be undeniable. He is looking, not like Pippen, but Lebron honestly. I have total confidence in his skills, its just he sometimes has let downs. Even last season, you saw how insane he could be and finally its coming together. He should have been the focus from day one. It was obvious he was great, but Massai let him be third wheel and sometimes fourth and that was a big mistake.
I’d target Capela and picks with Pascal. ATL wants him and Raptors can really use a center that will go and snag 15 boards. Capela would fit in with the Raptors culture. ATL sophomore is ready to take over fulltime duties at center as well.
My favorite raptors line up of game is Otto, Og, Scottie, Pascal, Dennis. #RaptorsDigest#RaptorsFreak#NbaChev#TorontoRaprors# #November#7#2023 Dallas #vs#Toronto#
I was very low on Dennis Schroder but I am so glad we signed him, matter of fact I am a strong believer that he is a better fit then Fred Vanvleet.
Did the raps say they had interest in Vincent?
Dennis signing almost identical to the kyle signing. both were mad underrated and both just needed the reigns. fvv was a crusty curmudgeon and got his, ahead of elevating and involcing his teammates.
on an unrelated note why did we give up so much for poetl and all that cash and picks when you could have just kept eubanks at a fraction of the cost. HUGE L.
If Scotty played in LA.. he’d be the next Lebron.
Time and time again, it proves that the front office knows what they are doing. Remember all the people who wanted Suggs over Barnes. Lol
All the people blaming NN are clowns and all the players giving up on NN are soft as fuck. Maxey is better than Scottie and the Sixers will continue to stomp the raptors.
ESPN disrespects Toronto for clicks.. how else could they lure an out of market fanbase? Nothing works better than anger.
Pascal takes a step back to allow Scottie to grow.. and y’all think he’s soft. Talk about mistaking kindness for weakness, come mistake mine.
He had a second year to develop and we had a shoot first point guard who cudnt shoot…the point guard shit they got it right Dennis seems like the perfect fit…getting little trigger happy late 4th but other wise makes sense.
I don't think at this point you can move Pascal unless you do a trade with lakers. But at this point knowing Raptors might not get a pick next year I'd be happy with a first round pick somewhere
Last season Siakam had the ball. This season you see Scottie taking advantage of his own opportunities. He owes it to his hard work in the summer. His teammates trust him
Scottie is a much better player than Paulo and Mobley. I’m guessing the survey was done before the season.
