Their too small
SHOULD OF TRADED FOR SIAKAM IN THE OFFSEASON I SAID THIS
POWELL IS ASSS TRADE POWELL & MAXI FOR SIAKAM
POWELL SUCKS IS ASS SHOULD GO PLAY FOR A HIGHSCHOOL TEAM
That Toronto team is really really good
The moment he returned they become a loser
NBA TEAMS always under estimate the RAPTORS… PLAY-IN TEAM… easy to beat.. BUT RAPTORS ALWAYS RESILIENT, never folds.
Hope to see kyrie give similar post game pressers
THANK YOU KYRIE FOR THE RESPECT THE RAPTORS SOOOO DESERVE,THANKS FOR THE TRUTH.RESPECT THE RAPTORS❤❤
The Raptor's bodied you in the paint.
Kyrie love your honesty I'm a Raptor, but I'll cheer for you in the west. Hope we meet in the finals.
The difference in the Raptors is not having the slow movement and hero ball of Vanvleet who was more interested in padding his stats. he got his big contract now with Houston and they are sucking. Scottie and Siakim and Shroeder have alternated as leaders of this team and it is paying off. No more greed. The RAptors have also learned to rebound. They were often destroyed last year but no more. They can all rebound at both ends. One thing that has been positive for them is the absence of Precious Achuewa (sic). He has hands of stone and I cringe every time he tries to take a pass or dribble. More than 50% of the time it becomes a turnover. He has been off with a groin pull and his not playing has allowed Otto to get back in the game and he is a big presence and very calming. Boucher has come alive as well. Look for the Raptors to beat the odds in every game.
Luka is the problem, no way you can win chips when he holds the ball 80% of the time😅
Miss Boban
To be real kyrie is coasting he's hitting the Lebron Effect of playing with the team and building the trust through the regular season….. he's so professional in the sense that he takes full accountability of he's game and how it affects the teams game… the if the team is winning games in the season the 'depth' aspect you have a better chance of win playoff series… Nikola Jokic is great however look at the team around him… sheesh…. stacked
Gotta love when the entire league wrote off the Raptors this season, and they come out to embarrass the Bucks and Mavs, and made a 23 point come back in a 3rd game in a matter of a week lol They'll earn the league's respect the hard way, it's alright.
Raptors were simply better. That’s the real answer
Need a backup center badly
MAVS PICK UP KAI SOTT0 7'3" HE DID WELL IN MAVS SUMMER CAMP. KAI SOTTO THE PERFECT PRICE PERFECT HEIGHT AND PERFECT FAN BASE IN THE PHILIPINES.
🧺🏀🧺🍓🥤
LUKA AIN'T GARBAGE.. LUKA PLAYING AT THE NORMAL 6'7"/6'8" POSITION (SF) WOULD ALLOW OTHER BALL HANDLERS TO
1) HANDLE THE BALL FROM FULL COURT AMONGST MULTIPLE BALL HANDLERS TAKING TURNS AT FULL COURT
2) ALLOWS FOR LONG PASSES TO LUKA WHO IS BETTER AT SCORING OVER MOST PLAYERS WHO END UP WITH THE BALL.
THE LONG PASS TO LUKA
(SUPPOSEDLY THE HIGHEST B-BALL I.Q. IN NBA HISTORY/ I THINK WILT CHAMBERLAIN MAY HAVE THE HIGHEST I.Q.
HE IS THE RECORD BOOK SO NO NEED FOR A 🐐)
IS ALSO A THREAT OF AN EASY BUCKET, SO FULL COURT PRESS DEFENSE WILL BE ALLOWING FOR LUKA TO BE OPEN DOWN COURT BEFORE THE BALL IS PASSED IN BOUND TO START THE 24 SEC CLOCK.
TAZE MOORE SHOULD HAVE BEEN SIGNED INSTEAD OF WAVED. NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED WITH HIS INITIAL SUMMER LEAGUE OFFER OF AN EXHIBIT 10 1 YEAR CONTRACT ALONGSIDE SMUCKERS GRAPE JELLY WALKER🍯🐝.
BUT MAVS DID VERRRRRRY WELL. UNDER ESTIMATELY WELL….SIGNED DENNIS THE MENANCE DEXTER DENNIS AND THE GUY WITH THE MOST HOPS ON THE TEAM GREG BROWN 3.
THESE GUYS WILL BE FANTASTIC WHEN LUKA AND KYRIE NOT ON THE FLOOR ESPECIALLY WHEN BOTH ARE INJURED, DEXTER AND GREG WILL NOT BE WEAK LINKS SIMPLY FEELING IN TIME FOR LUKA AND KYRIE.
DEXTER AND GREG WILL BALL OUT. PUT AJ LAWSON HARDY IN WITH DEXTER AND GREG AND WE GOT OURSELVES A RUN N GUN TEAM..
JUST NEED A RELIABLE RIM PROTECTOR SINCE THESE GUYS ARE TOO SHORT TO BE RELIABLE RIM PROTECTORS AGAINST YOUR DEANDRE AYTONS, CLINT CAPPELLA, JARRETT ALLEN, NIC CLAXTON, NOT TO MENTION JOKER, WEMBY, ZACK RANDOLPH LIL BRO ZION WILLIAMSON, GIANIS, EMBID, PROZINGUS, KAI SOTTO 7'3", ANTHONY DAVIS
MY STARTING LINE UP WITH LUKA AT HIS IDEAL POSITION FOR HIS HEIGHT (SF)
(C) JARRETT ALLEN OR LIVELY 2 IF THEY CAN'T BENCH LIVELY 2 TIL HE IS READY AND AQUIRE LIKE MARK AGUIRE JARRETT AIR ALLEN
(PF) GREG BROWN 3
(SF) LUKA DONCIC
(SG) TAZE MOORE (JASON RICHARDSON 4.0) DALLAS ARE DELUSIONAL FOR LETTING TIE ZAY (TAZE🏀🛫✈✈🛩🛬 ) MOORE GO.. HOPEFULLY HE GOES TO THEIR AMATEUR LEAGUE IN PLANO, TEXAS AND COMES BACK MID SEASON IF DALLAS CUTS A FEW PLAYERS LIKE DWIGHT POWELL, MAXIMILLAN KLOBBER KLEBER, 2ND ROUNDERS, MAYBE KILLER CROSSOVER JR (TIMMY HARDAWAY JUNIOR)
(PG) KYRIE IRVING
DALLAS NEED JARRETT ALLEN OR CLINT CAPELLA
IF LIVELY 2 IS HURT THEN THE RIM PROTECTING, BLOCKS, DETERING SHOTS, LOB THREAT IS MINIMIZED AND DALLAS WILL NOT BE THE SAME TEAM WITHOUT A ROTATION OF RIM PROTECTION.
DALLAS SHOULD KNOW BETTER,
THIS HAS BEEN THERE PROBLEM BEFORE POPEYE JONES WAS ON THE TEAM. SHAWN BRADLEY (TALLER THAN WEMBY) 7'6" WAS OK BUT PLAYED VERY WEAK ..LIKE SCOTTIE PIPPEN PLAYING WEAK AGAINST THE BULLY LOOKING LIKE KING HIPPO..NONE OTHER THAN BULLY CHARLES VASELINE IN THE BELLY BUTTON SIR CHARLES.
