TORONTO RAPTORS VS CLEVELAND CAVALIERS REACTION…NEW LOOK RAPS GET MUCH NEEDED WIN, PASCAL GOES OFF
All right guys what’s going on welcome back to Top Line it’s your boy Chris and uh well well well ladies and gentlemen New Look Raptors New Look raps in the house tonight man um got to talk about it got it got it got it got it got it got it got to talk
About uh these new look Toronto Raptors and um getting a big win tonight um the reason why I’m saying it is a big win because the Raptors wanted to get that stink off of them after being the team that lost to the D the Detroit Pistons that that that was heartbreaking
I’m GNA keep it funking with y’all and I’m gonna be 100% real I’ve watched every rapor game I watched them all I just I I didn’t have the heart to come and and and sit here and and just bash and just bash the raps right like um
Um because I was just lost I I was just lost I’m I’m going say this man watching this team tonight it just felt different and I’m going tell you why not because RJ Barett is the second coming of nothing or or quickly is about to be the next Jordan
No no no it just felt energetic right it didn’t feel stale it felt energetic it felt like some guys that were just were just going to push you know they were G to fight they were going to scrap it just felt like some energy was in there um tonight you had U
Pascal SE yakum gave you 36 of them things now very interesting interesting take everyone is saying Pascal is out the door everyone including myself I said I think Pascal be next watching this game tonight I’m looking I’m like I don’t know man like understand the youth movement and what they’re trying to do
But I think this I think the way it’s currently constructed um I think it could work I I think Pascal be your guy right um Scotty Bourn him and Scotty BN played the one two you got RJ Barrett quickly you got um purle who had a phenomenal night
Let’s get peral some props tonight he was he got his free throws but he was interject he was enthusiastic he was a he was um a beneficiary of some some U picking rols and finishing the plays and he started off four or four from the free throw line tonight I think he
Finished four of seven so he hit his first four missed his last three but his energy was up it just felt like I don’t know I don’t know if the team had one of them all team you know how teams be on slump and they have them all team
Meetings and and all of that and and players only meetings that what they call um I don’t know if that was the case um but it just felt and again I know um the six the raps the team the fans everyone is going to miss um OG I
Think OG dropped 17 for the Nets for the Knicks tonight um I know they going to miss him so I’m not saying that it’s a good thing that he’s gone it just felt like it just felt like a breath of fresh air like it it just felt like a new movement
It just felt like you know what I’m saying like like some some some some different in the air like some different energy um and it felt like I just felt like it it was a grind um you know um RJ Barrett being the hometown um kid I think
Tonight now in that fourth quarter I’m going to be honest I felt like he was trying to do a little too much and he has a tendency to do that all the way back to his his uh days in college where many people saying like he kind of
Played a little selfish he got a tendency to try to force the action a lot um and I think it’ll come more and more with him playing within his role um tonight the starters were Pascal SE yakum Scotty Barnes um Perle RJ bar and quickly now I don’t know if they’re
Going to stay with that um probably will um you know it was interesting to see how shrew to take you know being put on come you know coming out the behind quickly and all of that um but in my opinion I thought he took it very
Well didn’t he didn’t seem like he was pouting a pooed um ladies and gentlemen my my my my squad over here my click was super excited um Gabby was like listen the MS is at the store and and to the and she went to a couple spots to grab
Some food and I didn’t have a phone because my daughter took my phone at like I didn’t exist and gave and and she just vide time her mom and Ted her step by step score by score that it most most of the the game till the M got back
Home um so if you don’t think the the they’re locked in they’re excited I think they breath the uh uh uh just just to get a dub I know Gabby Gabby of all people is is just like like y’all don’t understand like she really be sad when
They lose my my baby be sad when the Raptors lose so the fact that they got a big dub tonight she’s happy um you know she was sad when OG love when when she found out she had the sad face in the kitchen but um you know at the end of
The day you know she’s um she’s definitely happy U come here come on come on I know you want to get it in what you want to say the Raptors won tonight I’m happy yeah all right baby they definitely won tonight thank you they definitely won tonight she’s super excited um you know
Perle you know I her her her obsession with purle I do I can’t understand it I can’t explain it but that is her favorite player um and trust me though she got some I’m G be honest with you she got some daddy in her because when
Ber is not playing good oh she let him know she let him know um you know what man it it’s just probably a feel-good moment Hometown kid come back come home do great um Raptors get a win um right now we can’t talk playoffs we can’t talk
That right now right now it’s about finding out who it is and start to stack some wins start to stack some wins build an identity um figure out you know how you moving forward I like the pieces I think now it’s just building it’s just
You got a young core you know what I’m saying um I I wouldn’t be opposed to them keeping Pascal at this point just because you’re going to need some veteran leadership on his team um but it’s all about what pasy wanted um it’s it’s clear man um the Raptors got the
Talent um to compete I ain’t saying they could be the best but they got the talent to compete and and they and they I love the move even though I’m so sad to see OG go um also looking at this team from a holistic P perspective I really believe
That um the last piece to this rebuild or whatever you want to call it for the raps um that March forward it’s figuring out what they’re going to do with Pascal either you going to give him the keys or you going to let him go that that that’s
That’s that’s what the choice is but tonight Pascal told he said I don’t care about RJ Barrett um IQ quickly hey I’m still big dog get um um she threw my thought off I was she completely threw my thought off but um it was he pretty much said yo I’m a big
Dog I’m big dog I welcome but there there’s a big dog here all right you come come jump on but big dog still here and he held him down man let him with 36 points tonight um RJ Barrett gave you a smooth 19 quickly gave you 14 got a
Little early in fou trouble that’s how you know it was just Jitters man it it was just hype ready to go um he gave you 14 perto gave you 14 Barnes gave you 20 uh shud gave you 12 Off the Bench so man I’m excited man I’m see excited to
See regardless how this season’s plan out the future I think the future starting to get a lot brighter um and and step by step man we’re going to see how it goes with that being said guys please like com subscribe to the channel until next time happy New Year happy New Year go after

Flabbergasted is the word! Lets hope we don’t feel that way for a while
Hi Chris! Happy New Year my brother. Good win tonight, hopefully this becomes a turning point in the season. Again Happy New Year to you, the better half and the kids.
OG wasn't a problem they just needed new motivation and Precious had to go.
If Pascal keeps his numbers high he's safe!
Happy New year to the family! Shoutout to my homegirl gabby! Losing to detriot was obviously a low point but I think it was the 2 games against charlotte that had me really side eyeing the team and had me thinking the clock was ticking in terms of a trade happening. This west coast trip they are about to go on is big. I still believe they can turn this season around.
Happy New Year from Toronto! So happy I found you through your honest Cowboy takes. It's so cool all you guys are Raptors fans!! Will be dialed in for your Raptor takes the rest of the year. Really hope Pascal sticks around now because what you saw tonight may be a preview of things to come once they all start to gel. Your daughter's adorable, go Raps.
That was fun to watch!
Great win, I'll miss OG but even more, I'm very excited to see the kind of changes RJ and Quickley bring to the 6ix…. watching the press conference right now and they seriously need to do better with questions 🙄
Gabby is a big Raptors fan just like her mom. We missed OG, too. 😂
I would keep Pascal because he knows what it takes to win a championship and is the only significant player left on our squad who’s been there and done it. . That is why we got Kawhi, lots of great teams but few knows the path, this is invaluable.
Raps offence looked a lot smoother with the new additions.
Looking forward to seeing how those young players grow.
I am a knicks fan but been looking for someone that covers the raptors cause of my boy RJ.
I'll continue to watch each game. Its okay to be raw and honest on RJ's behalf
