Raptors vs Celtics Game 40 (4 straight losses…) (January 15th, 2024)

Raptors vs Celtics Game 40 (4 straight losses…) (January 15th, 2024)

One team is a favorite to win the Larry OB this year the other one looking towards the draft lottery I don’t know the Raptors lose yet again fourth consecutive game first game back after the west coast swing 10596 to the Boston Celtics they do not have Jaylen

Brown in the lineup no Gary Trent and obviously still no yako purle for the Raptors there’s one storyline in this game the inability to shoot the three that’s it and before I go any further check out the Tik Tok page down below ladies and gentlemen we are over we’re nearing that

600 follower Mark if we can get to a th I can go live during games even with this painful game uh we can go live and talk during the game and react to moments during the game together link is down below for that but the and Shout Out Blake Murphy

Cuz I had to read his tweet today s minutes ago actually the Raptors ended the game 4 for 32 on threes yeah you heard me right 4 for 32 this is only the 17th time in NBA history a team has shot that poor poorly on 32 plus 3es

Yikes only one team that was in the Harden era was the Harden era Rockets has ever won a game like that ever and also the tops uh 6 for 42 against the Heats Zone from 1920 to 22 to 19 to 2 holy smokes from 2019 and 20 season as

The worst three-point shooting night in Raptor history they topped that with two more misses or two less makes it’s pretty bad and somehow they only lost this game by nine obviously no Jaylen Brown for the Celtics and Jason Tatum didn’t have a shooting form 19 but man oh man goty

This is why they’re a championship caliber team right when you see guys like Derek white and Drew holiday just spotting up for three catch and shoot threes money they each had 22 in the game they were electric how much how many threes did they knocked down today they locked down nine those two

Guys combined for over double of the Raptors makes today God actually screw that Derek White made five more than the entire Raptor team it’s pretty bad it’s pretty damn bad let’s break this game down first quarter you lose at 2925 second quarter 3230 and you’re only down six at halftime you

Were down like 11 late in the second quarter and they crawled back and made it a six-point game and then to start the third quarter Raptors came out flying early foul trouble from jontay Porter in comes Thad young and instantly makes a pre his presence known against Chris Taps porzingis causing turnover

After turnover he ended the game with uh where are we here Thad young 16 minutes he had seven dimes now the 04 shooting is quite painful but he was a plus six on the floor and 16 minutes in a nine-point loss and they Raptor you you the Raptors

Were leading by seven at one point that third quarter and then the Celtics call a timeout and then like all right fellas enough playing with your food uh let’s lock this thing down and the rest of the third quarter Raptors can’t make a shot to save their life the Celtics lock down

Defensively Jason Tatum goes to work and just like that you know your uh seven-point lead which would have given you a pretty nice advantage in the third quarter evaporates you actually lose the quarter by 323 32 and just like that you’re down by nine heading into the fourth quarter

I should have seen that with the fourth quarter being tied 2121 but yeah they play even in the fourth quarter at one point it’s a 14-point deficit and the Raptors crawl back make it a six quickly has a chance kind of a fading three he misses it and that was pretty much game

Because I think Derek white came down hit a three after that which iced it at that point you lose 10596 it’s very simple like this game it was funny the um the Utah Jazz game let’s go back to that just a few days ago right on Friday night Raptors were

In Utah against the Jazz and the Raptors hit 17 threes today four ah painful stuff let’s quickly go through the team Stat or the the player stats because who wants to look at the team numbers Pascal sakam 175 and four five of 15 shooting 0 of six from three

Yeah that’s ugly uh he was a minus five on the floor RJ Barrett was a menace tonight the paint he was really good 11 of uh 24 points nine rebounds four assists 11 of 19 shooting two of three from the line but 04 from three and that’s the problem minus four there

Jonay Porter struggled mightily in the match up against Chris STS porzingis two points four boards three assists one of five shooting missed both threes he took fouled four times uh looked like a lot of that was in the third quarter um or no in the in the latter half of the

Second and to start the third he was a minus8 Manuel quickly in 36 minutes 21 points six boards three assists eight of 20 shooting three of four from the line two of seven from three is steal the block uh he was a plus two on the floor

Okay you know Scotty B great rebounding game 13 boards 10 points though on five of 12 shooting he missed both threes he took had a couple steals minus one and then your bench Dennis shuder had 13.7 boards you’re thinking that’s fine five of n shooting one of three from three couple

Two of two from the line looks pretty good yeah minus 15 while he was on the floor so quite painful that was more or less in the latter half of the third quarter when everyone was leaking oil and they bring out quickly and they take out RJ Barrett which they were cooking

But okay and then the rest of your bencher Thad young I thought he played pretty well in his minutes there in the third quarter and then they pushed it a little bit and he’s like not very good after that uh Chris bue one of six shooting why risb he’s taking four

Threes is beyond me and jayen McDaniels I I know he had a three today but Five Points two boards two of five shooting was he minus 12 in 12 minutes and went to the free throw line and botched both free throws and then went lifted his

Head to the sky like yeah are you kidding me he’s clearly fighting it but why are we playing him then like I tweeted out you know during the game as he missed the free throws and I’m like what is what does he do is that a great

Defender or else he’d be out there uh his numbers this year I’m not going to look at his like points per game stats because he doesn’t play very much but he’s shooting 18% from three and 34% from the field the true shooting of four 43% it’s not very good at all like what

Are we doing putting him out there albeit who else do you got you going to put Garrett Temple out there uto Porter’s hurt yak’s hurt Gary was out with a flu like symptoms and an illness uh Grady dick I guess right thrum strain so he’s done so I guess that’s all he

Had in Jay McDaniels but Garett Temple may I don’t know I I oh at this point Raptors were cooked tonight they couldn’t make a three to save their life I like the energy and the effort even though you weren’t making shots but in the end you’ve now lost four straight

You’re 10 games under 500 it’s not fun 15 and 25 no matter I’m not going to do moral victories anymore it was it was okay in La when you were playing these tough teams and you were real real close but now you’ve lost four straight it’s just a painful watch all

Right next game of the Toronto Raptors they welcome in Kyle Lowry in the Miami Heat to town on Wednesday night uh so 7:30 tip off there as I don’t know the Raptors like to win a win a ball game and uh get under that 10 games under 500
