@Toronto Raptors

LOL…



LOL…

This was a generational performance we just witnessed tonight it was generational for all the sickos that sat through this game and watched it from start to finish a generational performance for the Raptors players a couple specifically we’re going to bring up in this video Darko rakovich coming

Out here with a master class and executing the tank driving the tank for 2024 that’s right the Toronto Raptors it’s in full force there’s no ifs ends or butts about it the Toronto Raptors put on a master class here tonight against the Detroit Pistons yes the Detroit Pistons team that had a historic

Lo losing record this entire season they have now beat the Toronto Raptors twice over the course of this season and while the Pistons have been playing better as of late this is still uh you know big game for the Toronto Raptors and right now as of recording I don’t even know if

As of published because the Grizzlies were losing to the Charlotte Hornets you know when I was watching this game but right now we are below those Memphis Grizzlies we have caught them folks we have caught this team and we’re bottom six so we have a better odds of keeping

Our draft pick so that is huge that is huge news and Desmond Bane might be coming back so you know we might be clear of the Grizzlies now they might lose to the Hornets and things might get tight as we inch closer and closer to the end of the season but I’m revving

Things up I’m revving things up right now I think Darko rakovich with some of his lineup some of the things he’s been doing he’s been cooking here f folks he’s been cooking and the Toronto Raptors might be able to make their push to catch the Portland Trailblazers maybe

I’m delusional maybe I’m optimistic but who knows maybe the Toronto Raptors can come out here the Blazers get some wins it’s only four games we’ve lost five straight I mean it’s doable given some of the stuff we’ve been witnessing from this Raptor team to close off this year

So let’s dive into the game because I know most people watching this video probably didn’t watch it because why would you why why would you here now at this point the Raptors had a lead I mean we were without Gary we were without RJ Barrett who’s really been the Saving

Grace to to close off this sort of season obviously no Scotty no yaka purle any of these guys really here tonight for the torona Raptors Kelly Len continues to put up some good numbers 19 points you know six rebounds eight assists two steals two blocks get them

On your fantasy team folks it’s a mistake if you don’t have him picked up but did let uh jayen Duran absolutely cook on the other end of the floor and again it wasn’t just Kelly O’s fa but 24 points for Duran 23 rebounds which is

Kind of crazy kind of wild there but uh you know that’s just how it goes that’s just how it goes you know for uh for uh you know you bring in an offensive minded Center he going to be off the bench for your team and all that type of

Stuff and he’s your literally pretty well only big man I mean jonte Porter did give us some good minutes off the bench tonight I thought he did a solid job made a little spark for this team at moments in this game at 12 points two rebounds but we are thin

In that forward spot thin in those front lines and aaji guys he’s not a power forward we have to stop with this and again we have no other choice but he has not been great since uh he’s had some really good early on performances for the Toronto Raptors but has not looked

Good really since you know baji was tough gry dick hit some shots early but as the game went along wasn’t really able to get his game going again really the only uh the only couple nbaers guaranteed nbaers it feels like on this team right now like gry dicket Grady

Dick willby and stuff but Emanuel quickley and Kelly o link the only two half veterans I guess Bruce Brown as well and I was shocked to see this box score and again am I super locked into this game Raptors Pistons well I have it on but am I missing some things here and

That but I see Bruce Brown statline of 8 of 12 from the field 17 points four rebounds five assists two steals one block and the thing I hope about this the thing that keeps me hope you know because the Raptors apparently turned down a first round pick for Bruce Brown

During this year’s trade deadline the thing I hope about these Bruce Brown stat lines is people aren’t going to watch the games but they’re going to see those tat be like okay Bruce Brown is still worth a first because you know the moments Bruce Brown was in this game the

The tank was getting revved up we need Jaylen McDaniels and we need a Bruce Brown on this tank Scotty Barnes gredy dick don’t really need to be there m you jury he did all he could to not have this team tank but holy smokes jayman Daniels and Bruce Brown

Man they are uh they they won’t be on this team long term the jayen McDaniels is prime is Aaron Banes Legacy but to a greater extent to a whole another level I think Aaron Baines caught a lot of crap because he was being asked to be the starting center when he wasn’t

Really a starting center and that team was pretty talented around him it wasn’t Aaron Bane’s fault that he was the tank commander he was this but McDaniels man he has just slid in there and earned that spot he is coming in doing his thing I I’m eating crow right now I

Thought he was a nice pickup this off season should listen to Shawn down on Sixers diges but it was not a not a guy that really he’s impacting things but he was a steal for the Toronto Raptors cuz he allows us to really take our tanking

Levels to the next to the next sort of Stratosphere and you know what I see people complaining about me discussing tank and discussing all these types of things but you know what there’s no there’s no debate there’s no logical reason for you to argue against the fact

That dark yovic is not playing lineups of Bruce Brown and jayen McDaniels the only logical answer for that is to lose the game and you play the Detroit Pistons yes they’ve been playing better yes they have some guys on their team where things are looking nicer you know

They got the two big lineup Stuart and Duren ready to fight some people you know Stuart ready to throw some punches in the locker room they do have Ivy back as well as Kate Cunningham so you know they they have some Talent out there in their front lines I mean wisman had a

Cool highlight the other night you know they got M the Crimson Flynn out there Off the Bench you know no not getting off the bench I’m surprised they didn’t play him in a game like this but forier getting five minutes you know the ghost of Evan forn Quinton Grimes Scotty

Barnes not him you know what can we say what can we say about this game do you guys want analysis there’s no Emanuel quickley had 25 points that’s great to see Bruce Brown’s tricking teams out here with that stat line with that 175 and two I don’t know five 54 21 it’s it

Is what it is we got to see some ramsy minutes in tonight’s game first game first game with the Toronto Raptors probably getting run I’m not going to judge him too too hard but one of seven from the Field Four Points a minus 10 made his free throws he loved

To see that but wasn’t able to knock down his threes had some rebounds at least hustling out there on the court which is a positive but again jont Porter was good Off the Bench Jordan War hit some buckets as he does comes in get some buckets Off the Bench I don’t know

We lost the Pistons we had a lead and then we’re just thrown in lineups where it’s just a you know and I got to turn this graphic into a losing streak because we are full out tank mode right now there’s no there’s no debate in it

There’s no debate in it here folks we are in full out tank mode and uh you know it’s a win streak we’re a losing streak proper a losing streak but I don’t know I think it’s doable folks I mean we’re hoping the Pacers lose a couple games so they get we need the

Sixers to win and the Pacers to lose the heat to win the Pacers to lose so they end up in the play in tournament they get knocked out the play in tournament so we get a lottery pick that would be huge to the the Toronto Raptors and then

We also need the Blazers to win and heck I’m rooting for the Hornets to win except when they’re playing the Memphis Grizzlies because I want to inch closer and closer and closer to that top five pick spot get us a top five pick get us

A top well it’ll be top four or six right now as is but get increase those odds right now and you know we can’t uh we’re doing a generational job right now in terms of uh tanking here now at this point but I don’t know folks dark or

She’s out here cooking in these games I got to get more Graphics to close off this season because the basketball is tough but folks let me know what you guys think about this Toronto Raptors game if you watched it if you didn’t go jayen McDaniels Let’s uh let’s

Nuke this this draft pick but you guys the best I’m signing out cheers

  1. Janiel mcdaniels is so had HE IS SO BAD BRO IT HURTS IDC IF WE LOSE HE GOTTA GO

    W tank tho

  2. The shitty thing about this tank is that the draft class is looking weak this year. Like of all the years to be shit we had to be shit this year. Really hoping that we get super lucky and whoever we draft turns out to be a star.

  3. Absolutely pathetic. We're really tanking for the 6th pick in a bust draft.. It's not like who ever we draft is going to move the needle next season. We're still going to be trash.

  4. Do u think ujiri will have the decency to address the fans and explain who is responsible for this collapse. …?

  5. How should we draft? Assuming that we will be drafting around that 6th spot in the lottery I would love for us to get a big wing player to play the 4 to pair with Scottie. They don't need to have great offensive upside but at least be competent as we have 3 scoring options with BBQ trio so i'd rather have someone that can be an impact defender. We seriously lack size and it shows. Abaji is athletic and strong but is just so undersized and can't shoot, he's a passable defender but not at a point where he can be bad offensively.
