The Raptors lose again, slashing their record down to 15-20. The Raptors came out cold in the first quarter, but we are still in the game. Similar to the recent Raptors game, the second half was a disaster. This seems to be a common theme with these players. Nick Nurse has to start answering some tough questions and possibly work with the front office to make a trade happen.
What did you think of the game? What should Nick Nurse switch up for next gaming?

Still too early to say the season's over. If Raps are still struggling by the end of January then we can talk about looking at next season. Maybe we can get Robin Lopez type big body to take up space and gobble up rebounds. Raps just had no luck last night… we lost to a full stregnth good team. Reason we have Koloko and Juancho starting is hat we need some depth off the bench so we can't have Boucher or trent starting. We need Precious and Fred back to add some depth and defense. Otto will be back maybe sometime next month hopefully.
At the beginning of the year Raps had no chance at being contenders this post-season. If we are still struggling close to deadline, then a move is needed to reshape the roster.
Tank time baby!
Sun going to fry us… but I don't think the sky is falling. All we need to do is get a backcourt that runs a functional team. I think we make a trade for a function guard who puts up 10ppg and 6 assists. So we need to go traditional not 6-9. Maybe trade FVV for a C. Trade GTjr for a pick and draft Anthony Black. Kiss the year so long, and do a mini-rebuild. This 6-9 experience, as perhaps one could see, leaves us wide open vs a quality C, and with the struggles of FVV, totally exposed vs a quick guard.
Never forget you were as delusional as the other content creators on raptor takes.
You still got that Fred jersey up? 🤣 You still think NN is a great coach 🤣? You still think Siakam can take us to a chip as 1st option? You still think Fred is a “really good” player 🤣
You should bring back the poll that ask how likely are the Raptors to be under .500 this season. I'd bet there're still some delusional fans who think this is a championship contender.
there are a lot more buyers than sellers this year would be a great oppertunity to restructure since we arent winning anything this year
Freds out..u lose by 20..simple..u will always lose by 20 without fred
Marc gasol…serge ibaka..where are you!
The team just needs to balance the roster, not a circus of 6’7-6’9 wings who can’t shoot. Obviously I’m not saying to get rid of guys like OG, Pascal, and Scottie, but we desparately need shooters, and a rim-protecting center.
Wembanyama time
We if we dont go on a win streak of a minimum 5 games in the next 10 we dont stand a chance. Im already done with the season to be honest. I watch, i pay attention to the score. Just tired of seeing the same issues night after night. This team needs a refresh like a new start to the season or something. The vibe around the team is low as shit
Hold on sec..did u say Playoffs…hehehe, lol, stop it..Playoffs, omg..this team ain't making playoffs, this playing s^%$ is the worse thing ever created..it's so dumb, beyond stupid…This franchise needs 2 get rid of some dead weight and get ready next season….Playoffs, lol…
trade fred vanvleet, pascal siakam and chris boucher. build around barnes with this years draft. sign josh hart in free agency this summer to replace fred, and sign a few free agents that can shoot the 3.
The end is already here. Started when they lost twice to Magics.
We'll never know what Porter's three-point shooting might have meant to this team. Consider the narrow losses we've suffered … a couple of more treys might have made all the difference.
Let us analyst the Raptors at present…Nurse coaching is below par from opponent coach..a lot of mistake decision by nurse sometimes he is confuse at pressure time. 2nd the first five Siakam,fred,trent Jr and barnes their offensive play are all the same one on one they are ball hog very few are catch and shoot so if you play those guys you may not even touch the ball. Shooters like hernangomez have to set a play as her is a catch and shoot player and a very good one….Ujiri didn't do much off season and alot of teams upgraded and some got better new players coming from injury got better with the new team
Yes the are dismissal not because of losing but no offense.. Play Jeff dowtin Jr more is the only true point guard on the Raptors. Malachi is good just needs to play more.. Nick Nurse is wearing his players out with small rotation and high school defense
Jeff dowtin Jr should be first off the bench the rest of the season because he is the only true point guard on the Raptors.. Period
The players cannot take NN's system any more. They have reason, it's been 3 years of OG & Pascal getting banged up against gigantic centers, the Raptors are undersized game after game
2 or 3 more loses in next 5 games, we should officially tank.
With friends like you, who needs enemies……get the hell out…..Happy you're not Masai…
Raptors need a center trade for Myles Turner but idk what Indiana asking price ? I’m pretty sure they want Barnes?
