  1. Y'all embarassing the whole country of Canada. Have some shame bro. Celtics are literally out 4 players and y'all got a healthy squad. Smh. Need a roster overhaul in the offseason. We badly needed new faces. This squad sucked this season.

  2. Klutch sports should have asked this bum to sit the last two games to prevent already low stock price plunge lower. I’m afraid even Orlando or Houston don’t want him we are stuck with this bum

  3. Fred and Nurse need to go, and please take Rico Hines with you, we became Sacramento Kings since he left and joined us.

    Bobby Webster needs to be fired for his position-less failed experiment.

    This is the worst shooting roster for the last decade.

    We need a hall of picks for Siakam and Fred and build a young talented rosters.

    It’s a huge failure on Nick Nurse that they need to learn things in the second last game of the season. What the were you learning 80 games of the season.

  4. Another 20% shooting game from Fred.🤦‍♂He should stop talking about he's top 50 and actually play better, consistently to actually help the team to win.

  5. big L to the "fans" that were justifying this garbage and letting the front office off the hook.

  6. I think a one page essay could be written on how bad the trade deadline could set this franchise back over the next couple of years. Bottom line 90% of gms would get fired for being that stupid y’all need to focus on the real problems.

  7. That was horrific. We played worse than a high school team. Everyone is to blame , our bench is non existent, our starters are worn out and not consistent offensively, it’s like we just gave up. I don’t see us getting past Chicago honestly.

  8. Can't express my disappointment in this team and especially the front office enough. shameful performance!

  9. vanvleet is completely overrated and overpayed however he is a leader and really respect that he speaks to the media after all of these horrible losses, siakam on the other hand only speaks to them when they win or when he plays well. HE IS SOFT AF. Both need to go this summer.

  10. bad team overall this entire season. No effort. Fred is too small. Derrike White festied on Fred. He is too small and cant defend crap.

    I hope we loose in the playin so we can get a high pick. Please Bulls win

  11. Next season I hope Banton gets more opportunities. I like his game play. He has IQ, quick and his catch and shoot has improved so much. He needs minutes.

  12. I suspected that nick and Fred are the main reason why we have such a bad flow, team chemistry… being around with a coach like nick and a leader like Fred.. it s very unhealthy.

  13. Lead the team in missed shots..and lead the team in worst shot selection too

  14. Nurse is a great coach….but not a good developer of talent. Name one guy who's risen from the G league under Nurse?

  15. Not that I would know anything that happens behind closed doors when cameras aren’t filming… but it looks as though everyone in the organization (coaches & players) is phoning it in. Especially after NN comments about evaluating his time after the season is done. Seems like none of the players want to put in any work for a coach that’s gonna bounce, and I don’t really blame the players for taking that attitude

  16. I think players have tuned out nurse. Its the same thing over and over again

  17. FVV has leadership skills as is shown here; so sorry that he did not champion the team this season successfully. It is not over yet; we still in the play in; and hopefully Raptors show its fighting spirit in the play in game and beyond.

  18. Player and coach trying to explain away this loss is just embarrassing. They should simply be pissed and that’s it…nothing but word sale at this point.

  19. We cant hit water from a boat… i don’t see us getting in the playoffs, unfortunately. Love each players but these pieces just don’t work together.

  20. Opportunity next week for what Fred???? Another opportunity to loose. You don’t play well against good teams like Celtic, Bucks, Grizzlies etc. if you can’t play well against those teams , why even try for the playoffs???😢

  21. This season was a disaster!!! Can't wait until this season is over, and we are done with Fred's and NN's show!!!

    Obviously, you will do better on sunday against Milwaukee's 3rd team, FVV!!! SMH…

  22. You weren't getting it out of the paint enough….. To who ???to do what??? none of you can shoot threes

  23. This isn’t meant as a dig, but when you have more undrafted players and G leaguers than ones that come through the ranks, this is what you get. We have a really good group of guys, but if we want to win, we need to be ruthless.
