Fred is absolutely not a winner yet has an attitude like he’s been a number one guy on a championship team.
Fred, Too many 20% FG games🤦♂Also 6 turnovers. He often struggled against 76s.
If I was the sixers I wouldn’t want us in the first round.
We would have won if bumvleet didn’t brick so many shots. His hero ball failed as usual
Fvv needs to go
We need to trade Siakam and build around Scottie and og he just doesn’t fit the team
So pumped scottie is breaking out now ??? Now ??? Not when we needed him all season…but now …start the fucking parade
Jacob played a solid game per usual…definitely need to resign him
Could have used Gary in this game …we struggled from the three point line
Barnes need better teammates, instead of 2 “all stars” who can only play well against bad teams
Fire Nick Nurse
Dowtin had a tough game
They lost this game in the first half. They forgot to bring the defence. Worst first half ever. Once again, Nick Nurse didn't make enough use of his timeouts early before it got out of hand. He can't wait until they're down double digits to use a timeout. Their defence was awful right from the tip. He should have called an early timeout to see if he could wake up the defence right away. If they had gotten a couple of early stops, maybe they could have cut 20 off the 76'ers first half scoring. Then they would have had a better chance.
Good Game
Barnes is not being utilized well by this Raptors version of a team.
Barnes can’t even make little baby jumpers on a consistency . Sleepy need to work on jumpers, threes and become a triple threat. Lay ups and dunks won’t cut it.
Barnes is the future
We decided to be the 9th seed instead of tanking get a high draft pick and see Scottie average a near triple double we’re smart
Man the same thing every game. Pascal disappears in the 4th, Fred shot chucking, and Scottie trying his best to carry the team while the 2 "best players/leaders" do fuck all
I've been giving Fred the benefit of the doubt all season, but not tonight. Why on earth was he smiling and laughing about down the stretch after turning the ball over and throwing the game while the team is supposed to be fighting for a playoff spot? I want to buy a plane ticket to Toronto just to go yell at him. Put him on the bench.
76ers would be pumped to play the Raptors in the 1st round
Minutes Police 👮♂👮♀👮🏾♀👮🏾👮🏼♀👮🏿👮🏿♂👮🏻♀👮🏻♂👮🏼♀👮🏽♂👮🏿♀🚔🚨…where ya at? It's past time to arrest NN for the way he has been running the core starters into the ground all season long, playing every game like it is a playoff game rotation wise, starting from game 1. Can't develop the bench for the end of the season if NN doesn't consistently play them at the beginning of the season.
How smart was it for Bobby and Masai to trade a 2023 FRP (think Walker Kessler) for Thad 'DNP' Young? Very bad asset management.
The only ppl the FO should be trading if they are smart and care about this team is #23 and #43 I hope they resign Gary tho.
Barnes haters maaaaad 😆
This team is going nowhere with Pascal as the first option. This man only plays well against poor teams, and ok teams. He rarely shows up against big teams, and if you go back to the series against the Celtics a few seasons ago you can see Stevens had a simple plan for him which any team that plays against us in the play in, or whatever should study. That plan was to just crowed him in the lane and don’t allow him to do his spin move. This will lead to him trying to over dribble, or take a long shot and those are the weakest part of his game. Steven just gave him all the 3 point shots he wanted and he bricked most of them like he did last night. Also it seems like Fred’s handle’s have gotten worst, or he’s dribbling way too much. We’re seeing too much of these random turnovers while he’s just dribbling the ball above the key. One of those unforced turnovers led to a 4 point play by Maxey. This fan base always have excesses and of course we jumped to the excuse that Gary didn’t play. Listen Harris didn’t play for them either, and this season he’s been killing us. We didn’t lose because we didn’t have Trent. I still can’t understand how people have watch this many games and still tell themselves that this is a good team. Some people just can’t except reality! I’m done with Pascal, Fred and Nurse. It’s time for this team to have a new identity, a new first option, and a new section option. I’m sick of Pascal’s and Fred’s 2 man basketball, and Nurse allows it so he can go to. Bring in the starboy Ime Udoka 😂
Here's hoping we're just good enough to get ti the first round 🤞
We need to give more touches to Fred. Nurse and Fred might ditch us for Houston otherwise.
We can’t build around Siakam and Fred. It’s time to move on…
Imagine if we could’ve had a top 5 pick as well smh
Okay I missed this game, first one all season. But the +-says Freddy was +8 and the 6 minutes he wasn’t out there, the team was -15. Ik it’s hard to watch him a lot of the time but think about that
We need to let fred walk, resign everyone else, and recognize scottie is the first option and siakam is the second option
I think siakum needs to go looking at last game when you get paid that much money you have to make things happen and he just doesn't.
Save Fred and pascal for victor.
Bye Bye Pascal, Freddy, OG
Y'all be hypin up Scotty too much all the time! It's hilarious
The bench sucks
Weiscamp?
This team is what it is, up to management to realize what they have and make the necessary changes.
Raptors only know how to beat loser teams , like Hornet, Pistons and other other. . Raptors player like Fred, Gary and Siakam are play inconsistent and shit . They are not deserve paid that much.on their contract.
