The Toronto Raptors completely blew yesterday’s game against the Chicago Bulls based on a multitude of errors late in the game but the only reason they were even in that position was a lack of execution in the game plan leading up to that point. Toronto had every chance to win this game and maintain Rookie head coach Darko Rajakovic’s unbeaten start but things fell apart in so many different ways throughout the 48 minutes.
Darko Rajakovic was hired by Masai Ujiri’s front office largely to help establish a potent half-court offense for the team but it has been difficult to do so with the hand he’s been given.
The Raptors were ready to make a change at head coach, but it seems like they were not ready to do enough to help him succeed to his fullest.

When your bench becomes as dependable as a faulty toaster, just kick it to the curb and have your players stand up. At least this way, they won't doze off mid-game, or maybe they will, and then you've got a whole new set of problems which might be more manageable.
It's true when they say; old habits die hard. Maybe the last 5min of the 4thQ is Raptors identity.
Still missing way too many free throws. WTF! That’s how we loose these tight games. Because poor shooting the free throws. Kcuf. And again, keep forcing the 3s when we are missing too much.
In on vacation right now and haven't had the chance to watch the first 2 games and I'm glad I missed this last one because I would've been pretty upset by the sounds of things. Thanks for the breakdown!
I love Dennis but he needs to come off the bench and let Scottie run pg
Gary is a g league player
Stop spending tickets money
Inflation guys
How on earth these guys don't know how to play basketball
the raptors front office has to be fired
my guy tellin' it like it is.. FACTS!!..
Pick n roll? Do you mean when Jakob commits an offensive foul or when Precious commits a charge or when he turns it over by over dribbling or Breckinridge a shot?
How do you like Pascal dribbling well beyond the 3 point line?
The Craptors are baaaack
Your analysis was spot on and it pains me to realize we have 80 more games to watch before front office does something…we will be lucky to get 3 to 4 wins out of next 11 games….I havent been this low on Raps chances since Bargs was selling sooose
At 9 sec the ref give raps the call . (No goal tending). Raps was leading by one . End up loosing the game and raps fans want to blame ref. Lol
Let's give JFL a chance , we need to immediately dump Flynn . How many more times do we run Flynn out there and end up with net negative. He is just not able to be our backup P.G. What is the definition of insanity … running the same guy out there and expecting different results. Flynn is consistent two games -14 net rating both games , duh !
McD and Dick are supposed to help shooting so far that has not happened.
Hang in there MAN❗️
The other side of me is saying it is only two games and the wrinkles just need to be worked out. The Raptors energy is a lot better, Trent , Achuia and Flynn have not got it going yet. Please management don't sit on this thinking too long before you make changes this year. Without Koloko you do have Maker down on the farm and without Flynn you do have Jevon Freeman Liberty down on the farm.
Was a crazy game. They were getting blown out, then they turned the tables came back and was now blowing out the bulls. Then some crazy sequences and questionable calls, then they fell apart with some bad decisions 🥴
AH for PM!
