    Few takeaways:

    – If you made it to the end, you are a TRUE raptors fan. Wow…

    – Jalen McDaniels had 4 turnovers and missed 2 layups in 12 minutes of garbage time. I think we found the worst player in the NBA.

    – 22 points for Gradey! Dick exploded tonight against the 14th pick Jordan Hawkins. Dick successfully beating all bust allegations.

    – Possibly Boucher’s last performance as a Raptor? Thanks for the memories CB.

  2. this is what rebuilding is fellas. get used to it 🙁

  3. Spurs_in_the_6

    McDaniels with the worst quarter of basketball I have ever seen. Masai has got to cut him. Send a message to the rest of the team that there is a minimum of pride required to be a Toronto Raptor

  4. Raptorsthrowaway1

    Sad to see Boucher go out like that if thats his last game

  5. FallenLemur

    A loss by 30, loss by 2, a loss is a loss. Move on to the next win. Hopefully this game helps Gradey gain some confidence.

    Great to see Boucher on the floor. No idea why he’s not getting playing time?

  6. Independent-Page-893

    Somehow McDaniels may have been worse than against the Rockets. Pretty impressive.

  7. FormerSlacker

    Nice reality check for fans who were really mad over last nights double overtime loss to one of the best teams in the league.

  8. TaylorRooksBathwater

    Im not even joking when I say Jalen McDaniels might be the worst player Ive ever seen play NBA basketball, and I saw Rafael Araujo get minutes.

  9. q1someguy

    This team is legitimately unwatchable without RJ against any half decent team.

  10. AngryHelicopter

    Hopefully the last we have to see of Jalen McDaniels ever for any reason.

  11. LabApprehensive5666

    Masai taking gradey to giants of Africa

    ![gif](giphy|RSj1cobnnoRDG)

  12. Altruistic-Emu7152

    Really wished we didn’t play until Friday, so I didn’t have to watch certain 🗑️players again

  13. McDaniels is so, so bad. How is this guy in the nba? He must be a God tier practice player.

    The body language on this team is hard to watch. There’s zero fight.

    Fuck it I’d rather see Nowell playing.

    Happy for Gradey though. Only bright spot today.

  14. Alright, so…

    GRADEY BEAT THE BUST ALLEGATIONS WITH A 22 PT GAME 🔥🔥

    McDaniels needs to be off this team ASAP, this man is *USELESS*.

    RJ is currently the glue holding this team together and the games are 10x more watchable whenever he is healthy and playing. I absolutely love him.

    And we’re guaranteed to get high in this draft. Alexandre Sarr, you are…

  15. OGnotAnunoby

    Was chris crying at the end of the game ? Noticed him pulling his headband over his eyes and walking off

  16. YodaBallsdeep

    I hope all those team “play-in”, team “quick turnaround” fans are finally gone after this. Everyone should be on team tank

  17. One final game remains before the trade deadline on the 8th. Crazy to think that there is a very real possibility that by the end of the week, Scottie will be the longest tenured Raptor.

  18. Maya-Inca-Boy

    Scottie Barnes out there looking like one of the guys,

    This team is night and day when RJ is missing

    Dick beating the allegations, give him GTJs spot immediately.

  19. GuessableSevens

    Gradey’s shot was falling. That’s great.

  20. chrisPjelly

    DICK LEADING THE TEAM 😤

    McDaniels, even in garbage time 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

  21. justsomedudedammit

    Great game by Gradey

    If he keeps this up we should add him to the starting line up next year

    IQ still needs to work on his shot selection

    Can’t say anything bout Yak. He was Yaking

    Scottie. Seems out of it. Come on Scottie

    Nwora. Some sloppy turnovers but still like him as a bench piece

    Gary. His defense is looking good. Shot didn’t fall in his limited minutes but no turn overs or fouls. He passes but he needs to make the extra pass. What type of development are the staff even doing? Shouldn’t this be an obvious thing to help him develop with? He’s 25 not 30. So weird

    Brown. Why show up now of all times? His contract is not worth keeping, need to get him traded

    Dennis. It was a decent ride but goodbye to you as well

    Chris. 11 points and 6 rebounds in 12 minutes. He seems to be on his way out. I’ll miss his hustle

    Jalen. What happened man, I was expecting him to be a solid piece

    Otto. We got Thad Young playing full minutes. How is Otto not able to play at all?

    Overall sad game but good developmental game for Gradey

  22. Icy-Lime-9760

    People on Twitter are way too mad about a rebuilding team. This is what happens when you try to be bad on purpose.

  23. Rejidomus

    Jalen McDaniels needs to be told to pack his bags and GTFO.

  24. Scobesanity

    REPEAT AFTER ME.

    We are REALLY bad and it’s ok.
    We are REALLY bad and it’s ok.
    We are REALLY bad and it’s ok.

  25. McDaniels looks like the perfect starter for the Hornets tank off

  26. FurtherUpheaval

    Not scoring 20 points in the first quarter will getcha 99% of the time

  27. attainwealthswiftly

    Rookie Dick letting that thing stroke and leading our team in points. What’s Scottie’s excuse today?

  28. cutedogowner

    Is there a reason why brown was playing in garbage time?

  29. AprilsMostAmazing

    I would have much preferred to have kept Pascal. The team after the OG trade had good fight. The Pascal trade, just killed all fight
