There always needs to be a scapegoat, right guys?

  1. meanwhile I’m getting worried about Quickley’s inconsistency when the FO is about to hand him 100-120M. really hoping he works on his layup/floater game this summer.

  2. Asking for effort, from not only Scottie, but also IQ, RJ, etc isn’t scapegoating lol.

    People expect effort, no one is expecting to win every game. 

    I’m not even going to get into FVV because talking about him and the reason why alot of people actually got on him, is like talking to a wall

    Raptors twitter is different, the majority of those people are ridiculous, and actually toxic.

    Comes from the top. The people who need to be held most accountable for what’s happened in these past 5 years are Masai and Bobby. Everything else is downstream from their poor decision making.

    You also forgot to add in Lowry and Demar, people here don’t remember but they got shit on so much over the years by this fan base

    Nobody is scapegoating Scottie.

    The people criticizing him are asking him to grow the fuck up.

    There is a huge difference between outright blaming Scottie and criticizing his actions

  6. tightcorners

    Even when we won the championship it was Danny Green lol

    Apparently we’re not allowed to criticize a guy for not getting back on defense, spending all game complaining, and leaving before the games even finished. Without being policed by the overly positive scottie stans that cant hear anything negative said about their golden boy

    Toxicity runs wild.
    Toxicity breeds toxicity.
    Etc etc etc

  9. This roster is tanking and expected to not be good enough to win.

    Not to be bitched out every night and roll over for a loss. Competitive losses are the scenario you want to be in. Development of players and team are expected. This team has no pride and I’m questioning the capabilities of the coaching staff at the beginning of this rebuild.

    Toronto is soft right now.

    I’ve seen WAY more posts like this than actual criticism. What’s going on here?

    Only one who will able to survive is rj because he already has

    Scape goat? Back in my day will called them “whipping boy”

  13. I guess we should hold no one accountable then.

    Although the Scottie hate is a bit premature, I understand it but this guy just saw all of his friends and coworkers leave, there has to be an adjustment period, at the end of the day he’s human too, this isn’t 2K, it’s been a jarring couple of months.

    Let’s give him another full year and see how he’s doing.

  14. Yup. A bunch of keyboard warriors always looking for someone to point at.

  15. LJPinstripes

    No put the president of basketball operations who waits until last minute to trade or don’t trade at all

  16. UnComfortable-Archer

    Not to be confused with GOAT, right?

    🐐 BaAaaAh

    Or is that a sheep sound.

    I’ll see myself out.

  17. TorontoRaptors15

    Every fan base in every sport is like this.

  18. fdisfragameosoldiers

    I didn’t see much of the game but despite some awful shooting he still nearly got a triple double. Infact he was close to having a T-D in all 3 of the last 3 games.

    But yeah… He trash /s

    Heaven forbid a guy gets frustrated with being on a losing team from time to time.

  19. 90% of this subreddit will never scapegoat Barnes, they will continue to make excuses like they have been for 2+ years..

    “Hes young bro be patient” I’ve heard that one like 10932812 times

  20. Altruistic-Fig5892

    It’s toxic sometimes for sure…but like what else are we gonna talk about when we are garbage…. Our hope for the future did a dumb thing so of course people are gonna want to talk about it
