RAPTORS STRONG WIN IS THE PERFECT GIFT FOR COACH DARKO RAJAKOVIC| RAPTORS VS NETS RECAP

And that’s how you start a back to back fresh off the All-Star break nice little mini vacation happy birthday coach they didn’t want to lose on coach’s birthday they didn’t want to lose to Dennis they didn’t want to lose to Brooklyn they didn’t want to lose

Period we wanted it more that’s all I saw we wanted it more we played at a different pace we wanted to win that game it was undeniable who the better team was and if Jack vaugh wasn’t fired oh he would have definitely been fired after last after tonight after this game

Oh his ass would have definitely been fired 32 points off of 20 turnovers 50 points in the paint 45 rebounds we hit 14 threes 46 fast break points yeah they we pack we would have packed them up if Jack vaugh wasn’t already packed up oh he would have been

Packed up after tonight it would have been over yeah they would have definitely gave his Walking Papers and you know the Raptors are known for getting rid of coaching and this listen it’s been a thing Scotty’s been known for getting guys traded and as a team we’ve been

Known for getting getting coaches fired it’s just you know they underestimate it these impact wins and these performances it shift the climate in certain organizations it just yeah they they ready to make changes after we [ __ ] do [ __ ] like this to them this was this was a good one this was a this

Good I was watching this game I was watching Caitlyn yo you you know she’s about to catch yo she’s about to catch my boy man I can’t she about to catch Pistol Pete I I don’t even think y’all understand how big that is but I’m watching both games paying attention

Watching Scotty be aggressive is beautiful I was I wanted to see what it was going to look like what type of pace we were going to play with what what we were going to look like off for the break I was expecting some type of you know adjustment period but nah we came

Out like bat out of hell and to be honest with you if bads side of Hell had had had you played basketball [ __ ] that was us we were gone ped Off to the Races out the gate Scotty led the charge had a solid double double when when he like when he comes

Out and plays like that and he was beating dudes down the court like speed he was playing at that I like it I want like um him and RJ and quickley I want to see how they finish the season off I want to see how they finish the

Season off because it’s going to bleed into the conversations about next season but tonight we knew we knew who the team was we know where the vibe was we know where the energy was coming from we just wanted it more you felt it through the you felt it through the screen there was

Nowhere we were going to lose to them we won every quarter that fourth quarter was just the icing on the cake I think they they packed it in once they realized it was going to be more of a struggle than they they initially bargain for and we weren’t letting up

Once we applied pressure it was over it was a strong performance from beginning to end book in the book in and neither like neither one of us is really playing for anything significant and I’m cheering for us but I’m conflicted cuz y’all got in my head got me thinking about yo we winning

I love to win but does this pull us away from the draft pick that we get like cuz you want I don’t want us to lose at all I hate losing but it’s like I want us to win but I’m I got my eye on the draft

Pick right so I’m like damn I want us to win but if we win too many games we’re in Jeopardy of je we jeopardized the situation which is one of the reasons why we started getting rid of people in the first place so that we would be in

This incredible situation going into you know in the summertime we got the extra paper the cap space What 37 million 40 million whatever that is we only got to spend 40% of that and then we got the draft picks which we accumulated trading players you don’t want to jeopardize the

Possibility of getting a high draft pick so it’s like you kind of it’s conflicting cuz when we play like this it’s undeniable that we can compete and when we play against sub 500 teams which is what I like when we come out like a lot of it is not basketball sometimes because we

All know our players know how to play it’s just a matter of are they motivated to play how motivated are they to play tonight they look very motivated they look like they came out with a sense of purpose like they wanted to win the game for Coach that’s one of the big

Differences when you find a why and you find you figure out why you want it and that that’ll lead you where you’re trying to go but I ain’t going to lie I was conflicted like come on are We jeopardizing something cuz y’all are contrarians a lot of y’all are just

[ __ ] contrarians if I say say one thing if I say up y’all going to say down if I say left you going to say right if I say I want us to win you going to like n the draft picks and if I say the draft picks you g like well you

Don’t want the team to win either way it’s going to be a joke for me but I hate losing and I hate something that I support and I care about to fail but sometimes failure is necessary that’s how we learn setbacks are necessary that’s how we learn if they if

Anybody knows that I know that I’m going through a little something right now but I don’t I like the hand that I was dealt like every day it’s like oh I hey this hand this hand I got ain’t that bad it ain’t that bad I like the

Pace that we played with the scoring Pace was a good one like once we got control over the game we stayed in attack mode and I think motivation is the key why we were playing was the key but I think we need to understand every game has its own

Significance right and going forward we got to understand that we have to carry that when we play against teams and apply the appropriate amount of pressure and really fight for control of the game and don’t stop until it’s over because it is possible the sub 500 teams we should be undeniably beating

The dog [ __ ] out of and then at some point we creep into the guys who are playoff bound and we do the same to them and then the top three teams we do the same them until we number one until we came but right now it’s a learning

Experience this this a it’s a good experience we deserve this one and it was just you can just tell we wanted it tomorrow we got the Atlanta Hawks and Trey young I hope we keep the same energy that’s what I want I want us to keep the same energy I don’t want to

Drop off at all I don’t I want us to keep the same energy I want us to crash the boards the same I want us to play at the same Pace I want us to continue to attack cuz they ain’t that they ain’t good either well they only got like four

More wins than us and for hey and you Houston Rocket fans hey we gonna talk tomorrow or later on to oh we G I’m G have that conversation we still in the same boat and you got beat they beat y’all ass tonight well man listen I

Can’t wait to talk to you rocket fans or we G to talk tomorrow but I want us to keep the same energy tomorrow whatever happens with the rest of this I just don’t want to lose to Trey young again we owe him one we ow

Trey young one we get him out the way cool whatever happens and this one right here was for all that James Harden KD Kyrie [ __ ] when they was talking when [ __ ] was sweet over there yeah they was talking spicy now was quiet nobody want to step to the microphone and speak

Their peace open mic is closed huh yeah all right lot of them net fans is quiet right now it’s quiet money over there a minute ago a year or two ago they was talking crazy and we kept telling them hey it’s going to change it ain’t going to be like this

Forever people don’t forget I don’t forget nothing tell you that right now I don’t forget nothing we got Trey young and Atlanta Hawks tomorrow I want us to keep the same energy that’s all I’m saying and I know it’s a back to back I know it’s a

Back toback I’m not stressing it but I just I just want us to beat Trey young you know what I mean just just get him out the way let’s compete again tomorrow and let’s let’s let’s get them out the way put that work in I I’m to see Scotty play at that pace

He was fast like tonight he was moving tomorrow I expect RJ to step up cuz RJ had a he was like what what five for 13 tonight you know coming off the vacay still gave us a full performance 12 points five rebounds seven assists good solid performance quickly came out

24 points put his maack down heavy G money I don’t know man like you don’t want to cosign it because you know how inconsistent it is that’s the only thing he’s consistent with it’s being is being inconsistent so you’re like you know is this this is more of a survival tactic

Right or is this the real thing you know what I mean like it’s hard is it Fool’s goal or not because the closer you get to it you start you don’t want to get too close up on it and invest too much time into it and realize you got

Got so it’s it’s tough because he’s H he’s having one of those Seasons contract year he’s having one of the worst seasons he’s had as a professional and now he’s trying to clean it all up and make it you know what I mean and it’s you don’t want to

Be fooled by it because you don’t know if this is the real thing or just a survival tactic to save his you know save his ass and and and and have a decent payday you know Salvage the situation I don’t think I don’t want to

I don’t want him to do that at our expense but if the investment is good cool but he’s going to want want more than $58 million and he’s he’s not worth $18 million a year at all not right now he would have to have two seasons of 20

Point per game scoring to get back into that conversation we gave him 18 off of potential cuz he was averaging what 18 a game at one point like it was off a potential now it’s like we see the reality of the situation nah we’ll wait we’ll see what happens

You know what I mean if we can get a good price then cool but we’re not going into this situation changing how we see you you know I mean but it was a good performance though but it’s confusing you know what I mean you look at Theo percentage you look at like

In these performances like he can put together a he can finish off strong and then now it it’s a confusing situation more so now you know what I mean you really trying to figure out like who this guy really is is he really the 41% three

Point shooting 20 point per game guy or is he the other guy we saw the first half of the season what are we going to get going into the future it’s very hard to dictate and these performances just make it more complicated cuz we need them we have

Grady dick who’s a who’s going to be a good replacement but if we got him now we can get a good price for him like what are we going to do like it it becomes interesting situation to have you know what I mean but we’ll see we’ll

Let it play out we’ll let it play out I just say kick the tires though on this one but tonight was a good night man it felt good the first you didn’t want to lose like I didn’t want us to lose the first game back you know what I mean I

Wanted us to have this is the perfect come this is the perfect game coming off of the allstar break especially for Scotty and for the team it’s a good sign coach’s birthday it was The Perfect Storm we got the result we wanted we understand who we are and
