@@GregHelms420 Yeah that's probably true and there are going to be fans who leave the raps get bad again, but there's also fans who became fans at the championship and are going to keep cheering for the raptors even through the tough times, and that's not a bad thing.
Kawhi is a SELLOUT you cant go 3-4 from downtown every game. It’s a matter of numbers. He’s shooting 50% from 3, even still, he’ll have games where he’ll go 0-4. This is normal with 10 mins of game time
@@OzzyNFL They're forcing him to play McCaw role of point forward. Not an excuse for his defense but he'd probably play better if he didnt have the ball in his hand so much.
Inigo Bantok I mean it’s hard to live in Canada only having one team and not be just a little bit biased to your team against a team that lives in a whole different country. Besides I think almost all commentators have a little bit of biased in them.
@@Realsteppa.0 After who Kyrie? I think Lowry is #1 as a team player and #2 has an individual player. Kyrie is #1 as an individual player but somewhere in the top 10 as a team player.
Watching these two teams show how important great coaching and culture is to a organization like it was cohesive team scheme every single play and player
I think the lack of a screaming, adrenaline fueling crowd is gonna give so many players more calm and focus. We could be seeing a lot of teams doing so much better than normal because the setting is so much more relaxed and intimate.
Freddy Calipari lol he’s been a lot better than the beginning of the season. It’s not like he’s lacking effort either. He’s definitely better than before but still got long ways to go. If he can just be an average defender it’s a W
Nick nurse deserves coach of the year every year with the team he got. This team drafting and signing no names and able to play both end of the floor is incredible
Can’t blame him. Like everyone else in the nba, sj hasn’t been playing. He also barely gets any minutes. Also, I agree what the person said above me. If he was drafted in better hands (ex; like the raptors) he’d probably be a much better player...
He's the prime example of a player who's biggest dream was making the NBA..now that he's here there's nothing left for him to accomplish..and it shows😂
@@blossom1057 I agree, he wasn't put in the best position early on to develop his game properly and built bad habits because of it. That being said, you got to admit, the guy looks more raw than bruno cabocalo in his first year out there. Which is embarrassing.
Raptors are the only team in the NBA with 5 or more players to average 15+ points, second in defence in the league, have a great bench and have amazing coaching.
@Jacob Vanderhooft if they win it all this yr theres a high chance they'll run it back next yr to. also they have money to sign a mx FA in 2021 because of the salary expansion. And does it rlly matter about age if both Lowry and ibaka are having some of their best yrs?
@Jacob Vanderhooft even then they have a decent prspect lineup with guys like TDII, FVV, boucher matt thomas etc. Also they'll have a late pick this draft so they can draft a decent center like zeke nnaji. on top of that ibaka doesn't turn 35 until 2024. also they have arguably the best front office rn with ujiri and webster, so they can definitely pull a decent trade off to help out siakam or even get more prospects and develop them. im not worried abt them not winning 2 or 3 titles and making deep runs in the east in the next 5-6 yrs if all falls in place for them.
Both teams are probably the deepest in the league, both have excellent coaches and both have great management. I would kill to see the Raptors beat the Clippers in the Finals. That would be such a cool matchup.
As a Portland native I will say that I would love to see this Raptors team repeat. It won’t be easy, and it might not happen with how competitive the league is right now, but the fact that they are still contenders after being counted out by so many people is really an impressive feat by these guys.
Nobody talks about Nurse enough, first half we were doing okay, struggled a bit right, 2nd half we DOMINATED. Whatever Coach does during the break, it's magical.
It's also cause we couldnt really celebrate our championship properly when we won, we celebrated for what 2 or 3 weeks then Kawhi left lol... So it was right back to business and being focused for us on trying to win another championship. Toronto as a city holds themselves to a very different standard than most if not all American teams..this current Raptors squad are a good reflection of that.😈🥶🐊🏆🇨🇦
Man! What a killer! :) This was the game to make up for missing the last game vs Portland on January 7th! Oh well, so far so good! Excpet Fred Vanfleet getting a "BANG"ed knee! I'm praying that we don't get any injuries this time around!
Serge Ibaka is gonna have such a nice long career and i guarantee the moment he retires a player exactly like him will take over his spot in the league and last 15 years doing the same stuff. Every team can use an Ibaka.
i know just scrimmage but nurk going off looking good happy to see him back and on the court with whiteside at the same time... 17-13 and 5 for nurkic..
Really great to see Nurkic back after that gruesome injury. Looks like he added a potentially reliable 3-point shot. They actually gonna try to play him and Hassan at the same time?? Also, that up and under is the best thing I've ever seen Collins do.
This bubble may even enhance Raptors cohesion since they all seem to be tight, and no drama. The teams that have harmony in the locker room are going do well in this bubble
The build them in their G league program. Raptors management also moved into the bubble in Orlando. Meanwhile other teams executives won’t risk it and are at home. Tells you who cares and who doesn’t.
fun fact stanley johnson is the highest drafted player on the raptors.
