Didn’t know Otto Porter was still in the league

Luke with another good rebounding game....9 min and 5 rebs.  Our 3rd string center.

Being tall helps sometimes but sorry, Kornet just not good enough for a 3rd string center, IMO. He has terrible hands and a complete lack of agility for an NBA player. I refuse to believe there aren't better options out there. Make a move before he becomes guaranteed in January.

glad to see Hauser finally regain his form from 3. bench looks alot better when he's knocking down those 3 point shots.

now if Pritchard/Horford can regain their form offensively the bench looks alot better. I doubt those 2 forgot how to shoot.

So apparently the Raptors’ coach and players took exception to Joe challenging a call with 3 minutes left and the game out of reach. I don’t understand why they’re getting salty about this. Should Joe stop coaching just because it’s a blow out? When asked about it, Joe said it was his obligation to coach the bench guys or something to that effect, no matter what the score was. I kinda agree with him.
