Raptors (33-12) at Celtics (25-18) Game #44 1/16/19

Looks like Hayward came to play.  Too bad our defense is still lousy.

He is hitting some shots which is nice. But you can tell he is still slow. Got beat to a loose ball, got blown by guarding Leonard.  We will know he is back when he starts driving to the rim.

[blink]

turnovers a big difference in the 1st, we had 5 they had 1.
gotta crank up the def and start getting easier baskets.

Al not focused on those passes from Kyrie

[Who]

Al looks bloody geriatric out there

I think because the team is short handed with it's bigs lately that Horford is playing through something to try and keep the team afloat. He just hasn't looked right over the last few games.

BAYNES!

I think one way or another, this team needs to add another big to the roster. Horford still doesn't look 100% and Baynes isn't for now either. I know we love Timelord but realistically we're going to need a veteran big as extra depth to really help going forward.

Yup.  Now that Baynes is back I wouldn't mind just resting Al for multiple games if he needs it.

Jaylen really is a horrible free throw shooter at times

Agreed. He's beaten up, and without Baynes (over the last few) he's been beaten up even more

[blink]

are we going to continue to get burned by former celtics?  Moose has two buckets already.

At least he's aggressive tonight!

When he builds his game from the inside out he's so much better

I suspect they will wait until after the trade deadline and add a big who is bought out like they did with Monroe last year.

That works too. All I'm saying is, SOMETHING has to change (or be added).

Good defensive sequence there

B Team fixing what A Team messed up

[gouki88]

Oh how I've missed that Baynes mid range
