Pritchard is going to have a lot of run tonight. I like waters but he looked like a chicken with no head for good parts of that first quarter. Nice to see waters make that three.

Is Kyle Lowry a Hall of Famer?

My feeling on Nesmith D

He has what 4 fouls already?

They missed twice as many as we took.

I'm getting the sinking feeling Nesmith is not the knockdown shooter he maybe appeared to be

He may need to find his range and game at this level it happened with McDermott, Hield, and even Booker for a stretch. I'm more surprised at his foot quickness defensively. Presently surprised with his athleticism which I didn't see  a ton on in the tape

This is what? The 2nd or 3rd game of his career?

Which poster called that people would clamor for him to get time and quit on him a few minutes into his career if he wasn't great right away? I should've saved that post.

The C's have been atrocious taking care of the ball this season.  Losing Kemba and Hayward is an obvious factor, but there's been so many careless turnovers too.

Toronto is just playing ultra-aggressive defense on the ball, trusting that we can't even break it to start our offense.  And it's working.  Brown had no space to operate and we can't even get Tatum the ball.

If we didn't foul as much Robert Williams would literally have 3+ blocks per game. He's almost always there help side in time for the block

Pritchard is really offering a dimension that we haven't had for a while. He's so good at driving and kicking out to find wide open shooters. Kyrie and Kemba and Rozier were always looking for their shots.

Semi looks much better and more prepared to score and attack this year.

Last penetrator we had like this was probably IT4
