Raptors (1-0) at Celtics (1-0) Preseason Game #2 10/5/22

[hpantazo]

That was an awful overtime. Pritchard and Kabengele forcing it, and Thomas and Jackson couldn't hit the ocean.

[radiohead]

Would it be safe to assume that Jackson and Thomas are fighting for that last spot? I’m fine with keeping an open roster spot though.

They are both pretty bad. Would rather keep Vonleh.

I think Vonleh is pretty much locked in for #14?

My bad, we did sign Blake Griffin. So one roster spot left if i’m not mistaken? Vonleh would probably get that if so.

Sam and Payton are keepers.

Yup

Thomas and Jackson not so much...

[slamtheking]

This movement is gross. Jackson and Thomas make it 3v5 for our offence

and maine awaits them with open arms.

I don't want them in Maine either!

They are both god awful. No upside at all…

have to say they looked positively awful in this game.  would be fine cutting them after they shower in the locker room tonight.

[blink]

we gave up 72 rebounds?!?!?  15 offensive
got pounded on the boards 

that isn't as good

[Surferdad]

Just remember:
We won't have to rely on the 3rd string to close games until the end of the season when we rest our starters.

No excuses. Raptors were playing their scrubs too. These 3rd stringers need to play better defense

They might be ‘mercy’ cuts; gives them a chance to catch on elsewhere or start packing for Europe.

It's preseason and 2 of those guys won't even be on the team.

It does say that but add the off and def rebounds up.

in these games we almost need to ignore the 4th quarters.
too many guys who aren't making the teams.  we were good up through 3 right?
