Man, I hate when Al is out..
Quoting Nick from the now locked Ime thread:

At some point you have to blame the performance on the court on the players on the court. Every loss is not the coach's fault and every win isn't because of the players.

Crazy how athletic and physical this Toronto D is. They can't score for crap, but love their defensive versatility.
Recovering Joe Skeptic, but inching towards a relapse.

Tatum! Smart!

What a great response!

The whistle has been off, but the body language hasn’t changed. These Raptors are limited in the half court; if the guys eliminate fast break and 2nd chance points, it’ll be tough for them to score.

It was a horrible shot - I don't care that he made it.
That just encourages more bad shots.
