Not sure what you guys call tanking, but moving two weeks before the season with no prep and no centre, then figuring it out and climbing to 4th before essentially every key player got COVID or some other injury to knock it off the rails again…
… that wasn’t tanking. Tampa Raptors were a lost year, but they didn’t poison the core be removing all the experience and leadership to intentionally lose games.
Leave that poisonous approach to the Kings, Wolves etc. Raptors are a winning organization. **** tanking.

This is about what I expected. Fun, athletic team that can't hit a shot to save its life and is going to get out of control sometimes as it tries to force swing plays and transition buckets.

we playing hero ball, but we have no heroes lol
barnes needs to run the point over FVV. if hes not a catch and shoot 3 and D guy hes more often than not a negative out there

I don't understand why Nurse refuses to play Boucher
Not that I care too much because I'm expecting the team to be pretty bad this year, but I'm at the game right now, still wanna see them do better tonight lol

Yup, Precious keeps trying to force these alley-oop plays and doesn't have the height and jump combo to pull it off lol
Also glad to see you're one of the first guys to share my opinion on FVV, I've always thought he would be so good if all he'd do is get open and catch and shoot 3s, absolutely hate him as a playmaker though. But he seems to be absolutely revered in this city, I've always found him overrated though I appreciate what he did for us in our championship run

i mean the first 2 1/2 rounds he was trash in our championship run, thank god he showed up for the finals lol. hes just got too much tunnel vision to run an offense. he needs to play off ball or he looks like this.
