Going to the Clippers and Bucks game while in LA today. Get to see Giannis punish people.

 

Yeah, Chandler's the right call eventually, but with the minutes limit right now, I doubt that's happening. Same with Muscala with the injury -- wouldn't mind him starting at all. Bolden can't shoot, right? I feel they need another shooter starting with Fultz/Simmons/Butler.

For me, I'd love the eventual rotation to be:
Simmons/Redick/Butler/Chandler/Embiid
Fultz/TJ/Shamet/Muscala/Johnson

And Zhaire Smith somewhere, probably in place of TJ.

 

I think they view Bolden's shot the same way they view Dario's 2-3 years ago - not great yet but improving.

I wouldn't mind getting Johnson out of the lineup and doing something like Simmons/Redick/Shamet/Butler/Muscala when Embiid sits. Just surround Simmons with shooters

 

I expected a start like this today from the Bucks

 

i’m supposed to be afraid of a 30 year old who has played two healthy seasons in his career? couldn’t be me.

 

It’d be hilarious if we go 1-3 on this trip with the only win being against the champs haha

 

Lopez on fire

 

Brookie the Wookiee babyyyy

 

We'd have to trade someone like Siakam or OG to get that trade done. Not worth it. Our team is good as it is.

 

I mean, I get it. I don't think either of those players are great but I could understand not wanting butler because of how good the chemistry is as well.

 

You haven't been watching Siakam this season eh? He's become a motor of the Raptors offense.

 

No, I definitely like him. He's definitely one of those guys you constantly root for because of how hard he plays and makes people around him play better. I'm just talking about on a skills basis and like I said, I could definitely see why you wouldn't.

 

They lost to the Lakers though. That was the breaking point.

 

I feel like I haven't seen hezonja in three years, he looks like a center rn wtf

 

Beverly having the game of his life

 

Awesome. lol Rockets

 

Man if Giannis could hit FTs today we would be winning

 

Giannis was ass today and that’s why we lost

 

The Raptors - Knicks game today is Exhibit A for why Siakam and Anonoby are our future. Kawhi and Kyle having a bad game? No problem.

 

Ok maybe he didn’t play like ass but shooting 4-10 from the line hurts

 

Ok now Middleton played like ass today

Hopefully he shows up tomorrow in Denver

 

SGA is killing us

 

Stupid game - Denver is gonna kill us tomorrow

 

If Giannis can hit FTs and Middleton isn’t ass the Bucks win but oh well

1-3 road trip with the one win being against golden state go figure haha

 

LA nightlife got to Middleton and Giannis
