Preseason game #3 :Raptors vs Clippers 10:30 et

[MACK11]

So many turnovers

[GLF]

But for real though, how can we not be giving our #9 pick not get some burn but our pick at the end of the 1st round and an undrafted player pretty much give him normal rotation time?!

Because so far he has impressed more. But trust me poetl will probably play tonight at some point. Most likely garbage mins though

[Abbas]

is Demar playing 2nd half ?

[MixxAOR]

Damn Clips' starters are killing our bench

[GLF]

Its so sad. I don't think we will ever get Atlanta Carroll on our team. He just can't seem to recover from that knee. Looks so slow and looks like he has zero lift.

is Demar playing 2nd half ?

Hasn't played in the 2nd half

[rocwell]

is Demar playing 2nd half ?

I think he's done for the night

is Demar playing 2nd half ?

Nope.

Lets also not pretend this is a "fair fight".

Clippers are playing their regular rotation and main guys are playing heavy minutes. Paul has played 20 minutes in one half of a preseason game. That's ridiculous. Griffin and Jordan not far behind.

Raptors are resting Lowry, starting a guy who probably shouldn't get any real NBA minutes this year (only even might because our normal 3rd stringer is injured), playing young guys and experimenting a lot, and have been mixing up the lineups from game to game so there really hasn't been continuity for any groups out there. JV, DeMar and Pat have all clocked a lot of minutes, but in varied lineups, and then you have things like VanVleet and Powell getting more minutes than Cojo, Carroll and Ross on the perimeter.

Basically, Raptors treating this like preseason, Clippers treating it like it's a playoff game. Who cares if Raps get blown out.

Raps have done what they probably should have with early preseason games, especially with 3 games in a row with only a day rest between each. They aren't taking it too seriously.

Poeltl is in! And the bucket plus a foul!

Casey is infuriating with big men.

They've impressed more because they've been given more opportunity (playing time and touches). JP is seriously treated like a garbage man.

...on queue Mini-JV scores.

[MACK11]

Great rim run by Jakob

To be fair, in terms of vertical at least, he never had good lift. He's not that athletic a player, especially in that sense.

[Abbas]

Nope.

Okay thanks

Going to bed now, need to wake up at 4.30, was just watching for Demar tonight

Very true. I'm not worried. I would like a little bit more defense cause we have looked horrible on that end but whatever.
