[Demographic Shift]

Impressed with how quickly Bennie Adams and Leroy Richardson defuse things...quick word to Serge and angry Serge doesn’t appear

He'd have a much easier time if he just had access to this message board during games ��

I'm pretty sure Raps employees have a special clause in their contracts which stops them from joining the Raptors Republic.

We're acting like this after every beatdown:

He’s 20. This is a freak injury. Nothing to do with minutes

Hamstring/Groin injuries are more likely to happen if you're tired. It's very easy to overstretch when muscles are tired.

You get hurt when your tired or distracted...I know he’s 20..but he looked tired in the first half...hope it’s not serious..

It’s an unfortunate injury for sure. I hope he recovers

But I don’t blame suns coaching staff for playing 40 mins, tht injury could’ve happened at any time

Norm is sucking really bad tonight...he is a micheal carter Williams turnover and foul machine...
Just a bad game I guess but maybe he can use a sports therapy session..it seems to be all mental for him...

I'm a big Norm fan (aren't we all?), but his regression this year is starting to worry me a bit. He was the only Raps player with a negative rating tonight, and he was -14.

Is it safe to say that OG has already supplanted Norm as the fan-favourite young gun?

The Decline Of Kyle Lowry was greatly exaggerated

C Webb, Isaiah and McHale heaping some praise on the Raps new game AND Coach Casey. Always nice to get some love by the HOFers!

Was that actually a thing?? What, after 6 games? 😂

Made it more interesting than it had to be with some poor bench play (Powell struggling in that creator role again), but mostly just outclassed them, as they should.

Nice to get some extended looks at Poeltl with the starters, even against some soft competition. Had better stretches tonight, though later on struggled a bit to contain Len. Same for Ibaka at C - lineup did OK, held onto a lead if they didn't really build it, though it was nice of the Suns not to post Monroe on him at all, and to sub small to match shortly thereafter.

Anyway, getting extra looks at lineup variants was nice. As was the win. Now, what to do until Friday...
