GT: November 26th - Brooklyn @ Toronto 7pm (Raptors dodge a bullet)

[The Great One]

Another thing. I've never seen a Raps coach that gets criticized or questioned so much by their own announcers. Jack was puzzled all night long with Casey's rotation.

Jason Kidd called us a "talent team"

Well we have some talent. This talent just can't play together tho. You put correct pieces and you will be true playoffs team.

But that's the life of Raps fan.

Cock teasing.
Lies, lies and lies on press conferences.
Stupid rotations.

Have I missed something?

[GLF]

But yes Casey did say he was happy with that shot. But what else do you expect him to say to the media.

Once again an ending to a Raps game has felt surreal... sometimes I cannot process what just happened in the last few seconds of a game.
Amir for 3... what? He's my fave player and all but... what?
I still remember the Charlotte game and my reaction:

...what?

It just... can't be possible.

Dwane said the look was for Rudy guys. Rocwell was wrong. Who ever wrote that on twitter made that up. So Rudy and Amir made the stupid play. Why Amir thinks he's this three point shooter is beyond me. He is forever picking and popping when he should be rolling. ***.

Yeah, it certainly looked like it was for him now that I think about it. But the way the play unfolded... ahgohaerrgaeoieh

[JimiCliff]

Oh man I'd been thinking they were down 3, when they were down 2...

...now trying to process what I just saw...

...GOOD LORD...

Great. Rudy chose to screw this game then. I mean I'm up 100% for tanking, but why would you give the ball to...... Orders from above I guess?

But it the plan was to give Gay a solid look, why not draw up a play that puts your top shooters in the corners so that their defenders can't bite down on the drive? If Novak's out there, his defender probably doesn't run at Gay and Gay has a chance to finish 1-on-1.

Lowry/DD scored 51% of the teams points.

If I remember, Novak was in the other corner (the right one). Pierce forced Rudy to go left, right into Amir's defender who was more than willing to leave him open.

Novak is unexpectedness factor in Casey's playbook.

No need to run plays for him.

Doesn't matter, if Casey said to go iso.

Probably Casey said something like, Rudy you go iso and if you see someone open at the corner - pass the ball.

I'm just realizing now how hilariously ironic that whole situation was. He's been taking pull-up jumpers like madman all season, and then when he had the perfect excuse to take another one he passes the ball..

If that's correct, then have your next best shooter in the opposite corner (either Lowry or DeRozan).
