[GoingBig]

Ohhhhhh! Stooooooone!
Slamming it doooooowwwwn - NOT!

[Raptorsss]

LMAO at Stone and Sullinger.

[ceez]

man i've done a pretty solid 180 on Olynyk. I thought he was going to be a grade A bust but he actually looks pretty good out there. At worst he'll be a solid first man off the bench.

I think one of the things that most concerns me about this roster, is that we really don't have a lot of versatile players. We have a lot of "specialist" type players - Novak = shooting, Gay = scoring, Demar = scoring, Hansbrough = rebounding, Fields = defence, Acy = rebounding. Stone can guard multiple positions, and Amir does multiple things well, but we really need each player to really execute their specific role for this to work. Not a lot of wiggle room game in, game out.

Fields can guard multiple positions...well at least 2. And he's also fairly versatile. I basically agree with the rest though.

Really wish Ross can play like this every game

Pretty good announcers. Lots of detail

Anyone know if Stone can actually shoot 3s? I've seen him take quite a few but I've never seen him hit one.

That's his main weakness. He can't shoot.

It's really amazing how often JV is able to make a block and just grab the ball. That's such a valuable and rare skill.

I think Acy might be my favourite Rap this year. Great attitude and hustle. Wish the dude had more talent.

Courtney Lee could have a good year and get dealt at the deadline to a contender.

At least Ross followed his shot (sadly another miss). Very few NBAers seem to follow their shot.

Good thing the first real game is against Boston.

Sometimes?

How many games have you seen him play?

Well I've seen every Raps preseason game. Though it was really hard to follow the last one because of shitty angles.

He makes good plays...sometimes. He also turns it over and is not a factor scoring the ball.

[mcHAPPY]

JV should be focus here.

Just got a pass and trip to line.

Thus far in 2nd half they are totoally ignoring him
