If it comes down to last 2 minutes.....

[psrs1]

Please no DD ISO!

[KeonClark]

I shudder thinking of Demar in a game 7 with the ball in the last 3 minutes....

[imanshumpert]

Please no "anybody" iso.

I see no logic in running an iso late game if Durant isn't on your roster.

[Superjudge]

I trust DD as much anyone else.

I am not as afraid of Toronto down the stretch as I was in past years.

I mean, if they can get it in bounds I mean..... hahahah

[iblastoff]

dd iso vs corner 3 by amir. discuss.

[Jordan Evans]

Nobody should iso unless you've got iso Joe or Durant on your team. Just pray Casey realizes that.

[imanshumpert]

If somebody is hot down the stretch, get the ball to that guy.

That doesn't mean give it to him at the top of the 3 point line and tell him to iso and create a shot. Run a set to get the guy open or catching the ball while moving. As much as people don't like seeing DeRozan touch the ball late in games, if you run a play for him where he's coming off a screen going to the rim he's probably getting 2 points or a foul. It's when you ask him to pull some Kobe/KD shit that he fucks up.

Know your personnel. We don't have any superstars on this team so please, let's not pretend that we do.

Raptors are brutal in close games. They need to own the 3rd or 4th quarters like they have post all-star break, but if it does come down to the wire, I'd like the ball in Lowry's hands for him to make the play (either pass out or shoot). Similar to the play he made to get Patterson open for the game winner against Brooklyn earlier this season.

hmm, Im not sure you're right. We have the leagues best 4th quarter differential, AND almost ALL of our games have come down to 5 points in the 4th.

Well, planetmars is correct. We're 3-8 in games decided by 3 pts or less this season and if game comes down to last minute = we are screwed. Nets got better options.

[The Great One]

Give the ball to Lowry and let him create a shot either for himself or DeRozan.

[enlightenment]

Well, planetmars is correct. We're 3-8 in games decided by 3 pts or less this season and if game comes down to last minute = we are screwed. Nets got better options.

so I guess we suck at the 'last shot' type of situation, but we are pretty good at running away with a game in the 4th

They are also 1-7 in OT games.

In agreement. Run a play ...we got 48 wins as a team. Take what the defence gives you.

Haven't we lost 10 straight in OT?
