Game #22: Toronto Raptors 104 - Philadelphia 76ers 110

[golden]

Pascal needs to be more agressive. Hes moping around out there body language doesnt look good. On the brightside OG is having a great game

Lowry has the ball and is controlling the tempo of the game. Lowry needs to let Pascal initiate sets and call a plays for himself, like when Lowry & Ibaka were out.

Cameroonian Derozan looking shook

We added more talent back to the lineup and somehow we look disjointed and worse. It's like when the Celtics got Kyrie and Hayward back and everybody thought they would steamroll the NBA. Chemistry is a real thing. This is on Nurse to figure out how to make all the pieces fit. There's not lack of talent here... we've seen it.

[The Great One]

Watching Lowry tonight brings me a lot of bad playoff memories. He's in classic form tonight. Kawhi Leonard isn't there to save your ass anymore. Stop whining and stop fucking fishing for fouls and just play the game.

[RikkJames]

The fun seems to be gone since Lowry and Serge got back, seems like the old days again.

I agree with this. He overachieved and expectations grew. This is what he is in reality

Disagree. Something changed the last 3 games. We got Kyrie back in the lineup.

Just some in game load managment for fred?

Raptors PR says it's a knee contusion which is good news (not an ACL or anything).

I thought once we shipped DeRozan that would be the end of the Raptor punching bag era, but apparently not lol

Style of play changed overnight from: high energy & defense first to methodical, half-court pick & roll and lazy closeouts & rotations on defense.

The fact that he came right back to sit on the bench leads me to believe its not to serious

[bertarapsfan]

Wouldnt mind throwing the wild card boucher out there and running the bench mob unit at some point to try and get the energy up

[The Great One]

Lowry keeps fishing for fouls smh. Get him off my team.

Style of play has changed. That's pretty obvious. We're playing Kyle's type of game on both ends, not Siakam. FVV & Pascal complement each other.
