Lapses in defense don't bug me in the regular season, since the Raptors have a switch (see tonight, or the Dallas game, or Utah in the first half). The offense is what worries me. Siakam can get rattled and when he does he makes dumb decisions. Lowry can sometimes decide to stop shooting and he defers. Fred gets scared to shoot and drives into walls as he kills the shot clock. Gasol could easily get 0 points in a game.
Serge, TD and Norm are the guys that have no fear. And they can keep us in games. But they are also very inconsistent.
I wish we had one more scoring punch off the bench but easier said then done. I would rather hold on to OG than give him up for a scorer. With our switch heavy defense, we need his skills in the playoffs. He's a big body, can get deflections, block 3pt shooters, etc. Can't let that go unless we're getting a top flight player like a Beal (who's obviously not available).
But yeah, we'll lose a game or two in the playoffs when our offense goes cold. It's bound to happen.

was unbelievably lucky to be at the game tonight. It was crazy down there. Not too many but some people definitely left a bit too early. Even with all that excitement, i was still thinking it would be two leaf post game shows on the ride home but bless tsn radio for sticking with the raps. Thank you republic for all the good vibes.
