I relish negativity and disappointment. It is not healthy. Somebody buy me a pony.

So much better than what I was hoping to see, but much as I dreamed the best case scenario would be. Precious seems like a steal. And the Raptors will still be able to trade Goran for something at the deadline. Too bad the Raptors can't just trade the players who don't make the roster for picks. They have at least three guys that they will be forced to let go that other teams would covet.
I don't remember feeling like this after any preseason game in the last 25 years. This will be a f*&%^ng scary team in two years. And they are going to break a lot of hearts (in opposing teams fans) this year. Top 6 in the east for sure.

Ewww why would Freddie make the roster lol. The man was the worst player on the floor today. Soooo many more deserving players. I don’t think he should just make it because he’s a big. Anytime he came into the game shit started to go south and when he left we played so much better. We literally had playing the 5 when we would take out Freddie and our team looked so much better. To me that doesn’t bode well for him. Trust me, let Ish or even Dekker get actual minutes with the main bench guys and not the 3rd stringers and they’ll look much better than Freddie. Bonga looked better than Freddie and he barely got minutes

Yeah Banton is fun and chaotic. All over the floor, mostly in a good way. The chaos and mistakes are just a raw player, needs lots of reps and some experience. But man he's long and fast, can handle, gets everywhere."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi Leonard

Scottie barnes is so damn intriguing, we've never had anyone like him before. I've been trying to deny it because it's an unfair comp, but the closest player to his skill set I keep wanting to go back to is Magic Johnson.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

That was a fun game! If that's Scottie's baseline, we're in great hands. He easily could have had another 6 points. Precious, Yuta, Danton, Svi looked great too! It's going to be a fun season.
Is it just me, but how did OG have 21pts? 21 on 12 shots... and he looked like he had a slow start too. Add Pascal and Gary Trent to this team... it's hard not to be excited for this team (Ya I know Embiid, Simmons and Harris weren't playing lol.)

I was only worried that his energy would feel low, as I’ve sometimes found him kind of flat in the past. But there was none of that. His energy was great and he was every bit as engaging as he needed to be. Perhaps had some semblance of nerves but as someone else said… give him a few preseason games to shake that off, and he’ll be smooth and laughing.
My early take … Alvin will be the voice of the Raps for a long, long time to come.
