Game #37: Detroit Pistons 114 - Toronto Raptors 111

How many times he has bitten on it? I don't think this tendency is going to continue, it's becoming quite fun predicting it though

Well I remember one game for sure last year where he bit at least two times for a blow by dunk. Drummond tends to give up on plays really easily when he is beat. Seems very non chalant.

Going radio again. Easy win with my streak? (25-4 so far. 7 games I've watched)

Gotta disagree. Drummond's D has warts, but overall he's a plus defender.

Would you guys get up to watch Raptors at 3 am?

Absolutely! Morning lectures are the stuff of nightmares anyway!

Yeah, when I was in university I was literally sleeping in front rows during morning lectures. One professor, who was a Canadian actually accepted watching raptors games as an excuse (he was die hard fan as well).

I've never really looked at the stats but he is the 6th best player in the nba based on defensive win shares. I'm not sure how its calculated but I imagine that number could be boosted a little with his dr% which is one of the best in the league.

I'm going into College in a few months.... in fact, I want to get into Sports Broadcasting. As someone whose a huge fan (I had a VC poster on my wall at 6. I knew all his stats, every Raptor by name, even played the game at the time) I hope I get that lucky.

Omg. Neither! I'm not his girlfriend. The white girl is the one I met, she's really really nice. The other chick is his girlfriends friend and she's dating GV or sleeping with him.

whats your instagram account? got any sweet pics of bruno/bebe?

Fundamentally disagree with the JV point. We need to go to him early and often.

I have no problem giving JV the ball in the course of a play where he has position on Drummond. But, force feeding him in a one-on-one situation at the expense of the rest of the starters is no different than running ISO plays for the guards. It kills the offensive movement for a look that's maybe a ~45% shot. I'd rather start with a balanced attack.

The 3rd against Boston was perhaps the best quarter I've seen JV play this year, and I don't remember him having a single "throw the ball to JV on the left block and clear out" post-up look. He got his underneath the basket, on putbacks or rolling. More of that.

[Jangles]

This happens with our guards all the time. If the options are a contested long 2 by Lou or GV or a force feed to JV down low, I'd rather go to JV. Or at least have some balance.

Yay, Jack! <3
