How do they not realize those are better shots than heavily contested outside shots. I'll take a contested shot from <6 feet than one from 24 feet unless we have Steph curry, Lebron or Durant jacking them up.
They went in to JV once to start the second half. Nice short turn around jumper. Bucket. Went in again. Post pass wasn't good, meant JV had to give up position to grab ball further out. Tries to dribble ball in, stripped, didn't get passed to again. Like any time he doesn't score, seems like they don't go back to him, yet the perimeter guys can just Jack up hurendous brick after hurendous brick. Very Frustrating.

Lowry/DD tried to split the P'n'R multiple times and lost the ball nearly every single time

Raptors will bounce back against New Orleans. Anthony Davis and Ryan Anderson left early tonight so who knows if they'll play Monday
They also did not match Houston's toughness. They got frustrated and complained a lot. Do I think they got screwed by the refs / that a lot of Houston fouling was passed off as stifling D? Yes. But you have to play through it. And they've got about a third of the season to figure it out.

Casey dropped the ball on that one. What do you guys think? Lost the room again? I'm pretty sure he would have said keep turnovers down but they ignored him. Seems like they are blocking him out. Hopefully Casey can get some nice time in with the boys and run more of his anti-turnover sets and fix this problem that has been festering. I can't remember a game this year where they didn't turnover the ball once but now the problem has become severe.

1. Lowry contrinues to struggle w/ his shot. He's been stuggling shooting the ball since before he was named an all-star. His decision making has been brutal too. What's up with all the homerun three's/passes?
2. DeRozan needs to calm down with the long 2's. Attack the rim when your shot is not falling. And i've been saying this for a while, he needs to operate more in the post.
3. Lou Williams might just be the 3rd most important player on this team behind Lowry and DeRozan.
4. JV's post up game is hilarious.
5. Terrence "The Raptors future SG" Ross. What else is there to say? lol. Did the Monstars took his basketball talent or something? this is just embarassing the way he's playing right now. This is a game where he needed to step up w/ Lou out. But just like all year he played like garbage. I honestly would rather see Landry Fields out there than Ross. At least w/ Fields you know what you're going to get. He's going to play HARD on both ends of the floor. Can't say the same thing about Ross.

One day on top of the world, the next day, just some schmucks in a turnover factory.

I also find we just have too many games where multiple guys on our team play bad offensively. Obviously when that happens we are going to get blown out
