Scottie Barnes' Era is Here!

[A.I]

Sheesh. The half time numbers were as ugly as it got for the team and Scottie. He stepped in the biggest way possible in the second half. He has been great all season but this was his superstar performance.

[The Big Chill]

That was an incredible performance. His confidence is growing.

Was looking like an injury was dogging him or something in the first half, then he just powered through and leveled up to take over the game. Magical stuff.

Great and all, but hopefully it’s not worse when the adrenaline wears off.

anyone still wanna trade him for dame?

anyone still think he might be a piece to build with but not a piece to build around?

anyone still think he should come off the bench?

I’m not sure why, but I’m not 100% sold that this is the Scottie we will see for the whole year. His 3 point percentage is a full 14% better than last year, yet he’s taken a small dip in free throw percentage.

I don’t want the bottom to fall out, I'm just still holding my breath.

Absolutely amazing start of the season for Scottie. The 3pt shot looks awesome, and he’s shooting with confidence. That’s half the battle.

I'm not too worried about the Philly loses, those were on back to backs. The Bulls game was absolute bullshit. The Portland game was embarrassing, they should have won that one. So far I’m happy with the season, they gotta figure out the turnovers.

We have a superstar!!!

Scottie is shooting 42% from 3. That's not sustainable. Those are Klay Thompson numbers. I expect it to go down as the season goes along. The good thing though is he's now shown the ability to self create and take those kind of shots. That is HUGE.

It's time to figure out the right pieces to surround him with. OG and Dick are the obvious ones. I like Schröder as well but he's already 30 years old. Porter I like as well but he's injury prone.

Those are the only players that I would keep.

We need to surround Scottie with HIGH IQ players that can shoot. This team right now have so many dumb players.

I low key loved the DNPCD for Boucher last night. He's all energy and no brains. The bench is so much better with Otto getting those minutes instead.

Boucher is good if you need a boost of energy. Otto is a great vet, just gotta pray he can stay healthy.

It sucks Koloko hasn't been healthy, wanted to see what he could do in his second season.

Yeah really a shame about Koloko.

Precious is low IQ as well but he's better than Boucher so would be nice to get him back also.

Boucher doesn't just provide energy. He's a guy that gets you second chance opportunities. Raptors are not trying to win the position game, or is not prioritizing it like Nurse did. But if you did as a team, Boucher would be super valuable. If he's getting DNP-CD's here, he should be a prime trade candidate to a team that wants to value extra possessions. Like maybe to Philly for example. The problem is he has another year on his deal after this one, and Morey is trying to prioritize cap space as well for next summer.
