Thank you.

And with that said,
let me echo my first reaction...

We were throwing games??!!

I thought we were just bad.

The next step in the evolution of this story,
was the clever joke...beaten to death.
I appreciate the more subtle ones

And of course the other obvious one.
Maybe he can just blame it on his translator.


Alas, there was actually a game last night.
It was ugly.
How ugly?

Excuse me my friend,
in true Raptors fashion, I consider that a Raptors rebound.
Sure, they didn't get the ball,
but the Nets didn't score nor did they get the rebound, ergo,
the Raptors must be credited with a rebound.

For clarity, see below

Ironically, my theory was proven right.
It went to a jump ball in which the Raptors gained possession.
So they took a circuitous route, but they got the rebound.

Straws my friends.
We're grasping at straws.
And speaking of rebounds, here's another one.
In a game in which we were crushed on the boards,
losing 50-30,
we won both jump balls.
Strange.

Another straw to grasp?...

This put a smile on my face.

You know what didn't put a smile on my face?

The last thing I would want is for the two of them to come back from their personal losses,
and get smoked by the only other team either of them have ever known.

Thankfully,

So what is there to play for tomorrow night?
Nobody get arrested?
Don't let Precious get 20/20 on us?
See if we can make Deuce play all 48 minutes and do the halftime show?
Whatever you're looking at,
grasp something and enjoy.
Straws. We're talking about straws here.

Go Raps

Yeah I see them too.

Y'all still don't want to trade Trent for McBride? lol.

[The Great One]

Welcome back OG!

[The Great One]

McBride!!!!

[Jclaw]

Tough half court pass to Ochai. Hope he’s ok. Going to lose but maybe we can ease off on doubling Brunson and leaving 3’s open. But the talent gap is there. That said, I’m impressed with Temple every time he is on the court

[Jclaw]

Hey. We scored 33 that quarter!

[Beans]

Hip contusion recovery time is 2 to 4 weeks google says. I thought maybe Ochai broke his leg or something.

[Jclaw]

A Gradey game would help the medicine go down

[Jclaw]

Defence a bit suspect and having no Ochai won’t help

[The Great One]

Defense and rebounding is all about effort and hustle. These guys(especially the guards) keeps getting outhustled by the Knicks players. Masai take note.
