Game #33: Toronto Raptors 94 - Washington Wizards 91

I remember when people on here were arguing that Demarre is a better player than DeRozan when we first got him ...

Yeah, I remember that too lol.

DD should just focus on making the corner 3 at a respectable rate.

[Barolt]

See what a difference it makes when you dont put the whole fucking bench on at the same time? DD or Kyle have to always be on the floor. Or JV. Our bench is just too shit for that

It's not that the bench is shit, it's that those guys are bench players for a reason.

[GLF]

Our system just doesn't get Demarre the same amount of good open looks the Hawks system did. We look for him to work in the pick and roll too much. He is horrible at that. Horrible.

Simply put, guys like Demarre, Ross, Joseph, even Patterson(although he can't hit open shots this year), are much better in a situation where they're getting open looks, which generally come off assists. We're one of the worst teams in the league at generating assisted buckets.

[Jangles]

Uh oh, JV dropping to #2 C on the roster?

The bench is shit. Stop this. No one can create anything for anymore and guys like Patterson can't hit the few open shots they do get

[Zainab]

There was a time we used to swear by Patterson. Good 'ol days

Dont think any team has almost every shooter playing off the bench

Biyombo sucks, Hump is just worse

Between Biz and JV, one of the two has a 60% true shooting on 20% usage. The other has 53% true shooting on 11% usage.

Also, JV has a better Drtg this season.

So no.

[Barolt]

Gonna give Casey some credit. Against the Bulls we had a bunch of units on the floor that made no sense. It's been much, much better tonight.

[rocwell]

oh fu*k off

Hes going to use Biz late and get burned

BB just the better matchup. With how Wall gets to the rim. You need a shot blocker to protect the rim.
