There's too slim a margin of error to worry about a professionals morale or readiness. Derozan and Lowry shooting and driving and keeping it themselves is 100% why we won yesterday, and without Derozan the Cavs would have whooped us. We'd be 1-2 without them shooting, 0-3 without them and JV all shooting.
Chris Webber went on a run during summer league about how when he was in the league he made a point of getting touches for his role players because he knew if he had their back, they'd have his. It's not 'unprofessional', it's human psychology. Whether playing pop warner football or in the NBA, guys give more when they get more. It is what it is, and you can either use it to your advantage, or complain that our brains work the way they do while you miss out on benefitting from it.twitter.com/anthonysmdoyle

Seriously though Air Canada was a shit nickname for Vince and this is even worse for Demar. Need to come up with something better.

I think we tend to overrate our role players here at RR, and just how "deep" this team actually is. Cojo is awesome in his role but can't shoot, Pat does all the little things but seems to miss all shots every November and December, Carroll hasn't been what we thought we were getting from Atlanta whatsoever, Ross is a flake who makes a couple nice plays and a few good passes every 2 weeks and we go "THERE HE IS"..I'd really like Powell to be the scoring option off the bench but Casey gon case.9 time first team all-RR, First Ballot Hall of Forum

You might be a fan of DeMar, I'm a fan of the Raptors. So when he's making em successful, I'm a fan of his, when he's detrimental to the team's success, you'll probably be calling me a hater again.twitter.com/anthonysmdoyle

He's already taken over as the face of the franchise in mainstream media. He will be the all-time leading scorer by years end and probably go down as the greatest Raptor of all-time.

Deebo sounds like the name of an obscure Star Wars character, possibly a robot.
The nickname quality in the NBA is quite terrible since the 90s.Heir, Prince of Cambridge
