  • Really impressive that we won the last 3 games (Thunder, Hornets, Knicks) because we out-performed them in the clutch as all 3 games were even going into the final few minutes. That's what really good teams do.

      I was thinking the same thing. Even with the game close late in the 4th, I had confidence that we'd be the team that better performs in crunch time (especially at home).

      It wasn't that long ago that Raps would stay competitive for 45 mins, and crumble at the end. We've come a long way.

        Came here to post the exact same thing. Two most enjoyable parts of season so far: seeing some stretches of shut-down D (need it more consistently), and seeing the Raptors put away teams by just flat out making plays in crunch time. These were the things I used to use League Pass to watch other teams do, now the Raps are actually executing as a team at a high level. Love it so much, we've waited a long time.

        Some tough games coming up tho.

            bebe has played like 2 good games and people are ready to anoint him the new future C of the team. So, business as usual in raptor-land.
            No one's anointing him. Relax and stop overreacting.

                      • I may be the only one who prefers Raptor red over Husky blue.

                        And having blue numbers on a blue jersey? C'mon now...

                            Lmao it's true but it hurts, considering Carroll's salary.

                            I'm by no means giving up and Carroll, but man this team has had a hard time filling the SF spot. Carroll and Hedo were actually the highest calibre SF FA's in their respective offseasons, the Raps landed each of them, and things just haven't been turning out. Carroll's not nearly as bad as Raptors Hedo, but he's also not as good as Atlanta Carroll.

                            Good to have Norm and Ross in the wings.

                              I generally dislike everything about the Huskies brand. Give me retro purple or Raptors red any day of the week.

                                Agreed. Off all the alternate jerseys we've had under Masai, the throwback purple trumps Husky blue, OVO, and camouflage.
