By the way the Raptors had the #1 DRTG for the month per NBA.com and the #2 NETRTG - https://stats.nba.com/teams/advanced...12%2F31%2F2017"We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi LeonardComment

Sweet, but only 2 of the 14 teams we played have a winning record. This month will be a better gauge of where we stand as 9 of 15 games are against teams with winning records.S.R. wrote: View PostComment

Technically this month will also be a poor gauge of where we stand, just on the other side of the spectrum. But yes, I’m very interested to see how the team upholds their recent success against a much tougher schedule through January (which eases up again thereafter).Scraptor wrote: View PostComment

VegasInsiders has us as 20-15 vs the Vegas spreads thus far.
Cleveland has been the worst NBA bet, 12-24-1, so a bit of schadenfreude for all the suckers betting the Cavs this year.If we knew half as much about coaching an NBA team as we think, we"d know twice as much as we do.Comment

16 of 30 teams make the playoffs... 9 of 15 is just one more than a good representation of the league, and is balanced out by 9 of 15 being at home.DanH wrote: View Post
This month will tell us whether we are truly a top-5-type team or in the 6-10 range where we've floated around the last few seasons.Comment

No month tells you anything definitive about any team. Except maybe April or May.Scraptor wrote: View PostComment

Haha we hated Casey for this and he turned out to be ahead of the curve. 2-3 PG's is not at all unusual anymore.3inthekeon wrote: View Post
If Casey wins CoY I will buy a Dwane Casey poster and put it up in my basement and I ain't joking. I need to find one of him flashing that ring."We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi LeonardComment

I definitely don't like the 3 PG look at all. 2 is perfectly reasonable, if it's the right 2 (that is, one can defend SG's, like CoJo or Wright), or if you are matching up to the opposition rolling out two PGs.S.R. wrote: View PostComment

Why not? Delon can definitely play against smaller SF's (especially if the other guy playing the 3 is actually a 1 or a 2), we've seen recently Delon and FVV are both 2 of the Raptors top 3 pt shooters and 2 of the Raptors top ranked defenders (the timing was good for giving this lineup a run). They're also steady, solid decision makers who don't get rattled. Makes sense to have them out there with Lowry and DD imho. Mind you so do several other combinations, my most preferred would likely be the 5 starters or the starters but with JV subbed out for a shooter or a second PG, depending on match-ups. Last night the starters played pretty uninspired ball overall and Delon/FVV were very good.DanH wrote: View Post"We're playing in a building." -- Kawhi LeonardComment
