    Well Poeltl was pretty bad today too. Bebe was doing pretty well but that was mostly when Adams was sitting. Ibaka was garbage though. Would have rather just seen JV keep playing but its tough when you have 5 fouls and the game is tight.
    I thought Poeltl was solid in the second half. He was really bad in the first quarter though.

    • Raptors looked tired. Casey coached tired too, lacking some of the flexibility he's shown of late. Bebe was quite brilliant in his brief appearance and while obviously he isn't as strong as Adams (who is except maybe Embiid) he's longer and quicker which might have caused some problems. Westbrook may not have had such an easy time getting to the rim. The reluctance to play Siakam more minutes was also frustrating. He has been one of our best players and easily our best defender in the past month. He should have replaced Ibaka and I hope gets bigger minutes as the season goes on and into the playoffs. I thought the Raptors got screwed by the officials the entire game, not just at the end. I agree with others who say that Adams gets away with holding, shoving and whatever else he does on virtually every play. That foul on Serge at the end on the foul shot lineup was ABSURD.

        He had a pretty good put back on a DeMar miss late in the 3rd I think.. but was pretty invisible today. Looking at the box score, was a -4. Only guy with a negative +/- on the bench other than Powell.

              If the game was called impartially than the Raps would have probably won. But they really weren't that good today. 1PM starts are the worse.. but come on.. OKC was shooting like high 70's in the first quarter. They put up 40 fricken points. And that's not because the refs were bad. We had no answer for Adams and Russ.

              You can play possum against the dregs of the league but you can't do that against a team like OKC. They are a hard team to defend.. and they have some pretty good defenders of their own.

              Wonder if this game brings our defensive ranking down to 6th or worse? Was nice being in the top 5 in both offense and defense, but today's game was brutal defensively.
              Nah, late in the season for any one game to swing it much. Still 3rd in ORTG, 4th in DRTG.

              • Heck, that game wasn't even the worst defensive performance of the year. There have been three worse games. Including the last OKC game.

                    • DeRozan is going to get a heavy fine i think which is unfair because he's absolutely right.

                        They should 'punish' referees too.
