Game #25: Denver Nuggets 106 (16-7) - Toronto Raptors 103 (20-5)

[007]

And the best +- on the team.....CJ Miles with a plus 9.

Okay, that made me chuckle

Nuggets are trash. Raptors played half-asleep whole game and they couldn't put them away. Got gifted this game.

We're 20-5, currently 3.5 games ahead of anyone else in the league, and 3 of our losses have come down to the final play of regulation (plus OT in the Celtics loss)

we are 6-5 against teams over .500

not a knock against the raps, but not a powerhouse either.... too many easy teams they have slayed.

Lowry 1-7, 1-6 from 3pt
FVV 1-7, 0-5 from 3pt

That's the story of the game right there. We got terrible PG play tonight and still only lost by getting screwed over.

Everytime we lose, it's these two shitting the bed.

Anyways, what I learned from this game is if they want to be a serious contender then they need to make a trade. This bench is not good enough. Miles and JV are terrible. OG is cringeworthy whenever he has the ball. He needs to go. VV has regressed. Delon Wright is basically the only reliable player they have on that bench lol. Yes Delon Wright.

Tip of the hat Scraptor. Now get some rest so that you're ready in April.

I wasn't paying attention to the thread tonight, so maybe people were pointing this out, but Lowry looked injured. Maybe shouldn't have been playing, given how tentative he looked.

[MixxAOR]

Shouldn't have Ibaka in. Should've just went small with Pascal, OG and switch everything.

I was about to say why they aren't even playing that great but I forgot they have Jimmy now.

Could easily be a mini losing streak coming up. Raps gotta play just a bit better and make some dam threes

That's kind of the whole NBA though. It's all about guards hitting their 3's and who's hot or not that night. Hope Adam Silver is happy with the dumbass rules that have created this nonsense type of basketball.

Naw he just does that in clutch situations. Forever passive.

[G__Deane]

when was the last time anyone has seen that foul called near the end? I cant even recall.

Refs fucked us plain and simple

Never

Everytime we're first in Power Rankings. God fucking damn

We're actually 7-5 against teams above .500, which is tied with Boston for third-best in the league, behind Milwaukee and Denver

Beating good teams is difficult. The Raptors, compared to the rest of the league, have been fairly good at it so far

Jokic is way too strong and crafty for both those guys.
