OT: The Official Toronto Raptors Thread

I've got no qualms with 62% TS Norm getting legit minutes.

RHJ I like, but I think he's a guy who you have to manage matchups for. He really only works in this offence out of the dunker spot (he...uhh...can't shoot and this offence is predicated on everyone who is spacing outside being a shooting threat) and if the other team has a legit bench big, RHJ disappears there.

Davis and Boucher though, 100%. Both are versatile at the offensive end, make an impact at the defensive end, fantastic is transition. They just deserve more minutes.
 
Thing is norm and Ibaka barely played in the playoffs - and were our worst players when they did. (Obviously neither did mccaw)
 
Norm deserves a lot of credit for changing his shot selection mid career like he did. He basically only takes shot on fast break opportunities, or spot up 3's.

Less than 6% of his shots are taken in the mid range. Early career he was as high as 25% from the mid range.
 
DeRozan just put Boucher on a poster and may have ended his life.

But the Raptors are really, really good again. Weird how getting healthy fixes a lot of things.
 
He legit does nothing. He's soft defensively, and nobody on the planet is worried about him scoring so defences sag right off of him.
 
Man can't make a bucket.

No ball movement. When you miss a few 3's the answer isn't to take more, it's to defend your dick off to try to get out on the break, and to use a ton of off ball movement in the half court to try to get layups, to the line, etc.
 
So lazy and so stupid at both ends. I miss when Pascal used to be an aggressive dog at both ends of the court. That long rebound that Mills just pulled in was all Pascal giving up after the shot contest.

On the offensive end, I'm sure Pop is just fine with letting our offence revolve around Serge's jump shot.
 
OG made Demar disappear in a hurry. Who knew that putting McCaw on Demar was going to be a problem. Seriously, who knew?
