OT: The Official Toronto Raptors Thread

[Preston]

RJ is definitely a sloppy mess tbh

Mindz has abandoned all data. The Mark Spector of Raps fans.

From the Skip Bayless of the board.

Jonas was so happy to see zeke proven wrong after 5 quarters of basketball.

 

[Preston]

In fairness to zeke I don't think RJ being shit is a radical opinion in the bball nerd world

I've posted all the data. The data doesn't support your take on him at all. Even your own little meta analysis shows him being a 23 yr old that some metrics think is pretty okay, and others don't like.

I generally agree with what EPM says about him. Inefficient offensively but average overally as a total impact, and is about ~60th percentile player, which makes him a fringe starter or 6th man type guy for a lot of teams.

The basketball nerds are still caught up in him being a #3 pick.

True he seems to be hated by everyone equally. Nerds, old school types, everyone!

Yes it makes him a bench player making $25m a year.

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

is 25M for a 6th man that egregious?

No, it's the going rate.

 

[Preston]

Obviously his shooting isn't great but other than that is it an IQ thing for RJ? Looks like the talent is there but maybe he's just dumb?

 

[MindzEye]

Good starters make 35 now. Why is this a problem?

 

[MyNameIsJonas]

this is getting ugly

 

[zeke]

Darko hates RJ

Darko might suck.

He seems to like Trent.

Pascal, jesus, what was that pass.
