So weird to say but I think T Ross actually has value at that contract.

He's been much more consistent this year. He can earn his contract if he keeps playing like this at least.

His contract is an absolute bargain forget value. If he waited to sign he could have got a lot more. Same with JV.

For sure. 61% TS percentage.

 

Its a shame Carrol is hurt because if he was healthy or they had someone else productive at that cap hit they'd have a really really good team.

 

Masai has done a great job of having a very good team while stockpiling young productive players who make basically nothing.

I'm not sure Carroll is actually hurt I just don't think he's going to play back to backs in attempt too keep him fresh. We will find out for sure tomorrow but I expect him to start and play against Golden State.

 

At some point we are going need to add an additional wing player. Probably when Delon Wright gets healthy.

It would still be nice to trade him for Noel.

So what's with Poeltl not getting any playing time anymore? I hope they're not just falling in love with Nogueira that they started to neglect him. It's not like he looked lost out there or anything.

He's been pretty bad overall. Shows nice hands and instincts but he definitely needs to add strength to become a better defender and rebounder. Almost all rookies are bad so its nothing to worry about. Bebe has certainly outplayed him.

Would it make sense to send him to Raptors 905 where he could play more?

[burlingtonbandit]

Kind of basketball related but this is crazy. If you saw Fallon the other night you may have already seen the same trick but this is one is crazier.

This game tonight is ugly. Not playing well on either side of the ball.

[Spanky99]

lol @ that call?!?!

[GD]

Refs are f***ing horrendous

 

JV on the court in the 4th??

 

Also lol @ this being Poertl's first appearance in 5 games thanks Casey this wasn't predictable

[GD]

Eagerly awaiting my soul being crushed by the ball bouncing off Demar's foot

 

Actual prediction: That hesitation stepback he's done like 4 times this game. No prediction if it goes in lol

[GD]

Lol that's the same play Demar hit that game winner against Orlando on a few years ago, with Lowry instead of Calderon. And no Ed Davis screaming "my n********************"

[burlingtonbandit]

He made it but I still hate that shot.

[burlingtonbandit]

Powell allowing another blowby...

[GD]

Was that continuation or bonus? That couldn't have possibly been on the shot

 

 

Wow, no one boxing out so it was continuation. Lol

[GD]

Holy FUUUUUUUUUUCK YOU ARENT ACTUALLY KOBE

[Orgfiller]

Holy f*** that went in and out.

[burlingtonbandit]

Going to need to defend in OT. Perimeter defense has been awful this season. I like that Casey gave Lowry and DD a longer break than usual so hopefully that helps this OT.

[Spanky99]

Holy f*** that went in and out.

 

So close!

[Orgfiller]

Patterson has been awful on his shots this season.

[burlingtonbandit]

Demar sometimes takes way more difficult shots than he needs to.

[dineke]

"sometimes"

[Spanky99]

Yikes!

[Orgfiller]

Wow, the FT shooting has been horrendous tonight. DD, JV, Lowry all missing tons of them.

[GD]

his foot wasn't even on the ground..

[burlingtonbandit]

Terrible call.

[Laika]

Someone explain to me why that was a block by Patterson on defense but an offensive foul at the other end. I don't get it.
