So why aren't The Raptors winning?

[KingKat]

That foul to Jonas really worked against the Raptors there.

[jays_fever]

Norman f***ing Powell lol. 19 FTA attempts. Night and day before and after the All Star break.

 

He should be higher on the depth chart than Ross by this point

Him AND a pick for Greivis!!!

[dineke]

Durant + Lowry + Powell leading us to a championship I can see it now.

[KingKat]

What kind of positional flexibility does a guy like Powell have? Could he replace Derozan if the later wasn't brought back?

[Frag]

Raptors will face the Pacers in the 1st round.

He plays the same position, as does Ross

Carroll looks pretty good, and they're gonna need him if they want the Pacers series to be stress-free. There's like 10 people in basketball that can feasibly contain PG13 and he's one of them.

I don't think he should be counted on to be that type of defender with his knee being the way it is.

[z3r0s]

So p big games to determine the raps draft pick right? We'll be getting Denver's and they are tied with the Kings and Bucks.

I doubt Carroll out plays Patterson in the next round. Patterson will make him work on the defensive end as well.

Prob the most fun I've had watching a Raps game this year! Wright and Powell are both legit man. What a season.

[Frag]

I'm guessing Powell will be given minutes in the playoffs.

[Trouba95]

But we aint beating GSW...

 

NBA was ruined ever since they came into the spotlight. No one will ever beat them.

jesus, wat

[dineke]

are people actually going to be watching kobe's last game over GSW going for 73?

Not me. But what a great choice to have. Kobe is about as big a douche as there is in sports but there's no denying he's one of the all time greats.

for me, kobe retired 4 years ago.

lol teams can have successful seasons if they don't win a championship.

Curry is cookin

Wow. What a Montly crew they ran out there. Wow. Never watched it, but Caboclo looks like he needs a bit more time.... or a lot of time.

[Stoneyen]

Powell is seriously impressive. He's shooting the 3 at an impressive rate since he became a starter, is excellent in transition and plays great defense. Great poise and character too, we've really got some impressive young talent with Powell, Wright, Bebe and Bruno (plus two picks this year, and two next year). What a great regular season for the Raptors

[SpeedyGose]

If Norm and Delon are for real (which I believe they are) you have got to think a trade is coming in the offseason. Maybe Ross + Delon + pick for a good 4?

[Caper]

WIKIPEDIA: Powell was selected with the 46th overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft by the Milwaukee Bucks. His draft rights, along with a 2017 first round draft pick, were subsequently traded to the Toronto Raptors for Greivis Vásquez

 

How lopsided a trade was that?

[Horses Fart]

I'm far from a Lakers and Kobe fan but the last 5 mins of that game was pretty good.

[havok24]

73-9 wow.

[burlingtonbandit]

Insane Kobe just going off. How the guy can move still is beyond me...

[burlingtonbandit]

This is better than Jeter's last game. Crazy stuff.

[SpeedyGose]

It was fun to watch but I don't see it as some incredible performance... Give Luis Scola 50 shots and he can probably get 45-50 points. Jazz also were pretty stupid for not double teaming him all 4th quarter. No one else touched the ball
