Hey, at least they didn't choke like the last game, eh?
- Honestly, Kyle Lowry is playing a well-rounded game, bringing in the intangibles, getting his teammates into scoring opportunities. In a way, he's playing like Jason Kidd in his later years with the Nets. However, on a roster like this, Lowry can't be the fourth highest scorer on the team AND also shoot horribly. 3/12 and 1/6 from deep? This is unacceptable. His presence needs to be felt throughout the game and respected as a scoring threat, otherwise, it will be the same old Raptors again.
- I'm a #JVHive but I'm really sick of all the wide-open midrange shots that opposing teams are getting via JV PNR. Gordon Hayward and Jayson Tatum got going because of those free shots that JV is giving them.
- What's up with the perimeter bricks being thrown around these 3-game losing streak?
- Fred VanVleet - 2/12
- Kyle Lowry - 2/15
- Kawhi Leonard - 1/11
- OG Anunoby - 4/16
- Can Nick Nurse come up with crunch time plays where at least 1 off-the-ball person can be a threat to score?
- With the way Lowry et al are shying away from scoring and just be happy as a facilitator, I would nominate to put Chris Boucher on the floor -- at least this guy won't have any conscience jacking up those shots (and they may go in too!)
