I know you're a fan and you're bound to disagree, but I just went and watched the video and it seems like the right call. Cousins tipped the ball on the inbound, so the clock should have started then. By the time Ross retrieves the ball and turns to face the basket, the game is over. This isn't the first time in history a play like this has happened, and the referees reviewed the timing and the got the call right. Sorry.Quote:

Oh man, christmas day basketball needs to become a tradition at my house lol
Sixers aquire: Cory Joseph and raptors 1st rnd pick whenever
Kings aquire: Jonas Valanciunas, Terrence Ross and raptors 2nd rnd pick whenever
Raptors aquire: Demarcus Cousins, Omri Casspi, Nerlens Noel
Works on paper, think it's possible?
Pg: lowry, Vanvleet, Wright (ir)
SG: demar, norm
Sf: carroll, caspi
Pf: Sullinger, 2pat, Siakam
C: Cousins, Noel, Bebe, Poeltl
Would be tempted to say the raps would be on par with the cavs if this happens.
I love you Westbrook.
Revenge only works if it's in a series. Regular season games don't matter to GSW or CLE.Quote:

If the raptors go to the finals, I'll wear a canadian shirt for a week.
A red shirt with a maple leaf + pics?
yes
Awesome ill do the same, but only if ur hawks beat my raps out of the playoffs. I think thats about equally likely to happen.. sound fair?
ATL is more likely to miss the playoffs than beat the raptors.Quote:

I think any injury will probably really hurt them though, they cant really replace anyone in that starting lineup.
Hawks probably aren't making the playoffs. I think you should just wear all american shit if the raptors don't go to the finals.Quote:

Well the raps lost this game tn, but the refs didnt help. Raps vs cavs+refs at home. The NBA is so stupid sometimes.
And yes I know the raps didnt play well tn, but ya this was ugly as hell. Refs ruined the game with all the bad calls.
Klay Thompson dropped his dick on the Pacers tonight. 60 points in three quarters...good lord.
Reaaaaaaallllllllyyyyy hoping masai can spin a blockbuster at the deadline for boogie. Honestly the only trade I actually see helping this team make it to the next step. Without boogie, the raps are tier 1.5.
Raptors vs Cavs with this lineup who wins?
Raps:
PG: Lowry/Joseph/Vanvleet
SG: Derozan/Powell
SF: Carroll/Caspi
PF: Sullinger/Siakam (pending on who fits better with boogie), Patterson/Caboclo
C: Cousins/Bebe (who has actually been a major bench piece this year)/ Poeltl
Vs
Cavs:
PG: Kyrie/Mowilliams/Kay Felder
SG: Smith/Shumpert/Liggins/Mcrae
SF: LBJ/Dunleavy/Jefferson
PF: Love/Frye
C: Thompson/Anderson
I honestly would hesitate to take the king on paper, the raps would have way more depth and a big three that could at least hang while LBJ was on the court. I really dont see any viableish trades for any other player that would make the raptors this good. Milsap would be awesome, but it would be much harder to think about trading JV and banking on sully at the 5 to win the east.
Clippers vs. Warriors tonight. Should be a great game. Hoping the Clippers can win so SA has a shot at the one seed.
The trade you proposed a few pages back would be accepted by sixers in a heartbeat. The kings would turn that down 10/10 times though.Quote:

Ya the gsw defense is actually looking like a strength with durant at pf (as I predicted) only way to beat them is to limit transition points, slow them down and outrebound them.
Blake Griffin had a terrible game. Multiple turnovers, wasn't aggressive, and lackadaisical defense. I think it's been awhile since he saw a defense that athletic and super quick. With GS limiting Paul, it was up to Griffin and he couldn't get it done.
@philly I dunno man, jonas and terrence would be 2 young and controllable assets for the kings. I dont see them getting a much better deal then that. Depends on what you think about giving those two a chance to lead a team instead of bein behind lowry and demar. Ross' trade value has to be it's highest ever right now.
Griffin is really the lynchpin for that team's success. Jordan and Paul will always play at a high level. Griffin just isn't consistent and relies too heavily on the midrange 2 which is the worst shot valuewise for anyone to take.Quote:

the better the raptors play the even more less likely your crazy ass trade will happen
That makes no sense lol. If jonas and ross play well youd expect them to be worth more..
No, because people aren't dumb. They aren't going to pay extra for what they can probably get through the draft.
Ok so one your assuming sacramento isnt dumb and two you think two young nba rotation players on very good long term contracts is replaceable through the draft?
There is a pretty big benefit to having players like ross and valanciunas locked up during a rebuild because they could potentially be peaking when and if sacramento cashes in on the process. With boogie on that team sacramento isnt getting a top 5 pick. With valanciunas and ross, you can tank with players who you know are already solid nba contributors and build a winning culture around them.
You can easily make a case for trading boogie for real nba ready depth and picks or you can go full "trust the process" mode with boston and aquire jaylen + picks imo. Dont see any other team with enough assets to aquire boogie, but sacramento would be dumb to keep him beyond this year imo.
Your problem is that you over value your team's players.
there's a word for that....Quote:
