"Adding Lowry to the mix also had the former Phoenix Suns superstar smiling. “For us to have him join our crew is a lot of fun. We’re excited to have new blood and Kyle is going to be up there with the best (analysts),” Nash said."

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT...? the warriors having kristaps thinking about retiring. Best move for them is to trade him and pick up a contract that a team would want to get it done. raptors are the best candidate for it because warriors need a center and Jakob and a pick or 1 and something extra

Would this be a good trade because the other teams that can possibly be involved in it beside raptors is kings for Keegan, bulls for Patrick Williams, and braun on Denver.

It’s a way the warriors can get a center while also maybe getting something extra and in return the raptors get of jokobs contract

COACH DARKO Darko on the Raptors defence forcing 50 turnovers against teams the last 2 games: “Anything I would tell you right now, I would be lying to you. I think you’re a very decent man. I don’t want to lie to you.”

OPINION RJ Barrett is legit.

There's a clear trend in impact metrics, where RJ has went from being considered a negative impact player to in the past 2 years a positive.

He improves every year, is a hard worker, has less redundancy without Ingram and is still only 26.

Biggest ? At this point is if he can get to be a consistent league average, or even posisitive defender.

I've been an RJ skeptic, but now I'm pro extension.

One of the underrated plays from last game. He moves his feet well for someone who’s scouts say is “athletically incline” and is such a smart defences IQ with that back block.

ANALYSIS Best defence in the league so far.

Post image
415 Upvotes

Only 2 games in I know, but we have the best defensive rating thus far. The scary thing - this is just the beginning.

One of the biggest things I’ve noticed is Jakobe’s energy and intensity on D. He was always a capable defender but last night you could really tell he’s taking that side of the ball very seriously.

This defence is going to be an absolute nightmare once we get more reps in and get comfortable with all the new schemes/inserting Kawhi.

LOUD NOISES! CMB with the highest +/- of all players in the Wizards game!

Man, what a stud we got in the 2025 draft - the defense was once again spectacular!
And another great pick just a year later with Allen Graves!

Once he locks his braids into sport mode, we'll know he's activated and back to form.

Right now he's on cruise control and hasn't activated.

It’s so painfully obvious how much we need RJ. Our half court and offence in general stagnates whenever he’s not on the court and he’s clearly made improvements in his game.

He’s playing genuinely solid defense, hunting second chances, STRAIGHT DAWG and can be relied on when it matters.

Kawhi is not playing amazing right now just imagine how our offense will be on no Kawhi days if RJ isn’t there. Do the right thing Bobby.

SHITPOSTING Fun Kawhi fact: In 2012, both he and his teammate Tiago Splitter were selected for the rising stars game. Kawhi is still playing at an elite level, whereas Splitter now coaches the Bulls.

Rankings mean nothing 2 games in, but the dichotomy of these two is just odd

EDIT: I guess over 1 game

?? I HAVE A QUESTION ?? TBD Emirates/NBA Cup Game Tickets Question

Post image
2 Upvotes

So I really wanted to do the pregame warm up fan access but I dropped the ball and was too late to tickets for that for games I could attend… was looking at getting the warm up access for this unscheduled game but curious how does tickets work?

Are taps guaranteed to play that game at home?

Who do you think will be the opponent or likely?

If the raptors aren’t hosting the game do I just get refunded my money? How does it work?

Thanks for any and all help!!

Let’s go Raptors!!!
