There were some expectations coming into this season, and there has been a lot to complain about. I am curious to know what irks people the most though?
Bargnani
Lowry's injury
The refs
DeMar's contract
Fields
Casey's coaching decisions

For me it's DeMar's contract. I hope he can earn that $10M contract, but Bryan bid against himself and was not in a rush to do it. He lost flexibility by doing this so early and any good faith I had towards Bryan went away after that move.
Casey's coaching is also something that annoys me, and I hope that improves. I'm just hoping he's trying to get a good feeling for his roster and sticks to a 9-10 man rotation after 5 more games.
My answer would be too obvious and derail yet another thread.

Casey... Rotation, playcalls, time outs and his interviews all suck.
bargs basically making the team play 4 on 5 at both ends of the court

Barg's for not being what we all desperately hoped he'd be after last-year's teaser and being what we all deep-down knew he was.

casey easily. bargs ridiculously poor play in the pre-season prepared me for that dissapointment.
How quickly some people are panicking. I could say the same thing about the fans on RealCavFans.
- Bargnani
- 4th Quarter
- Casey's rotation
Lowry being injured
fields being as shit as he has been
Bargs still crap
Definitely has to be Bargnani and soon will be Colangelo if he doesn't get rid of Bargnani. Just an aside i dont care if they pay Demar 15 million a year, its not my money and if they want to overpay to get and keep people then thats fine. (i understand the cap too but its not a hard cap so no big deal really, if we contend and there is a chance to really contend i think ownership will go over the cap to do it when neccessary. ALSO starting to get annoyed by caseys decision making but still not sure if its execution by the team or just horrible play calling.
Nothing to do with preseason expectations, but the biggest disappointment for me has easily been the team's collective execution down the stretch of close games. We're not talking about 1 or 2 possessions here or there....we're talking about basically EVERY game and for 5 minute stretches at a time.
I have no idea how to fix it (how do you inspire confidence in the fragile psyche of an entire team?), but the win last night surely doesn't inspire confidence that late game execution is improving.

I thin I'm immune to Bargani's under-performance. Doesn't really faze me anymore.
Fields all the way. Its hard to be the worst player on the Raptors.
Fields, bargnani and all the unnecessary hate on Casey by the fans.
Oh, hands down its Casey.
I loved what he did last year, but this year I am a little worried at what he has tried to do (im still no where near close to thinking of him being fired). Bargnani bugs me, but Lowry and Demar have eased that pain. Fields was playing hurt. Refs always suck, and injuries happen in regards to Lowry..
Refs, Bargs, injuries, Fields, schedule
In that order.

Bargnani
Casey insisting on sitting JV in the fourth quarter...even when he is having a great game. Why the @*&$ was he on the bench against the Pacers while Bargnani jogged between the 3-point lines?
