GT Wizards @ Raptors - 7 PM ET

[JimiCliff]

Thats what I thought too. I dont know why the euro team would stipulate that he cant play in the 4th quarter. That makes little sense too me.

I'm just trying to find a reason. Any reason.

[themasao]

Honestly tho, Rudy's shots have all been a half inch from dropping. Like I've seen at least 4 or 5 pop in and out.

Casey has no faith in rookies?

The fact that so many people believe you says something about how seriously Casey has him on lock-down.

"Sorry Jonas, you get too many monster dunks against the Wizards. We're gonna have to sit you down."

-Dwane Casey

[themasao]

Lowry has no idea how to play point.

He's having a bad game. He's not a bad point. There's a difference.

Check his stats from last game, he's not an all-star on that basis alone either.

Welcome to the 'jump-the-gun republic'.

A good point plays in control, he all out reckless. Look at the offence he passes the ball halfway between half court and the three point line. Most of the players are left in isolations

[YYZ]

And I wasnt making this observation based on this game solely

[JimiCliff]

Oh Fake Joey Crawford, that's a terrrrrible call

[mike, prague]

Did the refs pay Casey or Casey the refs to loose the game for the Raps?

The Iso's are a product of bad coaching/management. As for playing all out and reckless, I disagree. Not all PG's have to be Calderon. Tony Parker plays all out and reckless and it works for him.

Could have really used Jonas in the 4th...

Parker plays with himself, Lowry needs to drive and kick more often.

[white men can't jump]

Between TOs and all the open shots they've missed...the Raptors played themselves right out of this game. Fuck. The Wizards have not played that well....Fuck!!! *facepalm*....

[YYZ]

Or go baseline so he can see the floor.

What difference would he of made?

[Matt52]

This game feels just like the 20 point blown lead games vs. Milwaukee and Philly.

At the time, closing in on 8th just like now.

Raps in desperate need for a win and they drop a turd.

What happens when you can't make a shot? Lots of available rebounds. Was playing small working? No, because it only works if shots are dropping. I think Casey needs to show more trust in JV. It's not like he has to run plays for him, but his size and energy always seem to have an impact.
