Joshua Priemski

Josh's claim to fame is subbing into a pickup game for Jamaal Magloire in 2004. The game ended soon after. He lives in Scarborough — the best part of Toronto, honestly — and hates walks on the beach because the hot sand tends to burn the supple flesh off of his feet. Josh does enjoy a few things, though, including sandwiches, photography, and Toronto's burgeoning music scene. He's also managing editor at SB Nation's At The Hive.

Valanciunas complements Biyombo well

Raptors’ center tandem of Valanciunas and Biyombo is a luxury

Now that we’re nearly 70 games into the 2016 NBA season, we have a relatively clear idea of what exactly the Toronto Raptors are and what exactly they’re not. We know with some certainty, for example, that the Raptors are an explosive team on both ends of the floor, but that they’re not as consistent…
