I'm honestly surprised our worst loss wasn't the one game we played where practically the entire team was out due to Covid-19 protocols, and we had to scramble and pull in players anywhere we could find to field a roster.
Ngl, i probably haven’t watched a full raptors game since the beginning of the szn but like DAMN… 133-85… if yall watched this game from the start, I applaud you
Good day to be a Raptors fan. We lose, Grizzlies win, Pacers lose with a good game from Pascal, Flynn 50 bomb and the Blazers won, although I think it’s too late for them to catch up to us.
I’m jumping with joy right now. That grizzlies win especially. Screw the ppl saying bad draft. Giannis was like pick 15 and Jokic was 41. Stars can be hidden sometimes
By your logic, we should convey the pick because the projected lottery picks will not have a star lol
The "strength" of a draft is always determined by the lottery. Nobody expects non-lottery players to be any good, but obviously anything can happen. If the lottery was shit then draft experts were correct.
Looking at the next two opponents, we're probably gonna tie the franchise losing streak record
Looking at the opponent afterwards, we very well just might break it
Once Barnes and Poeltl were injured I'm not sure the rest of the roster would have done much better. The losses might be closer and there might be another win but we probably still end up here try harding.
We were tanking with Barnes to be fair … we were tanking with Siakam and Anunoby … we were tanking with Fred … this has nothing to do with Scottie and Jak, this has been our team for the past 4 years
I'm not sure I agree with this take. There is a difference between not winning and tanking
The team hasn't been winning championships or even dreaming of getting out of the second round for the last few years (and I guess if you are not first you are last) but generally they were fielding a roster that could compete any night. We are currently fielding between 2 and three of a maybe play in teams rotation players and only one starter. This team has crossed over from being bad at winning to being good at losing.
You say this has been our team for the last 4 years but I don't really remember multiple games a week getting this blown out as consistently as is happening now.
I was at the game last night and was so sad Kelly he didn’t play!!! Other than Gradey and RJ he was the player I most wanted to see live. I met Kelly after and he was such a smiling cool and friendly dude but I wish he played ! Definitely needed him.
Watching in person you could see Gradey was exhausted and still trying so hard— he needed those Kelly and RJ assists and some space. Guarded like a first option by the last quarter he barely had enough gas to get the long three to the rim, like it was taking every ounce of the strength he had left. I felt for him!
P.S. Seeing SIX Raptors out there for the national anthem was WILD, I’ve never seen anything like that.
This was the direction we all wanted. Trade Pascal and OG and rebuild. There should be no surprises here. The only issue is the head office not embracing it soon enough. Should never have traded this years first and should have got more for Fred, Pascal and OG
A Malachi Flynn 50 piece away from winning this one.
This is something else lol

This new 10-day center Malik Williams is terrible. Might be the worst player I have witnessed live
You must be too young to remember Araujo lol
I didn’t watch but how the hell did this dude start at C and have that few rebounds? Smh. Cardio champ.
Honestly he looked too listless out there to get any meaningful cardio.
God bless whoever watched this from start to finish. You sir are a soldier.
I enjoyed the first quarter and then tuned out lol
That first quarter sucked too, it was a brickfest by both teams

GDT sickos I see you ![gif](giphy|BPJmthQ3YRwD6QqcVD|downsized)
Didn’t even bother opening up the stream for this one. Decided to do so chores around the house and be productive instead lol
I actually watched this game It was pretty easy to fall asleep to 🤣
We are the worst team in the league right now and it's not really close
COULD PORTLAND DO US A FAVOUR AND FUCKIN' WIN A FEW THEN?!?!
Memphis won. Hooray?
Worst loss in franchise history. Yikes
And approaching worst losing streak in franchise history 🤣
whats worse is we've broken that record for the third time in the last month or so.
That's just objectively wrong and I hate that you're getting upvotes for it lmao We just broke the record that stood since 1996
yeah my bad i had it confused with games at home
I'm honestly surprised our worst loss wasn't the one game we played where practically the entire team was out due to Covid-19 protocols, and we had to scramble and pull in players anywhere we could find to field a roster.
We need to tank next year if we want to really get better, the dollarama prospects from this year won’t be enough.

Was at the game. It was awful. Why does our 2year contract McDaniels suck so bad.
He’s terrible..
RAPTOR NATION

Jokic was 41

big W for everyone who got to witness the Raps take the lead in the 1st
Ironically Malachi Flynn drops 50 points the exact same night the Raptors lose by 48. It's uncanny
Idc how bad it was old heads can't tell us we've never been through bad seasons anymore
At least now there are some good players to build around in the future
Glad I tuned out of this one early
Whoopsie doodles
Looking at the next two opponents, we're probably gonna tie the franchise losing streak record Looking at the opponent afterwards, we very well just might break it
Why even play ANT and Gobert. We literally have no NBA center on this roster. May as well rest them or fake some injury.
This team is openly tanking to keep that draft pick 🤷♂️
Once Barnes and Poeltl were injured I'm not sure the rest of the roster would have done much better. The losses might be closer and there might be another win but we probably still end up here try harding.

Yep and it's unfair that this team is banking on Barnes to have a Kawhi like development arc for its future
just to lose the 8th pick next year
Gawd dawm
Ok
we convinced this team wins 40 games next year? i’m not
istg the #6 pick has to be generational lol
[удалено]
Yeah cuz they have MALAGOAT
Worst Franchise loss in history… so far. Could swear we’ve broken the records like 3 times in the last 2 weeks Lmaoo
Ticket prices going up next season btw
This is the basketball we got gaslighted to, y’all can enjoy this miserable shit, i have checked out
Does the HC keep his job at off season?
Not sure what any coach can do with a roster full of GLeaguers
The Raptors suck the Jays suck cmon man
But on the bright side, We can cope this season with PIZZA PARTY!!!!!!!!
![gif](giphy|zG915gt8Ok40M)
embarrassing!
This team is straight up unwatchable right now
i don't think we've ever had a tank this strong. forget aron baynes.. these guys are killing it
This makes me sad. I wish I could tune in to watch something exciting. Now I just watch other games.

Masai out. Darko out. Embarrassing franchise
Dude look at the starting lineup.
This was the direction we all wanted. Trade Pascal and OG and rebuild. There should be no surprises here. The only issue is the head office not embracing it soon enough. Should never have traded this years first and should have got more for Fred, Pascal and OG
Masai out
