Well, it's the every-booboo-is-a-season-ending-injury phase of the tank. Out tonight: Scottie, Poeltl, Agbaji, and Brown. McDaniels and Carlton (who?) were questionable, but apparently they are not available.
Against a reasonably healthy Suns team (even minus Booker), this should be a massacre ... but eff' if I know with this team.

Raps look seriously size challenged in this one. No matchup with either Durant or Nurkic. I can see another 15 point deficit by halftime.

I can see another 15 point deficit by halftime. 14 points after one quarter. To-MAE-to, To-MAH-to. |

Grayson Allen, NBA superstar, with 26 points at the half. Not bad for a guy with a season-high of 32 points.

Allen shut down in the second half. Raptors close it to 4. What a team... Can they tank? Or will they pull out the improbable win?

So I was both right and wrong. They got down by 14 as expected but have made a better game of it in the third. Getting back to within 3.
Unfortunately I haven't been watching and missed my man Free Lib Getting into the game. Wonder how he did?
Also Boucher is on floor and making an impact. Not quite understanding why he has fallen out of the rotation? Yes he has issues but so do a lot of guys on this team. What Boucher does have is a high motor. Will miss him if he is dealt in the summer.

Nice comeback but never really a threat to win. 3 points was as close as they got and then fell back.
Quickley, Barrett and Trent all scored well but even that's not going to be enough all that often.

Just 1 game ahead of Memphis now for the 6th-worst record. Living the dream...

Will miss him if he is dealt in the summer. I don't know why they didn't trade him at the trade deadline. Like at all. If he's just going to be out of the rotation like this, then the team should have just moved on from him. His value in the offseason, as an expiring contract, will be considerably less with him falling out of the rotation like this. He's a solid player. A total wildcard, but he can help you win and turn the tide of games when he's on. |
