Raptors at Pelicans 11/15/17

Remember when we stopped turning the ball over? Me neither. Cmon guys

Diallo plays defense like a trash can

Guess who's back

DeMarcus "Turnover" Cousins

These. freaking. turnovers.

These freaking turnovers.

Smh DeMarcus IQ is horrible

moore bad turnover then leaves his defender for open 3 zzz

Glad rondo is coming back in, just bring things together

I wonder if teams have started to figure this system out? A huge number of the non-careless turnovers in the last week or two seem to have come with opposing teams jumping routes

Happy to be eating huge amounts of crow about Rondo so far.

Cunningham trying to guard DeRozan is comical

edit: Cunningham trying to guard ANYONE is comical

Rondo and AD come back in: immediately we get some stops, score some buckets. Good.

Gentry wants AD and Boogie to be playing more like 29 minutes a game... Okay lol

Holiday is just going off.

Realllly bad foul by Boogie there

Blows my mind how no big we have can guard Jonas in 2017

Rooooooondoooooo with the bounce to AD.

Good. 4 minutes without our 2 best players. Real good

Now that was a Rondo pass right there.

Are we fouling Jonas on purpose? It's not Shaq. He can make them

as I said about the refs playing a role

This might be the 1st time all season thst AD or Cousins isn't in the game.

As long as Rondo is orchestrating, I feel like it's not the end of the world.

Jonas MVP sleeper I guess

and here is where the absolute need for a 3rd center comes into play. Diallo is a twerp. Not a strong one either.

Apparently Jonas is as big of a superstar as LeBron with all of these touch fouls we are on a our home court correct??

Rondo is orchestrating plays before the ball even comes in. That's special

This is an absolute joke the Jonas gets these calls in the paint but our scrubs Davis and Cousins don't.
On our home court also.
The only place in the NBA where it isn't an advantage.

Rondo elevating everbodys play but Jrue really benefiting man nice to see.

see? another jumped route

I'll take another ugly W

I'm going to be super frustrated if they don't let Rondo play the 2nd half

Diallo is playing awesome!!!

Cunningham 20 feet off Ibaka wtf

No one within 20 ft of Lowry

Diallo is kinda showing he deserves more time

Seems like Rondo only has 1 flaw: end of quarters. They better let him play the 2nd half though

Way too many 3s

Dude wtf is up with every team that plays us going off from 3pt.

I know right? I mean, part of it is bad perimeter defense but at the end of the day there's something weird going on when average shooters are going nuclear from 30 feet

Down by 1 with both David and Cousins off in the last 5 minutes to end the half.
I'll take it.

what is with Diallo and those long pauses when guys try to feed him assists?

Oh...it loooooks liiike soooomebooody gaaave me the baaallll

hmm...I...wonder hmm... whaaat I shouuuuld hmm... doooo with it?

hmm...

hmm...

hmmm...

Well they said 14-16 min for Rondo tonight. He's at 14 now. Gonna be interesting to see what happens in the 2nd half, because you know Rondo is going to want to play normal minutes this half

Toronto on pace for 38s in the game on at 47% hit rate.

Ibaka is of course shooting 100% from 3 as well.

I hate how hot other teams get from 3 against us. I wish we'd get a game like that.

I hate that

The Raptors were 12-of-16 from the field in the 2nd quarter.

Diallo is a young guy getting serious time and opportunities for the second time in his career. He will only get better and I like what I've seen.
