Well... Since Toronto can't use 3 bigs on Gentry dumbass.
*Cue Pelicans mini-comeback before choking away small lead in the 4th*
It was always more likely than not that Jrue would regress (egress?) to the mean
Mmm love that longboi
Jrue just deciding that he's tired of this and starting to take over, just as the half ends.
If he comes out with fire under him in the third, we might be able to get this to 10 or so heading into the fourth.
Basketball.
This team has no offence or defense.
They are worse than last season when AD was sitting out.
The only reason they score on anything is off fast breaks.
This offense is not sustainable long term.
My men's basketball run more offense in the half court then this team does.
Pathetic.
Oh yeah for sure. I've been saying for the past several games that people just need to have a little patience with Jrue. Is it frustrating that he takes a handful of games to ''get back into it'' every year? Yes, it is. But it's also not a surprise at this point, and people getting themselves into a hissy fit because he's had a rough October is frankly just silly.
This Pelicans vs Raptors game is an embarrassment to the USA.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Cannot give up 45 points in a quarter. Toronto was on fire but we are still not communicating on defense. They literally teach this in high school. Our players are tripping.
The fact that the team has being doing so poorly has amplified the criticism on him, even though he's the only one on the team playing the slightest bit of defense (Lonzo has been decent in spurts)
Ball is pathetic
The problem is that pretty much everyone has been decent in spurts, but nobody has really been consistently good, and of course, team-defense is a thing that only a handful of our guys seem to understand conceptually.
LaTimid Ball is how I see it
Lakers might actually have won this trade
Part of Holiday's problem is Ball. Holiday is a two who's forced to play the one because Ball is a one who thinks he's a two.

If only we got like five picks in this draft that we've yet to even see...
There were three possessions in a row where Toronto has 3 wide open 3 point shooters. We need to stop crashing into the paint with the ballhandler and stop overhelping. At the end of the half we did a slightly better job, but we’ve dug our selves a huge deficit. Same old same ol
Hope Cleveland falls outside of the top then, then package their pick and our pick this year together to move up in the draft and take Tyrese Maxey. Then, next year, we trade everything we can to try and secure a top 3 pick and draft Cade Cunningham in 2021.
Will it cost us all the Lakers assets? Yes. Will it be worth it? Also yes, probably.

It can't just be Jrue moving and Redick moving off ball. Way too much standing around.
That was Nurse adjustment . He sat 3 bigs on Gentry and took away the paint.
WAIT, HOLD THE PHONE
WE PLAYED A COMPETENT DEFENSIVE POSSESSION.
I’ll never be able to hold my head up high next time I am visiting Canada, not after this beating.
I hope that the DeMarcus was a bade trade threads will stop also. You trade for the superstar talent 10/10 times
Lonzo doesn't have a first step.
Looking at those skinny legs. I ain't surprised

Something I find so weird about Ball...is he doesn't seem to be a plus ball handler. He just looks awkward when he isn't passing it. Like the way he finishes near the basket.
Lol at people going under the screen on VanVleet.
That makes no sense.
