    Clean injury report for us as of now for today’s game. Even Jett and the two ways are listed as available

    Oh and the whole team isn’t shooting too well. 45% overall, 35% from 3.

    Turnovers for one. Markelle just can’t shoot at all at this point.

    To say this is an ugly game is more than an understatement.

    So far that’s a plus. Raptors barely have an NBA roster; I’ve never heard of about half of them. Our poor 3 point shooting and careless turnovers have been the story so far. Hopefully it will change soon.

    If they keep being tied after like the fifth overtime, is there a rule where they both lose?

    And even Cole Anthony. While I completely agree with All Eyes that our stars have reasons why they might not have confidence in other players on the floor with them, I think it’s something they need to overcome. If they never even look at the open guy in the corner, it’s not only demoralizing for those players being ignored, but again puts us into a 3 or 4 vs five situation on offense, which is unfavorable. I’d like to see our best players try to make these other guys better while they’re out there. If it doesn’t work, then get rid of those players and find someone else who can better compliment our best players.

    I might disagree with you on this a little bit. No matter who you are, driving one versus three against good NBA defenders is going to fail most of the time. Both the guys you mentioned are excellent passers, and when they get double or triple teamed they pass the ball to an open teammate. That gets to the other point that’s being made here about spacing. Those other teammates are good enough to make you pay if you double or triple team one guy, leaving them with an open shot, and that’s a difference from us. Also, our stars are not doing enough to get the other players on the floor involved, as is also being mentioned above. Houstan, for example, while standing in the corner was often open and no one even looked at him. Makes it easier on the defense if they can forget about a player or two and just help guard the others.

    All I can say is amen.

    Agree with everything, except to quibble with your last sentence. Wendell Carter was 5 for 13 shooting, including zero for five from three-point range. So while he may have stood out in some areas, I would not call his game “awesome” overall.

    My son and I had a good time despite the result. Atmosphere of going to a major league event is always special.

    What we need is better teamwork, better spacing, and more threats on the floor. Paulo, Franz, Wendell and Cole took about 75% of our shots tonight and none of them were shooting well.

    Ingles actually really hurt us in the fourth, two bad passes

    Can’t have Mo in there without Isaac. Like a layup line for Indiana. Zero interior defense.

    He’s mostly standing in the corner on whatever side of the court is farthest away from the action.
