He’s good but I wouldn’t go that far. AR was undrafted in 2021, Vince Williams and Ryan Rollins at ⁴⁷⁄₄₄ in 2022, Jordan Walsh/Toumani at ³⁸⁄₅₂ in 2023, etc..

TyraTanks | Lakers

7 | 12 hours ago

AR was undrafted because he asked for a guaranteed contract (to try and choose where he went instead), not for talent purposes.

Anonemoney

Either way he was going to be a second rounder..

I think that was a game that was very important for both teams mental states, we got nearly the same records, both on losing streaks after hot starts, I dreaded losing it. This doesn’t suddenly solve our issues but it feels pretty great.

EarthWarping | NBA

Its a nice win in that the problems they have arent fixed (late game offense) however they did win so at least its not that bad

cmcc83

-1 | 13 hours ago

To be perfectly honest with you it’s partly just because the team is trying to force Quickley into the point guard role when he’s better off ball. It could be fixed by bringing him off the bench, but I’m not sure they want to do that because he’s making 30+ million a year. Darko doesn’t seem like the kind of coach who likes asking players making a lot of money to take on a reduced role.

I would like to see much fewer Ingram passes

Especially when he tries to pass out of a jumper or a fake, almost guaranteed turnover

bladebrigade

1 | 6 hours ago

that and somehow rectifying his questionable dribbling

that high dribble + pickup is so vulnerable to a mistake/poke leading to a turnover

its very frustrating to watch

NatsuAru | Raptors

15 | 13 hours ago

This was a really good coaching battle.

Spo doing live defensive changes was cool to watch.

Darko actually had no answers for Spo’s OOT Plays, so his main answer was “yeah foul that mfer” lol it reset the play

Last 2-3 minutes was pure chaos, though. Raptors tried to make BI iso everything at the cost of everything, and the Heat made them pay for it. They stopped doing that quick. Scottie came in clutch.

PresentMission8482 | Raptors

12 | 13 hours ago

Don’t check in on team subreddit game threads

I know Darko gets a lot of unnecessary shit from Raptors fans, but I saw a Heat fan say Spo was a fraud. First time I ever seen that 😭

DaBiggestHeatFan | Heat

2 | 11 hours ago

A lot of us heat fans are just fed up with how much he tries not to play Kel’El Ware a lot of minutes and make dumb excuses as to why he doesn’t while he proceeds to start Fontecchio instead. There was literally no reason Ware shouldn’t have been out there at the end of the game.

bladebrigade

yeah this raptors team is a horrible mismatch for size

outside of poeltl the next tallest players are all capped at 6’9”

no excuse for not abusing size on D + rebounding

Raptors are just so much better with a serviceable center. Jak isn’t the best player on the team but he might be more important to the team than anyone else outside of Scottie

schoolhater12 | Raptors

5 | 13 hours ago

absolutely, and the crazy thing is that Jak has been limited by his injuries even when he plays. Despite that he is still the 2nd most important raptor

Hot start, unsustainable shooting and our lineups of Bam + Ware haven’t been good at all

Our offense has been mid with Herro on for two years now. He can do that in spurts but isn’t a #1.

cl353 | Heat

5 | 13 hours ago

3 pt shooting has completely died since the early season and for some reason spo has decided to copy kerr and go even smaller when the shots arent falling

lost the game in the 4th when he decided he couldnt stand the big lineup making a couple mistakes and thought a 3 guard lineup wouldnt give up multiple offensive rebounds leading to wide open 3s. just disgusting

BayesBestFriend | Raptors

2 | 13 hours ago

I mean, to be fair our team is pretty ass from 3 so maybe he wasn’t sweating it

Bro if Quickley dribbles the air out the ball for 10 seconds just to throw a grenade one more time I’ll deport him personally

kpeds45 | Raptors

6 | 13 hours ago

I’m blaming Darko. He wants to run the clock and run BI isos end of game when we have a lead. So IQ has to dribble until BI gets to his spot, except everyone knows what’s happening so BI gets pushed around and can’t get there. Then with 7 to go IQ just has to pass it to Ingram, still not anywhere near his spot, for a tough turnaround last second shot.

Darko is calling that stupid play every fourth quarter. He needs to stop. It’s not putting anyone in position to succeed. We don’t have prime Harden.

knitwoolf | Raptors

3 | 10 hours ago

Thought they would work on this with the time off they had, but apparently Darko just gonna keep trying the most obvious play call 5x in a row every close game hoping for a different result. It literally has not worked since the game winner against Indy weeks ago and everyone knows it’s coming so it’s easy af to defend.

They get into it so late so they have no time to try anything else, so it’s basically an unforced turnover. I guess at least they waste the entire shot clock so it eats time when they have a lead, but they start spamming it with like 3 entire minutes to go so you can’t even really be happy about that.

1000littleaccidents | Raptors

1 | 12 hours ago

I swear Gradey Dick is the embodiment of +/- being a garbage stat. Just going by the eye test this seemed like one of his better games in a while but he’s still a -5. Meanwhile he’s looked terrible most of this year but last I checked was leading the bench in +/-.

TheWanderingFish | Raptors

3 | 9 hours ago

+/- for a single game is essentially meaningless. You need a large sample sizes of multiple different line-ups to make it useful in evaluating a player. Even then, drawing any real conclusions from it is questionable - it’s more like a sanity check than anything else. Like any stat it requires context and has limits in what it can and cannot tell you.
