Detroit had his number tonight and completely stifled his offence. He could not get an open shot to save his life and was often passing the ball away because of double teams.

He did make a couple of nice contested fade away jumpers though.

what part of my comment said that they are on the same level. Also the difference in defense is astronomical. Scottie is arguably the DPOY and cade is not. Scottie doesn’t even have a center backing him, he is the poa defender, he is the help defender, he is the rim protector. It’s just him and CMB running around

Scottie is a better defender, but saying “much better” is a stretch. I don’t think people realize how good of a defender Cade actually is.

Cade is a notch above for sure but on a pistons team Barnes offensive numbers would look almost as good as cade.

Here4Us | Pistons

9 | 5 hours ago

This is just not true lol. Scottie is an all-world defender but not close to Cade offensively. That statement doesn’t even make sense as Cade was putting up better offensive numbers than Scottie even during the Weaver terrorist years

schoolhater12 | Raptors

6 | 5 hours ago

nah, he is not the same level offensively. He is a great playmaker but still a notch below. He is also a non shooter so that means he needs shooters

that he’s a top 5 player.

GroupTop4810

13 | 4 hours ago

He’s a + defender, one of the best playmakers in the entire nba, and a great scorer.

He needs a little work on his 3 ball, if he can get it up by 3% he’s a top 3 player in the league. That’s his only weakness

Queasy_Salad7444

-10 | 4 hours ago

no like let just stop lol. he’s a great player but he’s too inefficient to be a top 5 player. i don’t even think he’s top 7.

Alkibiadeezs_Levine | Pistons

GroupTop4810

8 | 4 hours ago

He’s not inefficient outside of his 3 ball.

His assist to turnover ratio is even among the best for people who control the ball as much as he does

Sorry dude, there simply arent many players that are as good at scoring, playmaker, AND defense as he is.

Pistons and Raptors got good defense but Pistons have the better defense. Pistons are also great at offense and that’s where Raptors unfortunately are sub par. Hoping for a better game in the future

mc_foucault | Pistons

40 | 5 hours ago

I’d kill for Scottie barnes on my team. Dude is the only non Thompson I have seen cause so many turnovers and still hits shots with guys in his face like his name was Jaylen.

Derpy_Mc_Burpy | Raptors

20 | 5 hours ago

But between Cade, and Barnes, Cade was the better choice. I love scottie, his skills and his shenanigans but Cade is the better rounded player. If our team overall was better at shooting maybe scottie would be better too. Gotta see how the raptors develop in the coming years. Pistons were in the same spot as us last year so you never know

mc_foucault | Pistons

13 | 5 hours ago

Absolutely. I was just impressed by this game. If pistons shoot closer to our normal 3 pt percentage the game is much closer than it ended up.

Derpy_Mc_Burpy | Raptors

You guys pulled on us what we pulled on GSW back in january lol. Just started dumping straight 3 bombs on repeat.

TheNoelle808 | Raptors

I definitely agree, but Cade was basically the consensus #1 pick.

There were a lot of people who doubted Scottie at #4 but I feel he’s proved them wrong.

Derpy_Mc_Burpy | Raptors

3 | 4 hours ago

100%. Wouldn’t trade scottie for anyone else but cade. Love the energy he brings to the team. Too bad the rest of the team can’t match it

Cade_02 | Pistons

Pistons are legit. Cade is starting to look unstoppable

d11dd11d | Pistons

32 | 5 hours ago

Respect to the Raptors and their fans. We tend to play a bit better against teams that aren’t too keen on the 3pt shot, since we kinda suck at guarding the 3pt line. We actually shot well from 3 today which is a welcomed surprise.

Scottie is such a stud.

Bball Paul showed up huge like he always does, which really helped. Tolu not quite there yet but he just needed to survive between Paul minutes

Pistons look like they did during their 13-game win streak. Constantly down rotation players and absolutely locked-in.

Scottie Barnes might be my DPOY tho. Had some tough blocks. One from a standing jump. Didn’t know he was like that and this is my third Raptors game I’ve watched this season.

I didn’t watch, but do the raptors have an issue of too many guys who can all get their own shot (RJ, Ingram, Quickley etc) but struggle to create good looks for each other?

Milpooool | Tampa Bay Raptors

3 | 2 hours ago

No, Raptors are consistently top of the league in assists and fast break points this year. It’s how they generate offense. The problem is they are bottom of the league in 3pt%, near bottom in rebounding, near bottom in FTA. Nothing on offense comes easy for them. Very occasionally Quickley will get hot from 3 but that is basically the only easy offense they generate and it is rare.

SaddiqBae | Pistons

1 | 2 hours ago

To be honest though, not entirely different from us. Very transition reliant and poor at shooting threes. Rebounding is probably the big difference I would imagine, and paint offense in general.

BayesBestFriend | Raptors

No, it’s pretty communist basketball we just have no shooting or bigs

SaddiqBae | Pistons

It seems to be working better than you’d think though, although it also does kinda feel like you miss a superstar kind of player. Ingram and RJ can get buckets, but not quite at that level

I hadn’t seen Scottie play much this year, so I didn’t understand the Scottie for DPOY campaigns. I definitely understand them now.

Raptors broadcast was excellent. Announcers were professional and even-handed. And the production seemed to play more Pistons highlights than Raptors highlights.
