    Chauncey is putting his trademark/identity on this team.

    I hope this play does not delude Jody into thinking we should not trade our vets.

    Wasn't a fan of Billups hire but I got to admit they have these guys playing really good ball on both ends of the floor.

    Defense is refreshing to see. Not as many open 3’s by our opponents as of late. Teams also aren’t beating our guards and penetrating into the lane with such ease. Ball movement seems to be great. But then again Lillard isn’t playing.

    I’d be pissed if I was a Raptors fan watching our broadcast. Everyone’s laughing at Toronto.

    In the long run this won't happen against better teams, but microwise today is alright.

    Lots and lots of changes need to be made. Mediocrity is awful af. But enjoying this game is fine since for the most point this will be the outlier.

    So go team!

    I doubt Jody really puts much thought into stuff like that.

    So many things need to change with our team, mediocrity is not a goal, but today is fun.

    I mean it’s not like the Raptors are awful. They’re above .500
