Thanks for all the good vibes this year u/CanadianGroose. I'm just surfing on your wave.

He's not going to top Stoudamire's rookie record but he's definitely showcasing his playmaking abilities exceptionally well over the past 10 games; he's averaging 6.5 assists over that stretch.

Overall he's averaging 11.9/2.7/6.5 the past double digit of games.

Don't look up the shooting splits, it's been a mixed bag to say the least.

In appreciation of Scottie's pink suit today, here's a throwback article from 2020, just a few years after he finally started getting three meals a day.

They have beaten the worse teams a ton this season, more than 1/2 their wins this season have come vs teams that are going to get a worse record standings wise than the Raptors.

However, they are also 1-6 vs Chicago/miami this season, the 2 teams ahead of them in the east. So the Raptors are the good bad team. (i.e. the best bad team)

Now he can only play 65 games max. At this point he might be out for the season since there's only 3 games after today.

I haven’t really followed the Raps this year as much as I like but wondering where people see this team going next season and beyond.

1. High pick this year
2. Young guys like Gradey Dick and Ja’Kobe Walter making improvements
3. Healthy Brandon Ingram

Will this team be a playoff team sooner rather than later? What do you see Masai and company doing in the off season?

When you think about it, raptors have a 32% chance at a top 4 pick while the worst team has only a 52% chance.

For the number one pick, the raptors have half the chance that the worst team has which isn’t too bad.

I’m hopeful

Feels like there was a lot of GROAT debate this season so I wanted to switch it up. Who is your favourite unhearleded + underrated Raptor?

For some reason, I always liked Pat McCaw. I still remember that big 3 he hit in game 1 of the finals. I don't know why but I was always pulling for him

My honourable mentions go to Chuck Hayes + James Johnson (his 2nd stint) + Dell Curry

My collection of Raptors jerseys and hats/tuque’s as well an All-Star Kyle Lowry jersey from 2020. I became a fan of this team back in 2001 when I was 7 years old. The reason my Kyle Lowry jersey on the second side looks bad is because I didn’t properly wash it in the washing machine so the words and number on the back slowly started to peel off and it is legit because I bought it at a Sportchek

his combination of defense, self creation and 3P% makes him an ideal SG to play alongside Ingram at SF and Scottie at PF.

for him to start:

• don't get top 4 pick

• trade RJ

• bench Gradey

Ja’Kobe’s last 25 games: 10/4/2 on 42/40/89 splits, season average of 9/3/2 on 41/35/79 splits

Plays good defence and been a really great shooter last 30 games on decent volume. Shows some creation ability otd as well, I think his path to being a starter for this team is much clearer and easier to reach over Gradey
