Do Not Sell My Personal Information

When i watched it seemed like Perkins was playing well. I see he put up 6 and 4 and only 2 fouls in only 14 minutes or so. Not too bad imo.

Yeah, he actually looked great today IMO. Just what I hoping to get out of him. Great screen, nice blocks, didn't take stupid shots.
 
I hate Harden as much as the next guy, but a lot of the FTs he got tonight were off of legit fouls. Barnes hacked him a few times.
 
It's seriously unbelievable that near everytime I watch a shot go up, I feel like it's going on. That's how potent we've become on offense. It's just magical to see the evolution and progression of this team.
 
Kyrie the beast has awoken, this team is unstoppable. Championship here we come!
 
I think coach Blatt don't let some starters play at the last quarter simply because it's already garbage time...
 
They have up 69 to Toronto in the second half. Their defense has been average at best for a handful of games now

And then promptly held a Phoenix team that scores 104.6 a night on 45.5% shooting to 79 points on 35.7% shooting and a Dallas team that scores 104.6 a night on 46.1% shooting to 94 points on 40.7% shooting...average my ass.
 
What happens when a recently 1-9 raptors team scores 69 points in a half and you average it out with holding Dallas to a little below their season average?

Hint: not better than average.

check the fucking stats, don't even have to look and I can guarantee you there's a zero percent chance were better than 10th recently. How is this a shocking and offensive opinion let alone a civil debate? In the last 11 we've had a defensive efficiency rating of worse than 100pts per 100 7 times

Has there ever been a MVP competition between 2 teammates? We might just have one come this time next year.

Pardon me if Lou Williams and Terrance Ross making everything they chucked up at the rim is going to make me think that 69 point 2nd half the Raptors had is on the Cavs defensive inefficiencies.

Also, in the last 10 games (excluding tonight's game since BRefs box scores aren't up yet, so last 11 and taking a guess on Orlando's advanced stats) we've held 5 of the 11 teams to below a 100 ORtg, 6 of 11 below their year average. Over the course of that stretch of games, we played the #3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 11, and 13th rated offenses. 6 out of 11 below their league average against the teams we have recently played is pretty good in my book.

Again, I'm not taking this smaller sample size against that quality of opponents over what I have seen from them since January 19th.

Phoenix's shots were going in. We've looked uncoordinated over the last few weeks on defense. Sure we had some good performances, but the playoffs is best of 7. Can't just come out with good effort one night and shit effort the next. We're allowing too many easy shots at the basket and 3 point line. It's a lot more noticeable when our offense isn't clicking.
