1. @benrogers darko is not a tactician. dont hold your breath on unexpected wins.

2. Scottie Buns 9 points lmao. $270m for that? He's supposed to be the leader and the #1 option.. He looks like he didn't even want to be out there.

3. Make Jamal Shead the backup pg, and Davion 3rd string, if davions good enough he’ll earn it back, if not it confirms what we all already knew

4. @benrogers i mean scottie barnes cant iso marvin bagley, so expecting him to iso mobley or allen was a bridge too far. darko wants the team to play good defence and yet raptors give up 105 pts in 3 quarters.

5. i dont care if we lose but not in this way, its total embarrassment. Scottie should take a hard look and watch how he performed in this game. His drive to basket got exposed, no dribble skills to get past his man to the basket and is so slow that its so predictable that he gets blocked, like its almost a 3 second violation each time he goes to the basket. Jakob is mentally out of scotia bank. IQ's ability to finish a fastbreak is also questionable in this game. If Jakobi is a bust, then this team is doomed.

6. Notes from todays game, Shead is here to stay, Gradey is here to stay, waive Bruno for a taller defensive big, we also need Kelly back soon, Quickley is not a allstar guard is a glofied starter, Barnes might not be him😰

7. This is my issue this rebuild shouldve started 2 years ago and just now were in year 1 its frustrating cause masai has wasted time and cost us assets

8. Barnes is a complete crap*darko voice

9. Biggest margin loss in raptors history for a season opener and your max contract player is missing will be a concern for this season..

10. Not sure what people expected. We're missing 3 core guys and we have no proper big man depth. They got two giants in the cavs starting 5. Taking the positive outlook in our rebuild year and Gradey/Shead looked great.

11. Getting smacked in the face hopefully wakes up the team for next game. Got to play hard for 48

12. I’ve said it before. Scottie Barnes is not a franchise player, guy was one of the worst players on the court. He looked absolutely horrible compared to mobley!

13. The reactions from this game make me laugh 😆 we are game 1 of a rebuild guys

14. Told y’all yak is mid..

15. The fact that gradey and boucher look like real nba players is awesome start

16. Mogbo is a bust, Barnes needs to show he’s worth the money. Looks like we’re tanking this year.

17. Hopium is a helluva drug my guy

18. Thank you for not overreacting

19. I see brown,ogbaji, olynyk, and Mitchell being moved by the deadline this szn

20. i dont know many more jakob minutes i can take

21. I like your optimism. Thats what we fans need right now

22. This is OK.
    We are developing skills and chemistry.
    We don't want win (I hope)
    I like what I see from boucher!
    I hope they keep building him up.. get his stats up so we can trade him for another good 1st next year!

23. Our lineup next game should be IQ, Dick, Barnes, Boucher and Poetle.

24. Is the Season done yet, Tank Nation, let's go .
    Cooper Flag or Ace Bailey..
    Get as many first rd picks for Poeltl, Brown, RJ Barrett..
    2nd rd picks Boucher, Olynuk, Agbaji, Mitchell, clear cap space. Rebuild.

25. Couldn’t agree more. Overall, hope for the future is way more fun than winning games you should win on route to a 2nd round exit.

26. scottie had a miserable game. that won't happen very often. when RJ is playing he would almost certainly have shored things up and picked up the slack imo. shaed is a baller, but he's young and inexperienced. i doubt many people thought the raps would win this game. the cavs are big, strong, deep, talented team with a good mix of experience and youth. mobile looks awesome. i have them neck and neck with the celtics. the game was a big disappointment, but there were some positives. it's a long season. i hate these injuries more than anything else bc these guys need to play together in order to develop, and their core starters have to carry most of the load. now we're missing two of those guys. i don't see them winning any games with IQ and RJ out.

    they played a strong first quarter against a top team in the league. their talent and potential is apparent. i'm hating the injuries though.

    good video, Ben.

27. We will see if we ever get healthy if we have any depth? Gradey is good on offense side but breaks our defense with allowing penetration. We have a brutal early schedule and then we will “want” to lose late when schedule gets softer.
    Kenny A was a very good coach for Nets and who we should have brought in vs Darko.
    Our FO is lazy and really only cares on draft and small trades. Yes I know KLaw was a great Home run and we got a chip. That looks more like one hit wonder vs a sustainable assets management style to run organization. Enjoy!

28. We were out-scored 39-6 at center position and Ujiri is still content with Poeltl. And Darko couldn't coach his team to stop their 2 big tandem.

29. Get rid of the coach and poetl

30. This is a rebuild lol fans are expecting Raptors to beat playoff teams and Scottie to drop 30 a game, its his first time leading a team without Pascal,OG and Fred

31. Raps got fkn bodied. Gonna be a loooooong season.

32. Let go cooper flagg 😂🎉

33. Can yall stop overreacting about Scottie plz? It was one fucking game. Cavs were a terrible matchup for him because we literally have no spacing. He will bounce back I promise. He knows he played like shit. He’s gonna be fine

34. Signing Bruno Fernando should tell you everything you need to know about this team #Tankcommander

35. why is it that your subscription rate is so low? what you talk about is on point is it presentation?

36. Shead dog / gradey/boucher looked good tonight..we just need more reps

37. Raps need more size

38. Worst thing they did was gut the team for Scottie
