@BlakeMurphyODC That’s kind of what I’m worried about. I’d like to see more minutes of RJ/Jak/IQ/Scottie before the deadline to know if this run has been just the team, a lack of center (no offense to porter who has been solid) or a bit of both.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC So we tanking is this just bad luck? Maybe there is a top 6 they want or plan to deal with the Spurs situation through trades at the deadline? Something is rotten in Denmark.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC Maybe it’s media under hype then on this upcoming class. I thought not conveying the pick this year was worst case scenario based on the quality of next years class.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC I’ll admit post injury I’m starting to not hate the cost of that Jak trade. I know the 3 wasn’t dropping tonight but the offensive flow also has felt off since he went down. This stint reminds me of 2022 pre trade. You don’t know what ya got till it’s gone I guess.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC I know it’s reserved for traditional season ending style injuries but could the raptors use the disabled player exemption on Koloko? Doesn’t seem like he is going to play and we need big help bad. Not that there are any options out there…

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC Oh right I keep forgetting that trade was 3 for 2 not 2 for 1.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC @TheRaptorsShow Why are the Raptors not using the disabled player exemption on Koloko? Seems like his return is unlikely at this point.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@SleeperHQ Feature request or bug fix. When setting up the draft board in a keeper league, when keepers are being assigned to any traded picks, it shows the other teams keepers not the pick owners. So you have to tell the owner to remove the keeper and manually select the player

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@steven_lebron @william_lou 18 missed free throws due to a child screaming is the Avengers Endgame of “finding new ways to lose” in 2023.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

It feels like he lost the team when times got tough. His track record is great when we have a super star or are playing above our heads. But it sure seems like when adversity hits, he lost the guys. Maybe public shaming isn’t the move.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@william_lou @BlakeMurphyODC Keep hearing stuff like:
- the team is broken
- not playing for each other
- too talented for this
- no hustle or defensive energy

Everyone keeps pinning it on the players. That all kinda sounds like Nurse issues. Why is he not in the hot seat more

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC Maybe I’ll commission my company to gamify the data from that shooting board for the players. Will have to see what head office thinks. Scottie can get some 2K packs for every 100 made shots. 🙃

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC @william_lou Fair enough. Didn’t mean “paper” paper. Just something more analogue. Didn’t realize there was audio cues for a while. Hard to connect the dots to the coaching staffs “shooting is teachable” to see such a horror show at 3 this season.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@BlakeMurphyODC @william_lou Interesting. But having it on paper later versus in your face on each shot I might find annoying. Especially when I’m slumping. Just grasping for straws/answers.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@OrenWeisfeld What is the % pre and post that massive shooting screen going into the training facility? Is that thing potentially messing with their natural shot rhythm?

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@william_lou We know the talent is there. At what point does this start to fall on Nick?

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@bigwos tell me you don’t watch the Raptors without telling me. Your “Scottie isn’t and won’t be a bucket” take was laughably bad and shows you didn’t actually watch him last season. I mean even just looking at last years isolation scoring stats could’ve saved you.

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

Whoa no @steven_lebron but I’ll take a @BlakeMurphyODC instead. #nostradamus

[Ryan Holowaty @noodle_ryan]

@KevinOConnorNBA When are we getting The Void team up we all have been waiting for? @william_lou and @steven_lebron bringing deep stats, hot bars, no ramen and the Scottie Barnes slander for days. #fireworks
