Suffice to say this is the best DeMar has ever looked. The Raps can absolutely win the East and more if he can keep this level up. So aggressive right now and the midrange game is on fire.

I seem to be fixated on JV's development.

2 shots this game. 11 boards.

Demar is on fire right now no doubt. What im worried about is when he goes through a slump. As good as he looks now, it was horrible at the beginning of last years playoffs seeing him chuck up bricks. To be fair, both him and Lowry werent looking good.

I thought it was JVs coming out party last year until he had that injury. I'd like to see more of that.

Demar was playing with a terribly injured finger in last years playoffs .

There was a reason for the bricks

With DeMar it's about shot selection. What I'm really liking right now is we're not seeing a ton of fadeaways which has been his biggest issue. If he is taking shots from inside 18 feet going straight up, he should avoid those playoff struggles. But that's what we all have to like about DeMar, he just keeps getting better every year. I can dream he'll start hitting threes one day.

So great to see that in a league of three pointers, DeMar is doing something different and being effective on the offensive end. As far as 3 point shots go its weird as he doesn't seem to shoot the same shot as he does when he shoots midrange jump shots. Anyways if he continues to be efficient with his scoring, who cares.

Demar didn't score 30 and poof the Kings beat the Raptors. JV out. Lowry et. al. continue to shoot horribly. Virtually a one man team right now and with DD inevitably coming back down to more sustainable levels the rest of them better step up. They hit the road in 8 of the next 10 I think it is. Better get it together soon!

Steph Curry set an NBA-record with 13 3-pt FG Monday vs Pelicans.

It was only a matter of time before Steph broke that threes record tbh. Congrats to him.

Good win for the Raps on the road. DD again firing from everywhere. BUT better support from Lowry, Patterson and Carroll with a better looking stroke from 3 pt. territory. Beating Thunder in their own barn is a very positive start to road trip.

The James Harden move to PG was an excellent idea... so far. 24 points, 15 assists, and 12 rebounds tonight.

Games with 15 assists this season, Harden 5, rest of the NBA 1.

It's gonna be like last year for the Raps, they'll play to their opponents talent level most nights. Which makes them both very exciting to watch (lots of close games) and very frustrating to watch (like against Sacramento). DeRozan has been so good to start the year it's kind of hidden the fact Lowry has been kinda mediocre.

I've #### on Noguera a lot and questioned why they haven't moved on from him, but damn he looks good since coming back from injury this year.

DeRozan. It's so weird, after years of thinking "Casey's gotta take Demar out, he's killing us!" in the fourth quarter, to thinking "Casey's gotta get DeRozan back in right away, we need him!" And then he comes in and sure enough knocks down every shot he takes and puts the game out of reach.

This is a very deep team all of a sudden, outside PF. Gonna be interesting to see how Masai handles the roster. At some point I gotta think JV will be in play for a trade since he gets the highest return and makes the most sense cap wise (other than Carroll).
