Funny to check out Raptors fans and see them after a few losses firing everybody and calling all the trades dumb and draft picks dumb etc.

To me I'm still seeing the same team --- they hustle and are entertaining with lousy defense and sad rebounding. Those were the two things though you had to figure would be weak.

The fans need to step back and just be happy that they have a fun team to watch who will get nothing but better.

The team needs to make shots and at least try and rebound by committee.

As for defense the team has set themselves up as Phoenix North and hey you gotta outscore the other team to win with that style so the offense needs to make shots. They continue to have open looks but guys like Mo Pete just choking too much IMO.
