Best part of last night's game is Booker opening himself up to being called the softest player in the league

Nobody should be surprised about Fred. I told you guys this was coming years ago!

It’s hard to believe how bad the Raptors depth has been this season. There is not a single player beyond the starting five guys who looks like they are worth keeping. Games like these with two of the top five guys out are almost un-winnable.

Raps still in this, despite no bench except Champagnie.

Giannis picking up silly fouls. You love to see that.

That's a big win against the Bucks after that embarrassing loss to the Pistons.

Love Siakam shutting Portis up, huge game by him and the big 3.

Good to see I have no idea what I am talking about. Nice win tonight and some important contributions from the depth guys.

Nah man. You don't need to take that back. It is a very, very valid point. They won in spite of the bench.

Also, best part of that game was Portis getting in Siakam’s face and then Siakam dominating the rest of the game. What a way to step up.

I think you're still right... anyone can have a big game off the bench here and there, Raptors need some actual consistency. But Boucher has been starting to develop some over the last few weeks (at least in all respects except his shot).

Really impressive win though, especially given all the other context of the game (3 key injuries, second night of a b2b, battling foul trouble all night, playing against a Bucks team trying hard to avoid a season sweep...).

Watched the fourth quarter of a game for the first time in a long time. The entire quarter, the Raptors were constantly refusing to take the high percentage two point shot in order to throw it out for a three. Extremely irritating to watch.

Big mistake by Scottie B giving Doncic that last 3 in the game.

Nurse sending a message to the bench (and maybe front office?) by running a 7-man rotation. I thought it was a decently played game all things considered.

Juuuust about blew it, but solid win in the end. Still need to get a lot more from the bench, can't be counting on all five starters in double figures every game.

Just one point from Fred away from all five starters scoring over 20. They are going to ride these guys into the ground, so they'll be gassed even if they do make the playoffs. Gotta get a depth piece or two at the deadline.
