oh yeah! now I know what has been bugging me about the raptors all along...AGE!

the friggin raptors are an aging to old team and this is what aging to old teams do..lose when they shud win. that is why the were good up to the All Star break then went steadily downhill from then on. they are OLD...OLD tuh rarse.

deh simply ran out of energy by the all star break...which Nick Nurse was trying to conserve all season long

Lowery 33
Gasol 33
Green 31
Ibaka 29
Lin 30 but he is not even suited up
Meeks 31

Moreland and Leonard are 27

This is another example of how experts and analysts are constant arseholes! they have been constantly picking the Raptors to go all they way, to beat Philly... and they simply physically cant do that. that is why Philly is beating them so badly. they cant play no more with the youth.

they had the one shot the first game, they pulled that off like an old class horse coming off a lay off. that is the only time that old horse can win..fresh off the lay off.

from the very next race he is too tired to win..too old. he will pull off some places and show positions. that is what the owners really want for they will add to his big earlier stash with that, until they pull him out permanently and send him to stud... or to brood in the case of a filly.

they will also cash a few big place and show bets on the horse in the meantime. but his winning days would be over..like this raptor team. they will get 4 straight from filly and move on into retirement. Leonard will leave and for that I will be seriously happy.

and if deh fiyah Masai Ujirir I would not say a word..save he is as big an arsehole as any GM fired so far this season. I love my people of color but I cant support a man in a job if he cant do the job as well he might. that helps no one in the end


the only youth player of class Toronto has is Siakam. Van Vleet has all but disappeared in this series
Anunoby is injured.
Powell helps off the bench but the bench, apart from he and Ibaka is useless...no good at all. how in the hell did Masai trade away the good bench the Raptors had for these guys who cant help the Raptors.

who the fuck are Meeks, Moreland, Macaw and Miller?

off the bench these 4 last night played a collective total of 13 minutes, and had altogether a total of 5 points and 3 assists. Toronto had a great bench before Masai got to the trading. he got rid of the good Bench and brought in guys who cant play that well

that is what I wasn't doing..examining all that Masai had done. I was focused only on the big trades of DeRozan and Valencunis. but he had done a lot worse with the bench. then to cover his tracks he played to the Chinese community bringing in Jeremy Lin.... who cant play NBA basketball any more at 30 years of age

What Toronto has is a really lousy basketball team, now way too old to beat the better, younger coming teams. I see Lowery struggling and I was pissed at him. but now I realize it is because he is 33 years of age just about time to retire for him.

that is what we have. we never had a snowballs chance in hell at the NBA championship with this team this year.

'they' made all kinds of moves to hide the reality but the team is no dam good. that is why we were so awful after the all star break. they had run out of gas. and Leonard playing every other game prolly thought he would have to kerry this team in the playoffs so he sought to save his energy.

oh my :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:

that is exactly what I said to the patrons at the Sports bar !
Look how Siakam countryman Imbiid performing for Philly ...
Why we trade Greg Munroe a.k.a. "Moose" to Philly.....and he is showing us was a mistake
Ibaka for a 3rd game in a row is just scoring fouls

I have been arguing that you do not trade Valencunis for 33 year old Garsol

the idea around the league was that at 33 such a player goes to a contender to polish their effort to go all the way. he goes there and come off the bench..NOT TO START EVERY GAME. HE CANT DO THAT PHYSICALLY ANYMORE..WHICH IS WHY HIS TEAM IS GIVING HIM AWAY

Uriri starts Gasol every game. it cant work. as I have ben arguing..TRADING VALENCUINIS FOR GASOL WAS A HUGE MISTAKE NO MATTER HOW GOOD GASOL FUCKING was.

THAT'S THE KEY WORD...was! TODAY..CURRENTLY, AT 25 YEARS OF AGE VALENCUNIS IS BETTER THAN GASOL IS NOW..NOW HOW GOOD HE WAS 10 YEARS AGO.. THAT IS WHY THAT WAS SUCH A LOUSY TRADE

uJIIRI DOES NOT KNOW WHAT THE FUCK HE IS DOING. HE DID NOT PLAY SERIOUS BASKETBALL..HIS MAJOR TRADES ARE SHIT AND HAVE LEFT THE rAPPTORS A SKELETON OF ITSELF

WHY THE FUCK YOU TRADE dErOZAN AND KEEP lOWERY :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:

LOOK AT MY OLD ARGUMENST AGAIN AND YOU WILL SEE WHY WE GOT 21 POINTS IN WE RARSE TO TAKE HOME LAST NIGHT

thats Toronto's luck right there..Embiid is clearly not fit

I don't think Embiid can shut out Leonard but he makes life difficult for him.

an unfit Embiid maybe the diff between 2-2 and 3-1 for Philly

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."
