Shiteside would be a fine back up if he weren't so overpaid. Lead the league in rebounding last year, blocks the year before. Also reasonably efficient on offense. Just shouldn't be a starter in the modern NBA. But that contract ensured that he'll be over-utilized by whoever has him.

He's also missing every "intangible" in the book. You're just not going to win with that guy, he's not intelligent enough, zero mental fortitude.

Like a homeless mans Boogie Cousins... the talent is there, and in Boogies case the skill is there, but every other thing about him will prevent him from ever being a success.

Last night I watched Shitside brick a go ahead put back from 2 feet and then listened to his post game press conference, where you can tell he's just too fucking dumb to achieve anything.

Not to mention, this isn't new... In Sacramento there were all kinds of ridiculous stories about Whiteside being lazy as fuck or just doing absolutely dumb shit, Cousins himself used to make fun of him for how stupid he was, I'm not joking lol.

They were missing TJ too, whose a good all around player that can score.

Oh, and Rodney Mcgruder (one of their best defenders - been out all season).


Winslow too.

Kim Winslow and Radney McGregor. Buncha studs.

I don't really hate on the Raps fans personally, but I see where others are coming from (lost it at Lumi's last post)

but I personally like when foreigners (even though Canada is about as least foreign as possible) like our sports and leagues and become passionate about it

When you have tens of thousands of fans STANDING OUTSIDE your arena during games, that's nothing to scoff at IMO, especially given the weather in Toronto

RealGM is made up of mostly Raptors fans too. Were all over the place.

A lot of stuff we say(or at least myself) ITT is tongue in cheek. When you joke around that OG fucking Anunoby will be finals MVP, and cans like Redcans actually take the bait it's hard to stop.
 
Everything I hear about RealGM makes me glad I've never gone there.
 
Shitside is a poor mans Swiss Roll capela. But ill give shitside some points for playing almost every game vs shit talker socialmedia whore emDead ,who takes nights off to prepare for centers.

not just the fans, brother. Canada is a small population but has most foreign born players in the NBA.

while true (I'm the one that informed this thread of that prior to last season), it's largely just Toronto AFAIK
let's check
TT is from Brampton
Wiggins is from Toronto, although his dad was American and presumably met his sprinter Canadian Mom there and that's why he's from there?
Stauskas is from Etobicoke which is apparently former Western Toronto (per wiki)
Corey Joseph is from Toronto
A. Bennet was from Toronto
Olynyk is from Toronto
Dwight Powell is from Toronto
Tyler Ennis is from Brampton

I found one, kinda, Jamal Murray is from Kitchener which is like 60M/100K outside of Toronto?


before it was Rick Fox (via Bahamas and Toronto), Nash (well via Canada from S. Africa), Jamaal Magloire (toronto) and Joel Anthony (Montreal, wtf) that were holding it down

Correction Bill Wennington was also from Montreal, wtf
 
bball is growing all over Canada but for sure the GTA produces a lot of the talent
 
we had a Canadian star pitcher on the SDSU baseball team when I was there, and he was in basketball class w/ me

Dude was cool, but he legit thought he was a guard and he was 6'6" and couldn't handle...

cmon son
 
How the cRaps franch hasn't folded yet is beyond even my vast powers of analysis.

You'd think a franch so steeped in failure and decay would have been dissolved years ago. Truly a testament to the culture of losing adopted by not only the "team" itself but the city as well. Fascinating to say the least.

Ibaka and Johnson suspended 1 game each for altercation.


DeKobe 25k fine, Tragic 10k fine. Told you @faustian its motherfucking beef!!!


Raps play Cavs 2morro without Lowry and Ibaka........ cue the win.
 
Johnson is a 2nd degree blackbelt and had his first mma fight at 18yrs.
Ibaka grew up in the streets of africa and spain. He also has insane power from lifting iron.
