Takeaways: The Toronto Raptors are excruciatingly obnoxiously mediocre. The only bright spot was Scottie Barnes. His line was 29 points 9 rebounds 7 assists. Great going to the rim, backing guys down, the handles are amazing, hitting 3s, playing good defence on everyone OTHER than Damian Lillard, who had 37 points, 13 assists, 4 rebounds, 2 steals. We look up and Dame has 20 in the beginning of the second q,… Like is this guy going for 50!?!? Jakob Poeltl had 13 points 11 boards… but one thing we noticed is that when he’s at the top of the key, or free throw extended, he does not shoot, and he doesn’t even LOOK at the rim. Jalen McDaniels was the only one on the court who had a double digit +/- 18 mins, +21. The Raptors need to start playing him more. Two special shout outs! Markquis Nowell hit his FIRST ever points in the league from the free throw line. Quick little shout out to Garret Temple, the best dressed man on the Raptors… came in and hit a three last night, left. Like a don.
