They really need to figure out why the offense is so much more fluid when Kawhi isn't the focal point (or even playing).

Why can't he be more of a playmaker or play more off-ball? Is it just the attention he draws or is his playmaking skills actually weak? Why can't he compliment this system more fluidly?

Colin Cowherd made some valid points on his show. He talked about how the Raptors are able to win without him and how Kahwi doesn't pass the ball. How Kahwi only averages 2 assists per game.

From washing dishes to the NBA: The unlikely rise of Raptors' Chris Boucher | CBC Sports

What a story :wow: He only started playing organized ball at 19 and was a high school dropout. Now a Raptor. Shyt is movie worthy.


@Jamal514 First MTL Raptor :jbhmm: He's from Montreal-Nord.

Glad to see him make it. We haven't produced much basketball talent outside of Bill Wennington and Joel Anthony :mjlol:. But it's great to see an MTL breh playing for Raptors 905. Hopefully he can get alot of playing time for the NBA squad.
His bytch ass frog of a father ain't shyt. No doubt a racist CAC who hated having a black son.:pacspit:

From his wiki article
Boucher, a 6'10", 201 lb forward, was born in Castries, Saint Lucia. He moved with his mother, Mary MacVane, to Montrealwhen he was five to see his Canadian father Jean-Guy Boucher.[1][2] However, his parents split up when he was young and Boucher had a poor relationship with his father, who deemed him worthless

Chris probably lookin at him like:takedat: now.

Kinda weird how the Raps have never had a decent Canadian player before. Anthony Bennett was trash and Jamal Magloire was :flabbynsick: when they got him.

Boucher has some nice fundamentals,one thing i already notice looking at his highlights that he does better than JV is he keeps the ball high when he catches it around the basket....always drives me crazy when i see JV bring it down to his waist before going up only to get stripped...

Im confused too, but this SI cover story also says his pops is Quebecois? Jean-Guy Boucher is very Quebecois name too.

Chris Boucher left Saint Lucia on a plane for Montreal when he was five months old. His mother, Mary MacVane, was emigrating from the tiny, French-Creole-speaking island in the eastern Caribbean, to join Jean-Guy Boucher, the Quebecois man she'd met in 1989 while working as a caretaker in Montreal. They'd gotten married, and after Chris was born in Saint Lucia in 1993, they obtained the necessary paperwork in order to make a go of it as a family in Canada. Chris's maternal grandmother thought he should stay behind. Saint Lucia was a free-and-easy place for a boy, and their extended family, much of whom lived within blocks of each other near the capital of Castries, could handle raising him. But off he went to grow up in Montreal-Nord, a tough neighborhood that was a landing spot for many Caribbean and African immigrants. There was supposed to be opportunity in Montreal, but by the time he turned 19 in early 2012, Boucher had yet to find any of it.
