He continues to play that FVV, Powell and ibaka lineup. It's like they didn't learn anything from that 76ers series. :francis:

f both of thm fakkits
id play lin, miller, anyone its ben like 3 weeks of struggles for those bums
Yup, not surprised one bit. That's why I mentioned them specifically and as expected, they brought nothing.

Bring in Boucher, he's fearless. He'll give it to Brook on the perimeter.
Unlock Jodie Meeks Milly, Unlock Malcolm X Miller.

serge ibaka 17 minutes
I dunno why he doesn’t get more burn. More he plays the better he is always been this way. He did well defensively vs the bucks 2 years ago. Instead let’s run siakim 40+ minutes as he struggles and shoots 2/9 from 3.

As for gasol he’s no longer on the elbows..dude is always floating on the perimeter in this offense out of his comfort zone of course he shot 20%

Let’s be realistic, Meeks, Miller or Boucher shouldn’t see the floor unless it’s garbage time. They just haven’t played enough to insert them into the rotation at this point.

However, Lin should at least get a look if only because he can get into the opponent’s defence and has a little bit of length to play D. When McCaw is back with the team he absolutely needs to play more. Nurse needs to admit the reality with this team which is that we are not a good half court scoring team and we must generate points from turnovers. McCaw is a top guard defender in the league and really fast which can help negate the Milwaukee drive and kick game or PG pnr. There is no reason for FVV, whose confidence is absolutely gone, to play at this point.

Also, we have been giving away leads with our small ball lineup featuring the bench at the beginning of second and especially fourth quarters all season. Then in the games we beat Philly and Orlando this playoffs we haven’t played those small ball 4th quarter lineups and in our losses we have played those lineups. At some point you gotta be more creative with the rotations and stop playing 3 short guards together. We don’t have a big man good enough at rebounding to negate the issues that small lineup creates defensively. Teams shoot over them. They can’t shoot over anybody or get the ball into the paint. They can’t get around screens. Everything falls apart with them on the floor. Stop playing them together.

Serge saved the raptors game seven but nurse goes back to his baby


And I agree serge is like a old car the more he plays he gets better as the game goes on

Only raptor who can score inside as well

Posted this in the series thread but...

Ughhhh Nick Nurse just told the media he’s gonna use that FVV/Lowry/Powell/Ibaka lineup to start the 4th again. Said they played well, it just didn’t look that way cuz Powell missed a layup, FVV missed a three and Lowry took a charge that was called a blocking foul.

This motherfukker gonna lose the series.
