This team has to stop coasting out the gates thinking they can just turn it up in the second half....Other than the Laker game name a game they came out with that hot fiya magna lava intensity ??? SAC No Utah No Knicks No Phoenix No Nawlins No Its becoming a bad trend...

Statistically speaking Ibaka and Siakam have been more valuable to the Raptors so far than Kawhi :yeshrug:

Both are shooting much higher % on much less usage and have a higher Offensive rating especially Siakam and both have higher win shares....

Yeah if we are being honest, Kawhi hasn’t been that impressive. He was starting to find his legs prior to his jammed foot but since then he hasn’t been able to create his own shot. He continues to look like he’s not in shape yet. I think we have to rest him less, personally.

However the benefit to having him play has been that he can get to the line and also garners tons of attention from the defence.

So what exactly on this team is Casey responsible for ?

Im reading all these articles about how important he was and im not saying he wasnt but why does he get credit for everything right now ?

Are we giving him credit for Ibaka's resurgence ? Siakam ?

I dont want to shyt on the man but all the bullshyt im reading is overkill.

Hes in the right coaching position for himself,hes getting paid to coach a middling team thats on the playoff bubble to me thats the perfect job for him...

I have even heard hes great for developing young players ??? I dont see that :yeshrug:

Siakam is developing now that hes got freedom offensively,how much did Ross,JV,Sonny Weems really develop under his tutelage ?


I guess we can say DeRozan did develop into an all star while he was here but i dont think he deserves alot of credit for that....:yeshrug:

The organization was forced to be patient with him and let him develop because we were bad for so long,Demar's hard work in the off season is why he became an all star,theres alot of evidence that Casey is very ordinary with young players to just give him the accolades because hes returning for a game...

basically he deserves to be recognized for his win loss record here in 6-7 years but hes not solely responsible for any of this success,hes not a cornerstone or black yoda...

The bad taste in my mouth of every playoff failure outside of 2016 wont allow me to give him too much credit for anything...Too much asskissing on this.
