Raptors don't want RJ

 

[Derek Lee]

Quickley is getting the bag. Toppin's all but gone

 

[storyteller]

He’s also 22 years old and averaging 20 pts this season.

The crazy thing is he was averaging 22 points on 46% from the field in the 10 games since he got back from injury. He's been just fine as a third option. His defense has been the problem.

 

[ikbm]

Most players can get 20ppg if given 35mpg.

We are all watching the same dude. He's a role player. He's expendable.

If Toronto wants him to come home. Book the flight.

no they cant. shut this dumbass shyt up lmao

mf talk about nikkas thats 3/4 years older than rj












this team aint going nowhere if they invest in a future of building around julius randle. they better off blowing this shyt up

OG is not a better player than Barrett...

RJ is too much for OG
but i still thinks he needs to be traded

one of the trio has to go in order for to this team to reach da next level. who you choosing?

That ball needs to be in Brunson's hands at the end of regulation. Randle half the time cant even get a shot up in those situations.

All this discussion this season about RJ's offensive abilities and it was his defense that ended up getting him benched.....lol

It's still easily Randle for me. He's older, on a bigger contract, as bad or worse defensively, harder to build around, and we have a potential replacement that showed out when he got minutes last season but whose barely breaking 10 minutes a game this season.

So Randle is the problem now?

There's no singular problem with this team. The roster isn't good enough to contend and that's the problem.

You remove RJ...team stays mid. Remove Randle? team's still mid. Replace either guy with OG Anunoby and guess what? Still mid as hell, and an underdog against the top-5 in the conference. Remove Brunson and they fall apart.

The roster construction is the problem. The coach is the problem. The core not being good enough is just a symptom of that problem.

This game wasn't it. Energy felt off the whole game.

 

[El Jefe]

i agree with everything you said except the Obi part. Thibs already ruined Obi, if he's gonna succeed, its gonna be on a different team in a different system where a different coach rebuilds his game. He ain't doing that here, 3 years of jacking up 3s with no room to make mistakes is too much.

Randle is older, but he is still young. and he isn't selfish on the same level RJ is. Randle lets Brunson do his thing and even looks for him when he is hot ( like yesterday)

when RJ gets the ball, it always seems like he's just going for his. His style of play and how he gets shots is annoying
