It was ugly, sure. But game one of the year, things look flukey sometimes. They shot 34% from the field, on the road, against a really solid team, and lost by 3.

Ant and KAT both know they fucked ip tonight, let’s give it more than a game before we condemn the spacing and ball movement and entire offensive system.

If they’d hit two more shots, nobody would give a shit how they looked and would chalk it up.

    One thing that I didn’t mind is how much they were trying to force passes down low to Rudy. At some point it was like alright chill guys, but the only way they will get better at doing those passes in crunch time is actually doing them in game and not just in practice. I’m excited to see more passes to Rudy under the basket this year. Hope that continues, but at a more realistic pace.

    Finch said it perfectly when he said it’s easy to move the ball when stats don’t count, but the ball gets sticky once stats do count.

    Hopefully we can put the team first and also realize that moving the ball will make things easier for Ant too.

      Hopefully they learn their lesson after just one game and get back to playing the way the coach wants them too quick.

      The stats will come if you continue to play within the offense. You just have to trust that the ball will make its way back to you.

    fucking ridiculous statements like this are why this shit never changes

    Dude says Kat and Ant know. No, they think if they make two more shots they are winners again.

    Shit looked like the Rec in 2k. Raptors got a rebound and just chucked it down the court. Only way to stop that it is to make your shots.

    Ant might overpass next game haha, it feels like it’s often one or the another. I wonder how he can find a good balance.
