the thing with @Gil Scott-Heroin is that he knows this team isn't very good. he just doesn't want to be wrong and he'll never admit to being wrong which is why he's holding on to that demarre caroll crutch like demarre hasn't been a journeyman before joining the hawks system.

Dude, this team is not good defensively.
We are showing our true colors.
Even the Raptors commentator said that Bulls employees were like
this is how y'all play defense?We've been complete ass on that end for a minute now.

Y'all have the second best record in the East without your best perimeter defender.
Ok, so I want it on record:
Do you believe the Raptors will get past the first round?
That's the meanest thing anyone has ever said about me.
You'd walk the other way if you saw me in person.
And GTFOH with this positive reinforcement shyt - I don't have any emotional connection to your team. I couldn't give a fukk if y'all lose or not.
His continual defense of this team esp after a game like tonight is type funny....then he busts out the analytics

More like the fact their best perimeter defender being out for most of the season is finally catching up to them, unable to keep the defensive intensity they had during the first half of the season, schedule, teams are getting better and just the general ups and downs of a season that a team faces. Teams don't rank in the top-10 defensively for nearly four months if they're "not good". Especially teams that are missing a key defensive component. I'm not saying y'all some elite, lockdown defensive team - what I'm trying to say is that the difference between last season's defense and this year's is night and day.
You'll be surprised how many times I hear that when watching other teams play too.Even the Raptors commentator said that Bulls employees were like
We've been complete ass on that end for a minute now.

You mean when I bust out the facts? Anything that's good about this team you marginalize it as much as you can - beyond reason.His continual defense of this team esp after a game like tonight is type funny....then he busts out the analytics

Depends if they're healthy and depends on who they face.
We been giving out 110 point games all month and after a loss tonight where the D was beyond putrid why defend with numbers from last November....
good team defenses don't have continual nights like tonight...don't keep blowing double digit leads....those are defense issues...when u can't keep teams down.
It's been a large enough sample size to say it's not an exception anymore...the numbers will balance out by seasons end if they continue to stink it up...
And there's no reason to believe they won't. ..

Can you even remember the last time the raptors played a good defensive game?

Depends on what you mean by good? The league average basically changes from game to game. I know that I keep reiterating to you that you have to wait until DeMarre is back fit and healthy before judging where they're at defensively.
But we're the 2nd best team in the East and a top team defensively missing our best perimeter defender and you have as much faith as we do this entire team for this bum ass team. but I bet you wouldn't hesitate to say the Cavs would get the past the first round right.

I'd say the same thing - depends if they're healthy and who they matchup against. But furthermore, I've never stated that your team is as good as the Cavs in the first place. What is it you exactly think I'm trying to say about your team?

For all the talk about this team even he won't commit to this team winning but but but they'll have jalapeño knees back
