One more half left in Dwane Casey Raptors Career Appreciation Thread

It's a personnel issue not coaching

It definitely coaching as well....There's a reason KG didn't want this bum around in Minny

This thread is funny it's being dragged by cats who haven't seen the team play before the last 3 games...

So this team can't stay within 20 in any game of the series but u willing to assume it's not the coach

We also got swept in the 1st round and lost a series were up 3-2 both teams had HC.

It counts.

So your talent is better than that?

 

[Monsanto]

Dude, it don't matter who your coach is. You don't have the talent lol. You aren't good enough Man. Stop blaming coaches for lack of talent.

This isn't my team don't put that on me.

But put it this way, how many points are players who thrive in a moving offense getting in a one dimensional offense?

And who controls that offensive plan? The coach.

nikka you can have a staff of Phil Jackson, Pop and Jerry Sloan and the raps still not getting out the 2nd round

If they never had to deal with lebron then maybe they'd be going to the finals..

Come on breh, Casey is a bad coach don't defend his BS. What do you think guys like Stevens, Spo, SVG(East coaches) would do with the Raps roster? Beat the Cavs likely not, but you would not be shaking your fukking head every 5 minutes.

Nah, Casey cannot get a pass for this.

There isn't a coach in the league that could beat the Cavs with the Raptors squad, they have more shooting this year than last and the whole idea of the Raptors hanging with them was predicated around their defense being bad. They turned it up defensively and the Raptors have absolutely no way of stopping their offense, the Cavs are taking their foot off the gas and still getting to 115 with ease. They are scoring easier this year than they did last year, last I checked their offensive rating for the series was something like 122 or some shyt, last year it was 118.


@Miggs thought I was buggin for saying the Cavs would rather play the Raptors in the 2nd round as opposed to the Wiz. But the Raptors play at the Cavs pace and don't really push the tempo.

Casey is just part of the problem
Pop could be coaching this team and maybe they would lose by 10-12 instead of 20-22 lol
Derozen and Lowry are regular season whores that don't show up consintently in the playoffs
It is what it is

I agree they would never beat the Cavs, that's not my issue. Raptors fans thinking they had a chance after last year are delusional.

The problem is guys aren't being utilised the way they should. Jonas can easily be a top 15 big man. The way Casey uses him is as a backdrop to the Lowry and Derozan ISO show. And when Jonas is playing well he gets benched.

There's no consistency as a player if your name isn't Derozan or Lowry.

The team isn't good breh
Same shyt happens every year
Y'all taking those 2 games u won last year to heart
It doesn't mean nothing
Its beyond Casey
When he is gone you will see it

What is the answer on defense? The Cavs have scored 30 or more in 7 of the 12 quarters, their offense has actually been better this year than last, but they cannot slow down the Cavs offense.

I'm done with this nikka. Carroll and Patterson gotta go too

Good point, you are speaking to player development. I can dig your point now. Yeah maybe they should make a change if he is lacking in that area.

Making Jonas your vocal point isn't changing anything breh
Raptors need a Demarcus Cousins type player if they are serious bout contending
Derozen and Lowry are easier to defend in playoffs
