    Got to react to that double team earlier. Why didn't that defender's player move to an open spot?

    Why didn't ham just shoot that open shot he had?

    Our players do this too much. Pass up an open shot for a contested one

    Brutal team defense again. Perimeter players for Toronto get whatever shot they want.

    I'm pretty sure we don't want home court advantage.

    The Raptors have 14 point paints and 9 made free throws, and they're somehow winning. That isn't sustainable.

    Good thing they don't have Calderon anymore otherwise we'd be losing by 20...

    passing up open 3's for contested shots might be the most frustrating thing to watch..

    really low iq players on this team

    They are making open midrange jumpers. Those can be pretty automatic, the rockets are the only team in the league that thinks that 3s are the only way to win a game.

    Hamilton needs to stop trying to create of the dribble. That is not something he is good at. In fact, I'm starting to wonder if he is good at anything. One thing I'm certain of is that he shouldn't be passing on shots, pump faking, and then trying to take the ball either into the teeth of the defense or stopping to pull up for a jumper. Very low percentage play for him and he seems to do it too much for my liking.

    Yea and I hate that this team relies so much on the 3 but Jesus... Take that open shot! The coaching staff should be furious.

    Wow here we go allowing the opposing team guards to light us up on the perimeter. Last night JJ and tonight DD.
