    Man DeRozan is ridiculously overrated. Hate watching him play

    It's all good. The Rockets wouldn't have squandered this game the way these Toronto p*****s did. It just pisses me off that the Raptors only play hard against the Rockets.

    Toronto might be the worst 2nd seed of all time. This is a team without a plan, and with no real way to deal with adversity. Lowry is a scrub, Derozan is only slightly better. Yet, these guys will probably look like all stars when they play against Houston. Fkin A, man.

    Yeah, they both suck to be honest. But, dude is calm now and I hope Toronto plays the Rockets as softly as they did the Warriors tonight.

    There is absolutely no way this could've happened. Lowry was the back up plan after Bosh.

    Nope. Lowry was plane 1B after Rockets planned to sign Bosh.

    I don't think we had enough cap room if we had signed Bosh. The plan was to sign Bosh and match Parson. That would have put us way over the cap.

    Lowry committed to TOR before Parsons signed the offer sheet IIRC. We should have signed him and then Ariza, we might have had enough room to do that.

    Lowry
    Harden
    Ariza
    Jones (at the time lol)
    Howard

    I thought the only reason Lowry signed with Toronto was because the Rockets asked him to wait for them to sign Bosh. Lowry felt like he wasn't a priority. Rockets were fine going over the cap if they built a contender.

    Eh.. whatever.

    It was even worse than that actually, we told him we were interested but only if we couldn't sign Melo (we didn't even know Bosh was a possibility at the time yet). I think he commited to Toronto before we even met with Melo (and way before LBJ left MIA). Yea, should have just nabbed him, but whatever lol.

    yea dude just takes tough shots anad it's so ridiculous. He is making an absurd amount of contested long 2's but no way he can sustain it but they'll still stay 2nd since the East is so mediocre.
