Ya, I mean it's Canada...what exactly do you guys ever get upset over?
We get mad about stuff. For example, beer price increases, the current weed situation;government weed is more expensive than obtaining weed the traditional, illegal way. :lol:

Yup I love the good ole fashioned "dude you gotta try this shit" style

Also KV not sure if you remember who since I have killed a lot of brain cells but I posted that Ingram would eventually be a beast and someone replied he would be a bust...

Ingram this season so far: (not counting tonight) 25/7/4 on 49% and 41% from 3 with 1 block and 1 steal per game to add in there and he is only 22....

Yeah I know it wasn't you, we both saw mini Durant in him he just needed time to develop and to put some weight on and I figured Bronny would play PG this season especially given last season but he and AD are pretty lethal so far. I do miss Hart though need more shooting 23-3 or not.

Well, this sucks.
The Raptors provided the following injury updates on Thursday:



Marc Gasol sustained a strained left hamstring in the first quarter of play Wednesday, Dec. 18 at Detroit. He was reevaluated on Thursday and it was determined he will be out indefinitely.


With 6:47 to play in the fourth quarter, Pascal Siakam sustained a stretched groin after an awkward landing. He was evaluated Thursday and will be listed as out indefinitely.


Norman Powell left the same game with 3:17 to play in the fourth quarter after a collision with another player. After testing in Toronto on Thursday, it was determined he had sustained a subluxation of the left shoulder. He will also be out indefinitely.

Yes, we are doing pretty good so far. Nick Nurse has been awesome with managing the injuries and letting the new guys step up to show what they've got.

Looking forward to the Xmas day game with the Celtics.

Wow, really nice gift, SR! :cool:

Hopefully, the Raptors do better tonight against the Cs. The Christmas day game was a bit of a deflation for me.. :lol:

In unrelated but sort of related news...I just read that Kevin Garnett has some scenes in the movie Uncut Gems. He plays himself.

Thx! It's getting framed now to go up in the office.

You guys brought us back down to earth, for sure. Nurse was such a good hire; he makes Casey easy to forget. The east is really fun this year...unstable and unpredictable. As for the film, I really can't figure out what KG's place in it is, but I'm intrigued.

Derrick Rose has been getting a lot of all star votes and he deserves it. I'm kind of surprised he's not a starter yet on Detroit

5 killed according to CNN. They didn't mention Kobe, but cut away for a Helo crash in Calabasas

Wow, very sad news. Kobe's 13 year old daughter killed too. RIP..

I was on the bus on my way home to watch the Spurs game when I heard a couple of guys talking about it.

This is very sad.
I wasn't a fan of his, but he was a competitor like no other.....
Definitely elevated the game.
