We can finally win a game! The raptors are loose on the south beach.

Let's go for the win*!

(*Unless Pacers and Magic are losing)

Edit: I believe it's at 1pm Eastern, on SN1
Also there is NBA 360 on NBA TV Canada, for those interested in playoff seeding. They will have all 30 teams to flip through

Those are our playoffs baybeeeee!

Beat the heat!!!!

Bring Scottie and Yak back (jk) and let's take down these perennial 2nd placers and keep em the the play-in.

Let's see what the full roster without Yak and Scottie can do - rest no one!

Not that it has any impact on us winning this game, it does help to lose in case Indy somehow loses to the Hawks.

A game thread a full day before the game? What's going on?

We need to trade Siakam for AJ Griffen before it's too late! - PhilBlackson

My first GT. LOL I joined rgm almost 20 yrs ago.

But yes I am excited the misery came to an end (for now).

We will get to enjoy some playoff bb. The west will have some crazy games. I also hope to see healthy Philly vs Saltics in the East.

I’m sad to see the season end

I’ve enjoyed watching Dick’s transformation and growth. The mid season Viagara training regime took the passivity and softness out of Dick.

IQ and RJ were great mid season adds.

Sucks Scottie went down but all things considered he had a great year for a 22 year still figuring out how to maximize his skill set. If he takes another jump next year like this year, ooh I have goosebumps.

Masai needs to ring in more shooting and size in the wings.

I’m probably the minority but I am enjoying watching what Darko is trying to do offensively. It’s a work in progress no doubt.

Next date of relevance on the calendar is may 12.

Not sure it’s my phone on iOS but it looks like you keep posting “We need to trade Siakam for AJ Griffen before it's too late! - PhilBlackson” in every post rather than it being a sig :lol:

. Gets me every time.

Only way this game is worth watching is if Scottie and Jakob return for the last game.

Nope. I want the Heat to win this game. I also want the Raps to go 0-82 next season, but that's a topic for the off-season.

Sorry my friend but I'll be watching the important games for the playoff seeding scenarios tomorrow instead

Well what a journey this season was. Ultimately, it ended where it should have last season and that's to building around Scottie and a young core. Look forward to the draft, the offseason videos of growth and the potential to add another piece in the 2025 draft.

I hope they put up a good fight to close things out. A real modern day season for the sickos. when we're winning again in a few seasons, we'll have ppl posting these, i'm sure.

where were you when sort of deals :lol:

Read on Twitter

It's gonna be a radically different team when we see them whole again in the fall. And it's insane to think what they started with compared to how they ended it, roster-wise.

Ultimately, I'm glad the FO pivoted though. There is no real joy without pain, up without down and the bottom that this season presented will soon be met by better to come in the seasons to follow, even if it is incremental at times. You gotta start somewhere and there'll be a bunch of failed playoff teams in the next few weeks/months that will be wishing they pivoted as well.
