Nobody in this league works harder for a bucket than the Raptors, it's all we know lmao

Yuta was getting dominated under the rim. Also he bricked all his shots. Extremely disappointing performance by him throughout the whole season tbh

The Raptors play by play guy is so awful. "It doesn't get any better than that" after a layup. The guy is freaking out the whole game. When actual crazy highlights happen and at the end of games he uses the exact same tone he used the rest of the game. Just terrible.

All that effort for just 4 points. Now you understand why shooting is so valuable in this league

Chaos reigns

Pass? Just get the offensive board

Suns defense here is like when your team can't clear the ball in rocket league

Just like in practice

I always get a laugh when hearing Pascal’s yells when attacking the rim.

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a 50 second clip sum up a team so completely before. It has everything:

  • incredible hustle
  • insane length
  • active rebounding
  • bricks on bricks

Perfectly captures this Raptors squad.

This is what I thought Detroit would play like this year. I'm such a moron sometimes

[–] jcourne3@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Forgot to add Pascal’s goat scream

[–] Fellers@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jack at the end lmao. True

[–] Whitecrewneck@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Love how hard they’re playing. I wish our team had effort like that.

When Precious uses his energy to crash the offensive boards good things happen. It’s unfortunate when he thinks he can handle the ball then proceeds to stop any sort of ball movement to pound some air out of it.

r/nba may I introduce you to Toronto Raptors back up guard Malachi Flynn

[–] Ok_Respond7928@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The fact that Precious fell down and still got the rebound is crazy Suns got out hustled down the stretch.

Also the best part about the first clip is the passes from GTJ and Precious.

These were like two made buckets away from Shaqtin

[–] mecon320@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Maybe not the best basketball, but definitely the most basketball.

Raps are winning games by purely out-hustling the other teams. They can't shoot, can't make FTs, so they just play harder. It's not pretty but I love to see the effort.
