With the Raps doing so terrible and really no one standing out, I would be surprised if any other NBA team would want any of the aforementioned players off this roster?! Absolutely the worst defensive Raps team over the history of this franchise. Raps hired the wrong coach and his assistants. A lot of fans have just stopped watching.
Shead should be with the 905 along with Mogbo and Chomche, call up Battle and bring back Carlson to the 905 now that OKC cut him. Mitchell should get some game time now so his trade value can be assessed a bit better by other teams.
Either A. the players are bad B. the coaching is bad C. the front office is clueless D. The coach has lost the locker room or, E. Alll of the above. I think it's E. This team is bad. There are so many 20+ point losses plus the largest loss in franchise history....it's hard to believe this organization won a championship. That looks like a fluke at this point 😂😂😂
Y’all gotta chill….The Raptors are doing what needs to be done in order to hit the ground running next season. You say you want to see development…. Guess what… you’re watching development. You’re watching Barnes develop his jumpshot from the post to midrange to the 3pt line. You’re watching RJ develop into a offence initiator. You’re seeing what Ja’Kobe can do. Dick is working on more than catch and shoot. Shead is looking like a good pick and getting reps in. They need more talent and the only way they can do it is either by trades, which they don’t have a lot to trade, or via the draft…. Darko is doing a great job
Funny how many people openly admit to being emotional and completely unaware of how development works. No clue why anyone thought this would be a season of wins and great team play.. lucky for us our management isn't the average Raptors fan 🍻
@@Here4aLyfeTime What? You trying to say Scottie jumper is bad? The one that looos vastly different from 3 years ago and is much quicker and smoother? There no way lol, must be a typo?
@@Here4aLyfeTime point is that he is getting game time reps in…. You can practice all you want with no one around but until you can do it in game…. It doesn’t mean a whole lot…. Does it need work? Obviously…. But he’s got 46 games left and then fine tune it in the off-season and come back better next year….same goes for all the other players…. This is not a wasted season
Yea, the guy who was a lottery pick and given up by his own team and hasn't shown much on the offensive end is probably mismanaged by Darko lol. We want to lose and develop young guys too Your math isn't mathing
@YakDPOY no scoring yet for what he provides a team at the right time, remember Dennis Rodman was mostly on the court for the rebounds and it aided, Mitchell in the game to disturb the offense of opponents and press, and that aided all the teams he's been on in his career, math is low, but the game is needed.
@dwightnewbould7004 Dennis Rodman, the highest rebound % player ever, even higher than Wilt and one of best defenders ever at what, 6 foot 9? Vs a guy who was a lottery pick given up on. Not sure I see the comparison at all but I don't even hate Davion. I am a defense first guy, I think he has a place.. I just see it as odd to look at the coaches for misusing him in a tank/development year. Shead shown more overall promise and we need to develop our talent at some point no? I guarantee Davion will be featured at some point. I just tired of the coach blame game.. he not so good that its a travesty in this situation or anything
He is top 5 perimeter defender in the league. He is definitely being misused. Raptors have a defence problem, in particular guarding the 3 and he is a great defender. Use him so he can teach the youth good defensive habits because right now i see a lot of bad habits with how they are going under screens, foot work, etc.
Most of the comments are just Darko is a bad coach but the Raptors have problems beyond coaching on most players on the roster. Maybe it's system, maybe it's injuries, but you can't expect to win when Scottie and Quickley can't shoot at least 30% from 3 when they are taking a combined 12 3's a game. That's 12 possessions a game where the team is not even getting 0.87 points per possession. League average is 1.13. That's horrendous and those are supposed to be our stars? You can't blame that on Darko. Not only this but every game is a turnover fest, maybe that's on Darko but players have to take accountability for that also. Can barely get up the court without fumbling the ball each time. Honestly this team has looked it's best when RJ, Poeltl and Gradey were leading the team while IQ and Scottie were injured. I'm not saying they should sit them or anything, especially since they are the future of this team, but they should need to take some kind of accountability, not just fire/blame the coach. As for the trade market for this Raptors team, we have nothing worth anything to trade. The only player with decent value that the Raps would be willing to part with is probably Poeltl. Who would probably get us a 1st and a swap or a 1st and a young player in return. All of the Raps fans are excited for this trade deadline and most likely scenario is we trade Boucher or Olynyk and get a second or a mid/late first round pick in return. I'm assuming it's going to be a disappointing trade deadline for most Raps fans.
We Jak’ed on BBQ Dick! We need to help our team and help GSW get Jimmy B and help Miami get off Jimmy while helping cap and draft assets. There is a good deal for all but too much to type. My trade would move BB and either Kelly or CB to Miami for money.
Darko wasn't brought in to coach this team. He was brought in to be a tank driver and he's on good course. Let him do his job.
Darko is great assistant coach. The key word is assistant. Bring back Griffin.

Darko is not coaching well😢
Darko bringing high school basketball to nba. Get that chain and pizza party.
It's not him. Our players suck. We have no rim protection and shooting.
@ last season with him raptors were blown out left and right . OG pascal Dennis Jak all were playing .
Either
A. the players are bad
B. the coaching is bad
C. the front office is clueless

I’m so checked out I barely tune in anymore. I’ll never give up on them completely though.
Mitchell is a miss used weapon by the coaches, brings energy and change that is a positive benefit Raptors when he is on the floor

Mitchell is a rookie he was a good fit for the team but I agree with darko
He's not a rookie.
Mitchell is a 4th year player….

This is all part of the tank, hopefully raptors play a lil more competitively, hopefully Raptors get as much draft capital for years to come.
Darko is trash coach
Darko is gone this summer
We Jak’ed on BBQ Dick!
We need to help our team and help GSW get Jimmy B and help Miami get off Jimmy while helping cap and draft assets.
There is a good deal for all but too much to type.
My trade would move BB and either Kelly or CB to Miami for money.
Only 1 game together ; give them a few games to gel…
If the plan is to tank then just trade poeltl. Get those picks back.
I had infinite patience for this team unhealthy. But this is inexcusable
I guess you didn't have infinite patience then, you had about 28 bad games of patience.
Maybe Mike Brown is available...?😂😂😂
I stopped watching raptors games though i still want them to improve and win! Add someone who can win games for them.
like what rj said..he is really disappointed that should be coming from darko
For real
