P. Achiuwa30 MIN, 4 PTS, 9 REB, 2 AST, 2 STL, 1-10 FG, 0-2 3FG, 2- FT, 3 BLK, 1 TO, +9 +/-
He’s struggled all season in any form of decide ‘n roll possibility however did handle to complete a pair tonight (albeit awkwardly). Very similar to Boucher, it’s nearly like they see Scottie Barnes’ point-forward play and ask themselves, if he can do it then why not me? To his credit score, he gained a giant leap ball in opposition to Drummond which might’ve given Philly the ball with the lead with 1:32 left. The general protection was additionally good so it’s principally the offense that leaves one wanting.

Elite playmaking. Neglect in regards to the scoring, we all know he can try this and can solely get higher. What we’re now seeing is him taking guys off the dribble in 1v1 conditions and choosing out shooters whereas assistance is approaching the drives. Him discovering Fred to ice the sport is Exhibit A.
That's the OGary connection!! pic.twitter.com/hdYYyBYZXR

They used to say Dennis Rodman knew the place the ball was going after a rebound. Scottie has an identical sense on the glass and is well-positioned each time. Had an opportunity to run the offense with no PG in a pair lineups, and I can see him and Banton forming a good ball-handling duo giving protection one thing to consider. As for his manufacturing, this sport was extra of the identical: top quality selections, environment friendly capturing and powerful protection. What a decide.
Classic Scottie! pic.twitter.com/PwX3XLJZ4G

You don’t affiliate him with placing strain on the protection as a result of up to now in his profession he’s tended to function on the periphery. This 12 months he’s realizing that he wants to assist out in softening the center of defenses, and the easiest way of going about it’s both pushing it in transition which he was good at tonight, and chopping off the ball, which he bought a pair scores from. Nevertheless, when the sport slows down there’s nonetheless rut within the units, as we noticed within the late Philly run when transition buckets weren’t freely out there. These are conditions the place he advantages from enjoying off the ball, particularly with OG dealing with the ball and on the lookout for him.

G. Trent Jr.36 MIN, 20 PTS, 5 REB, 4 AST, 2 STL, 7-16 FG, 4-9 3FG, 2- FT, 0 BLK, 2 TO, +1 +/-
Having a pure shooter who’s not afraid to take large photographs is a luxurious in itself, however once you don’t essentially need to name performs for them and as a substitute depend on their really feel and basketball IQ to seek out their sport, you get Gary Trent Jr. He’s simply playable in any lineup and we even noticed him deal with the ball on a key possession popping out of a timeout. He’s changing into an indispensable asset who has bailed the Raptors out on the tail finish of a clock many occasions.

Began off brutally attempting to be level ahead however his evening took a flip for the good after hitting a 3 which appeared to free him up from the shackles of shitiness. He was trailing performs in transition, presenting himself as a substitute of idling, and taking photographs arrange for him, as a substitute of attempting to fabricate, which is what the protection desires of him.

Many followers have been calling for a bit extra Banton and tonight we noticed him dealing with the ball the majority of the time he was in there. He combines nicely with Fred and Scottie, however when you throw him in a lineup with Boucher and Treasured, issues turn out to be a bit unwieldy on the courtroom when it comes to spacing. He must develop his shot, although. The protection pays him no consideration on the perimeter resulting in congestion making his drives tougher to execute.

Didn’t play poorly within the first half however Nurse went with Banton because the secondary ball-handler for almost all of the second. BUT, got here again halfway by the fourth and hit a fully huge three, a steal from behind and a contested rebound which led to an OG three. Gotta love guys who can are available in chilly and contribute.

A-
Nick Nurse
Experimented with lineup mixtures together with one consisting of Barnes, Banton, Achiuwa, Trent and Boucher. That didn’t go nicely. What did go nicely is him going to a zone within the third quarter which bewildered Philly for a great six minutes. Had some good out of timeout performs within the second half as nicely, however his masterpiece stroke would possibly’ve been to tug Svi off the bench within the fourth.
Issues We Noticed
Nick Nurse’s zone protection within the third modified the tide of the sport as a result of it pressured Philly to move the ball round and discover holes within the protection as a substitute of simply hurting the Raptors for being aggressive on protection.
The Raptors protection is much from excellent, particularly in stopping dribble penetration. However they’ve it in them to lock a workforce down for a 2-3 minute stretch nearly on demand. We noticed that as they ended the sport on a 9-0 run.
Tip Arsenalist
Fast Response: Raptors 115, 76ers 109 originated on Raptors Republic.
