Re: Barnes leaving the bench early, Rajakovic chalked it up to a misunderstanding, said Scottie thought there was a shot clock violation & game was over. They spoke this AM, Darko told him he needs to have better awareness as a leader but team doesn’t feel discipline is required

1 game being benched is not that big of a deal, especially with the effort shown in that game. I still believe in Scottie but you gotta send some message
Damage control

Man, if this is the pedestrian shit that passes for news, this is going to be a long finish to the season.
Misunderstanding right
He needed to beat the traffic
So Raptors organization are enablers.
Hardly surprised with Barnes’ pending appearance at the ASG they didn’t want to make it a story…pure damage control.
More excuses, more coddling
So now they’re making up excuses, like Scottie was unaware none of his teammates were anywhere to be seen when he was getting to the locker room.
🤦🏻
[insert kid saying bullshit in his car seat]
Lol there’s literally a clip of him walking ALONE in the hallway, how do you not notice your teammates and coaches not with you
I love Scottie but this is not a good look. Immaturity is showing.
Nice he stormed off alone. He’s the only who didnt understand eh?
Darko knows who’s boss.
Weak
Lmao. It’s not an isolated incident. If they want to wait til after the all star game to try to build some standards fine, but they gotta do something soon lol.
Excellent, more coddling.
The big phrase is ‘team doesn’t feel’ that means he and Bobby and Masai or he and the other players figured this out together. Ya Darko could have ranted again about ‘Scottie Barns!’ Again but going the other way and where does it get you?
Everyone knows the Coach and Star Player need to be on the same page or it doesn’t work, Darko is trying to bridge the divide but Scottie is making it tough.
Should have taken Udoka with the baggage
Miss you Nick Nurse, imagine having a top 5 coach in the nba and kicking him to the curb.
Darko giving big substitute teacher energy
Who cares. He dropped a triple single with the 2nd most minutes played. Should’ve benched him when we were down 20. We lost to the 3rd worst team (record wise) in the nba at home in a blowout win.
