The Raptors offense is broken & here’s the REAL problem
The Toronto Raptors have a system designed for super high IQ processors to spot, attack and exploit advantages. And with 2 of their smartest players out of the lineup, Toronto has fallen to league worst offensive ratings.
Here’s the fix.

DARKO
Head Coach, Toronto Raptors (2023– ) — first Serbian-born NBA head coach.
Former assistant with Grizzlies, Suns, and Thunder.
Ex–G League head coach (Tulsa 66ers).
Known for player development, smart offense, and strong culture.
ROB
Bench guard — high school level.
Was quick this bad in pomt guard skillls the past 2 years? Wonder why raps were confident he could be a pg. Maybe quick has some brain fog with long covid?
Shead and Hepburn would have lobbed it to Scottie.
The Raptors don't have shooters, they don't have size, most of their front court and back court guesses on defense, their starting point guard is defective. Bobby sees this and the bottom of the barrel offense and does NOTHING. Could Darko be failing at communicating his strategies or are there players tuning him out because they know he'll be the first one out the door? It speaks to a lack of character in the organization that this continues unabated and this same blight will waste Scottie's prime.
Honestly a Darius garland trade would do this team wonders, defensive level around the same, but has way better playmaking skills than Quickley with around the same shooting ability. Quickley, Gradey, and two protected firsts should get the deal done
IQs inability to get a good paint touch on drives is a hard watch
Appreciate the early analysis’ and breakdown to start my day. After last night I’ll take a good autopsy as a palette cleanser 😂
I really wonder what the plan was with IQ.. sure he can shoot in theory, but the court processing?
The bias against RJ and in favor of Scotty is glaring. You jumped at every chance to criticize RJ whenever he has a bad game. When RJ is playing well and the team is winning, you pull up stats that make RJ look bad. When Raptors consistently lose without RJ, you dismiss it as "correlation does not mean causation". The opposite is true for Scotty Barns. Whenever Scotty have bad games, you'll say he's "too passive" and need to take more shots, even if he missed everything, really? Just because he's your favorite boy? I get it Scotty is better at defense than RJ, but it's way overrated. I'll bet if Scotty was out instead of RJ, the team would have done better.
This team is a joke 😅
Rob scottie was wide open under the basket and he passed it to ochai. You seen that right ?
IQ is legit an idiot.
Is he doing it to boost his friend RJ while he is off?
Long spells without scoring.
I musta tuned out last night, cause I would have been hella mad if I was properly watching.
I would take Scott vs ANYBODY on a fast break. The outlet pass was RIGHT THERE.
And then the lob pass was RIGHT THERE TOO. Right over CJ's head.
Man… Yikes.
remember guys IQ is not a true point guard. This task was given to him when he got traded from New York. Perhaps we need a real point guard.
Pen i know you talk a lot about making a trade for a big that can rebound but i think a point guard that can actually play make is just as important. what are your thoughts on this?
Without Yak, we don’t even able to set a decent screen, on top of IQ not good at using screen…..
Smash the like button. Great video.
I want a new point guard as a late Christmas present. My biggest question is why hasn’t Darko noticed and adjusted to
Making Quick more off ball?
I'm done with this team until they solve their center depth issues. It's been YEARS with no solution and I'm over it.
I think IQ is over focussing on assist to turnover ratio
Quickley made mistakes in this game that were high school level or lower. I didn't ever play ball but even I was beside myself watching this fool mess up in the most elementary ways possible.
With how long RJ has been out I'm so bummed they haven't tinkered with point Scottie even once with Mamu or ochai or CMB at the 4 and quick at the 2
Dislike saying Immanuel Quickley needs brain surgery – probably why you got so many other dislikes as well
