You can’t tell me the Raptors are not tanking right now. All 5 starters out. Some legit reasons, others are probably recovered but they want to just keep saying they’re injured. Masai is all in on this year’s draft to get a high draft pick- maybe he sees a Barnes in the draft that others don’t.

Back in the day, when the Raptors were still bad, you could get cheap seats for a game and move down to the expensive seating during half time. Basketball wasn't popular back then and a lot of the expensive seats went unsold. The ushers didn't really care and just let people move into those seats.

They are bad again but don't see being able to change seats like that happening anymore.

Someone needs to pay Rudy Gobert's fine. He's 100% right about gambling affecting the league and the sport.

There's no way Porter isn't the only one (willingly or unwillingly)

So players can't bet themselves but their wives, family and friends can and each team has to track those bets?! Sounds like a nightmare job.

Or just hire an interpreter and bet through them.

Is anyone here actually watching these games?
With tonight, 12 L's in a row.

I would imagine some season ticket holders must be pissed.
Going to these games must feel weird in contrast to previous years, and earlier parts of season.

I think I heard someone mention ticket prices will be going up next season?
Have the Raptors developed a significant corporate interest (akin to the Leafs) where tickets will be bought regardless?
