I put together a starter pack for NBA and Toronto Raptors twitter follows that I think make for a good timeline so far

A good starting point for new accounts and includes some key feeds to add!

Genuinely think Scottie has been good this season but his main role as leader of the defense has been a failure

He is constantly making bad gambles, lazy plays, and then getting caught complaining instead of guarding

Be serious please

What Steph is doing at 37 is arguably much more impressive than LeBron

The most impressive thing about the Raptors last night was how aggressive the starters played without hogging the ball

RJ and Quickley played loose and free but understood that if they drew a second defender, it was time to pass or reset

Too much baseline talent to force shots

Bow - Quickley
Arrow - Barrett
Sword - Ingram
Shield - Barnes

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 5d

Quickley ran point well

Raptors starters looked good offensively

Hawks defense got a Trae problem

Scottie led bench lineup still sticky in the halfcourt, need to get him off ball

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 5d

The road to 60 wins begins

Raptors starters looking intriguing

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 11d

With Trump naming Miriam Adelson in his presser I do think as she becomes more mainstream covered that Kyrie Irving while injured will end up coming to the decision of not wanting to return to play for the Mavericks

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 11d

When yt dudes go hard on the Russell Westbrook hate it leaves a bad taste in my mouth

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 11d

If the Ulrich Chomche Raptors arc really is done due to injury that's some bad luck for the Raptors to spend resources on now both him and Koloko, for them to show promise, and then have the majority of their time to show proof be wasted to injury

Raptors mutuals who soft blocked me over the summer when all I really did was retweet Palestine news and react to some NBA items I find that very peculiar but all good

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 12d

That said I think if Jak gets the back stuff sorted and comes back fully healthy to start the season, given how aggressive BI and Quick have been hunting shots it's gunna be a lot of good offense out of those actions

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 12d

And he has been awful he clearly doesn't know how to fit while the rest of the team does pretty seamlessly.

He needs to find his role and dominate it

Seeing much more Scottie negativity this year across the board

I've been lower than the fanbase on him for a while but mostly because I didn't love his approach as much, not because I didn't see the talent

I wonder what flipped so fast for fans to be done with him like this

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 15d

Seeing so many people down on Scottie and yes have I been frustrated with his approach in game for a few years? sure I have, but he still is clearly a super talent when in the right role

Post and Elbows instead of perimeter to start his attacks would be huge for him

Asad @swarlayzers.bsky.social · 15d

If Quickley is fully bought in to hunting his 3 ball instead of being a facilitating point guard this year Raptors are going to be in a good spot

Him, Ingram and RJ are clear fits with each other

Will be interested in seeing how Scottie chooses to play around them

Bam role would be great for him

Quickley kind of doesn't have a role in this offense....

legit was thinking about how cool it would be to have a website that simulates what the internet or computers were like in older years

like let me log in to 2010 facebook

With each passing day, I wish I savored what the internet was like in the early-mid 2010s compared to the cesspool of shit we're in now and going forward
