Raptors just don’t have enough weapons on the floor and the Bucks are making them pay, daring anybody other than VanVleet or Siakam to beat them.
Through 4 minutes, FVV/Siakam have taken 1 shot, Achiuwa has taken 3. That’s by design for Milwaukee, and Raps can’t let it happen. – 6:48 PM

Raps trailing 16-2, Bucks daring anyone but VanVleet and Siakam to score. They are winning that bet. – 6:48 PM

Grayson Allen has 7 points on 3-for-3 shooting in the first four minutes as the #Bucks go up 16-2 on the #Raptors
He hasn’t been healthy, really, since November. Milwaukee’s offense looks different when he’s right. – 6:46 PM

Achuiwa’s touched the ball on every Raptors possession and I would suspect the Bucks are just fine with that – 6:42 PM

Reading and listening to some of the insanely optimistic Kuminga comparisons over the last few days and I’m very aware the trade deadline is a few weeks away. Perfect time to convince a rival you have a ‘Giannis’ type. – 6:22 PM

The Raptors have four guys in the top 15 in minutes per game. Only one other team, the Lakers, has even three in the top 20. – 6:22 PM

Before young Stephen and Seth Curry could shoot around with their father Dell on Sundays growing up in Toronto, they first had to learn a little about US history and geography with Melissa Nori, the wife of Timberwolves assistant Micah Nori. Sunday story: startribune.com/teaching-steph… – 5:56 PM

#Bucks guard Jrue Holiday will miss his 4th straight game w/ ankle soreness.
Head coach Mike Budenholzer said there isn’t a concern it’s a long term issue and added, “I think he’s making progress. He’s in a good place so we’ll just see how long it takes.” – 5:25 PM

No Gary Trent Jr for the Raptors, Nick Nurse made mention that Barnes was a possibility but we won’t know for sure for a few more minutes
And, really, they don’t *have* to tell us until they throw the ball up – 5:17 PM

Barnes gets tonight off in Milwaukee for injury management, Birch has a busted nose and won’t play, Trent Jr is questionable, Bonga and Johnson are playing for the 905ers today and I believe Goran Dragic is having a late dinner with Lowry and Drake
The last bit may not be true – 1:34 PM
