I thought the poll was gonna be who is playing tonight vs. who is playing well.

RJ and IQ not playing for Toronto, Barnes, Poeltl and Boucher are already out. Jontay Porter being investigated.

Seems like OG is out and isn't any closer, but no point in having him play tonight and certainly the same goes for Mitch and Julius.

Burks is questionable. Thibs randomly said Bojan was nicked up in his presser after the Detroit game, but now I'm wondering if he meant Burks.

Didn't really think about it being a game thread lol.

Here is the scoop on Jontay Porter who is Michael Porter Jr's brother.

Raptors are truly the Craptors right now and losers of 11 straight. Hopefully we go up heavy early and guys don't have to play 40 min.

this is really exciting. I expect OG back. Randle I really dont. I think Jules tries but ends up having surgery to fix the tear. It's the way and he'll be back good as new for next year's title defense. But having Mitch off the bench and OG playing totally changes our size and just makes us a nightmare matchup.

Wow Mitch. Adds some optimism here. Even if he can only give us a few min

This is a great sign. I'm starting to worry about conditioning and the playoffs. I'm not worried about Mitch. He should be a reserve for now as he builds up his legs and wind. He won't need to log heavy minutes unless something happens to iHart or the match up dictates it. Either way he has time to ramp up.

I will definitely feel better about high usage players like OG and Randle when they start getting some game minutes. It's hard to shoot with dead legs. Orlando would be a nightmare matchup in the first round for us. We really need a few things to start going our way.

I hope to see Mitch back by Friday. I would like to see OG by next Thurs against Sac, partly for selfish reasons since I will be at that game. Randle, I think he will be held out and likely back with 1 or 2 games left in the regular season

I-Hart / Precious benched Mitch gets 48 minutes grabs 23 rebounds with 0 points and 0-8 from free throw.

Works on his 3 point shot in dark post game.
