[Game] 77/82: Kings @ Raptors 01 APR 2026, 5pm PT/8pm ET

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Honorable Mention Precious Achiuwa.

 

[Spike]

Anyone here ever visited Toronto? I was thinking of driving across the border to visit this summer.

I have. It's super cool for such a big city. Walked around for a few days. Got in a fight with a Canadian. Went something like this:

"Eh! Eh!"
"Huh?"
"You're wearing a Star Wars shirt!"
"Yeah?"
"I like Star Trek! Let's fight!"
"Ok. Uh, Star Trek sucks!"
"Star Wars sucks!"
"...wanna grab a beer?"
"Sweet!"

Good lord, Precious.

If he ruins our lotto position, he better resign here!

If Doug wins this game I hope the fire his ass and leave him in Toronto.

 

[Tetsujin]

The Raptors are apparently unaware of the concept of boxing out.

 

[Tetsujin]

Killian Hayes never going to be a stud but there’s nothing really preventing him from carving out a Lonzo Ball role as big connective defensive role player off-ball guard.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Sean Wright needs to study some Bill Kennedy game tape.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Why is Achiuwa back in the game?

 

[Tetsujin]

Why is Achiuwa back in the game?

All our bigs are in foul trouble aside from him.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

Then go small! tf?

 

[Tetsujin]

Then go small! tf?

The next biggest “healthy” player on the Kings roster is Doug McBuckets and I’m fairly certain Adam Silver would strip the Kings of their picks for the next decade if he say them playing him at the five for any minutes.

Half of y'all think that Silver is feckless, anyway. Make him do it.

 

[Caccia]

Toronto is definitely playing like it's the second night of a back-to-back in early April.

 

[Tetsujin]

You’d think the RAPTORS would be aware of the Merchant’s ability to draw fouls but i guess they not like us

 

[Krunker]

Dang we burying the 3

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

It's crazy to watch a basketball game knowing that the best thing for a team in the long run is to lose, but not wanting them to, anyway.

 

[Tetsujin]

Dang we burying the 3

Plowden is streaky but his willingness to shoot the three whenever he gets the ball has opened up the offense for the Kings second unit in a way it hasn’t been for most of the season.

 

[Krunker]

I'm rooting for our guys to play well, but for Toronto to just be a little better

 

[Tetsujin]

Feels like the Kings have been trying to lose, the Raptors just have not seized the opportunity as of yet for some reason.

 

[Tetsujin]

Also this Raptors halfcourt offense is ass without Brandon Ingram.

 

[Caccia]

I think it is fair to say that no one in recent Sacramento history has been as good at drawing fouls as DeMar DeRozan.

 

[Tetsujin]

Tank Commander in Arabic trying to put the Raptors over

 

[Telemachus]

I swear it looks like Toronto is trying to lose this game.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

I swear it looks like Toronto is trying to lose this game.

They don't look like they're trying to lose so much as they look like they don't care if they win. Which is weird, considering that a loss would drop them into a tie for sixth with Philadelphia.

 

[Tetsujin]

Darko Rajakovic is not a good coach

 

[Caccia]

There is a spot for DeMar in the Cirque du soleil when he retires.

 

[Tetsujin]

The “Should’ve traded for Sabonis” Special

 

[Tetsujin]

The Raptors are a playoff team?!

 

[LoungeLizard]

Raptors suck. How are (were) they the 6th seed?

 

[Tetsujin]

Raptors suck. How are they the 6th seed?

To be fair, they are missing their two best iso players.

 

[Mr. S£im Citrus]

April Fools, indeed.
