00:00Getting the team second opportunity points and you see the Raptors getting out in transition
00:04from turnovers a few turnovers they've created but again the Raptors continue to push their
00:09style push the pace a bit and we also know as I already mentioned their second half team where
00:14they really start being really active and really productive. Raptors are plus 17 on the glass as
00:21we check in with Danielle. Well I talked to assistant coach James Wade there at the half
00:26guys reminded him 21 made field goals on 15 assists feels like a pretty good recipe and he
00:31said well it could have been 21 made field goals on 20 assists if they'd made those bunny layups that
00:35you guys talked about but he feels that they got to just cut off Trey Johnson in the second half
00:40stay a little bit more disciplined don't turn it over and rebound and they'll be able to have a
00:45really strong second half. He also mentioned talking to Mamu in those moments and said forget about it
00:50move on next play we'll address it after the game. Quickly with the steal RJ with a bucket there CJ McCollum
00:58speaking to those shots that they missed right at the rim Raptors over the final seven minutes of the
01:05second quarter they shot five of 16 so many of them were right there at the basket after starting 16 for
01:1330. Oh net from Scotty the steal RJ and fouled by Chris Middleton he wanted to ensure that RJ was unable to get an
01:26and one but Barrett just goes in strong Barrett barreling putting his shoulder again in the chest but how about this pass and the catch and shoot by
01:36Scottie and Scottie's looking at the bench but look he's get back and get the steal and now he gives RJ an opportunity so the Raptors
01:43already mentioned they come out in the second half and they play with a whole different level of intensity and togetherness
01:49Barrett misses a second
01:56Barrett misses a second
02:00RJ on the season
02:0273 percent from the free throw line CJ McCollum
02:07trying to get it going for Washington
02:1011 a point game
02:12he's one of the guys that can get it going and quickly actually did a great job to CJ
02:16stop the pop right behind the screen and quickly did a good job not running into Justin Champagne gets a start here in the second half the former Raptor
02:29and that's knocked away Champagne 39 games with the Toronto Raptors in his fifth season undrafted out of Pittsburgh
02:41played on a two way contract last season
02:44and was converted to a standard contract in March
02:48his twin brother in San Antonio
02:53here's Ingram
02:55and he goes up strong the double comes
02:58and a foul is going to be charged
03:01to Champagne
03:02so Champagne picks it up
03:05and that's going to be his second as Ingram will head to the line he's a perfect four of four
03:12from the free throw line
03:20playing a complete game four assists four rebounds as well
03:25make it a place you'll never forget
03:28Ben MGM Sportsbook
03:29make it legendary
03:31we talked about B.I. and his ability to score the ball but
03:37again
03:39what he does
03:40by creating double teams and mismatches
03:43that puts so much pressure when you get to
03:46the darker part of the season and the later part of the season you see
03:49almost an opportunity for quick
03:51with the steal
03:52that's so valuable to your team
03:54and CJ McCollum
03:56racks it up
03:57he has done that throughout his career
04:00in the final year
04:02of his contract at 34 years of age
04:0613 years in the league
04:08I remember watching
04:10the big upset
04:11when he's at Lehigh
04:12and then beating Duke
04:13in the NCAA tournament
04:15then come to find out
04:16he's going to have this type of NBA career
04:18RJ great job the patience
04:20getting into the paint
04:22getting into the paint
04:25and then finishing
04:27McCollum
04:28firing away
04:30he has all eight
04:32of the Wizards points here in the third
04:35and he misses that one
04:38he's got 16 points
04:40Yakov deep
04:42post position
04:44and a foul as he was doubled
04:46so they look on the inside
04:48Cleveland by the way up 90 to 77 in the third with 247 to go
04:54you see just the subtle action by B.I.
04:57and that was a good job by quick again because
05:00B.I. wanted to dribble handoff
05:02quick was telling him to go the opposite way
05:04the whole time B.I. saw
05:06Pirtle fighting for position
05:07so the whole time he kept his eyes on entire court
05:10making that pass for Pirtle
05:12Yakov
05:14at the foul line on the season
05:15shooting 56 percent
05:18as we send it over to Danielle
05:20well Matt I talked to Yakov about that building chemistry
05:23he has with Brandon and he said he makes it so easy
05:26because he's so open asking
05:28how he feels about different situations
05:30where does he want the ball
05:32to try to strengthen their two man game
05:34he called B.I. a silent killer
05:36on how he slows things down but can get you a bucket
05:38and compared him to DeMar DeRozan back in the day
05:41he's
05:42his ability to attract doubles we talked about it in the open how
05:49it's just helped the Raptors in the half court
05:52and then as you mentioned to just all the weak side action that the Raptors within the half court
05:58are doing Champagny lays it up and in and a quick hitter there
06:01again that weak side action it forces the weak side defense to react so when you have a player that can greet their own opportunities
06:10they can't help as much because you're still a threat without the ball on the weak side so great balance to the entire offense
06:17good pass
06:18good pass
06:19Ingram
06:21back out to quick and the three
06:24got it
06:26quickly knocks it down
06:28sharing the basketball for a better shot
06:34long rebound Champagny up fake
06:37CJ McCullum and McCullum continues his run here in the third he's got a team B.I. and
06:51and
06:54Keyshawn George
06:55a foul
07:01and this is straight out of
07:03Picasso's collection right here this is beautiful just past the rock passing the back
07:08quickly not staying still getting off the ball relocate to get back out
07:13that's some Steph Curry action you know we see Steph Curry penetrate kick it he doesn't stay still and watch the offense work after that he continues to move so good job by Scottie finding quick
07:23quick passing across and then relocating and then finding quick again so just the ball movement and body movement is key to successful offense
07:35Trey Johnson checking in for Koulibaly Kispert in for Champagny
07:40814 on the clock
07:44Ingram
07:46at the free throw line
07:49at 22 in Philadelphia he has scored
07:5320 or more
07:5510 times this season
07:58season high twice at 29
08:00Raptors up by 13
08:03McCollum has 10 of the 12 points for Washington
08:06and McCollum that shot off the mark he wanted to call RJ ahead now to Ingram
08:14Ingram spinning and Kispert strips him
08:19and it's going to be out of bounds in Washington basketball
08:23it's a good job Kispert
08:24being in the help position doubling forcing a turnover
08:29Middleton's just feeling it here in the third
08:34he's got 20 points now
08:37and the young players they have some they have some great vets great established vets that they can learn from the Middleton
08:43and C.J. McCollum
08:46and C.J. McCollum
08:48Scottie spins back
08:50had Kispert on him
08:52took him to the end line
08:54and then with the spin able to finish
08:56and it's going to be Raptors basketball
08:59Yaka Pirtle knocks it away from Middleton
09:03and how about Pirtle activity out there on the perimeter
09:07being active forcing the turnover
09:10B.I.
09:14B.I.
09:16pulls it back gets by
09:18George
09:20and then
09:22reach in
09:24and man how many times have we seen B.I.
09:29go baseline
09:33fake and spin but that time he faked the spin and got back baseline
09:37great individual move
09:40can't read the scouting report
09:42got to read the player
09:44and Andy Nagy's coming over
09:48he's asking
09:50a question
09:52fouls going to be on Keyshawn George
09:57that's the team's fifth
10:00and that's it Andy Nagy had a word with the official scores table
10:05C.J. McCollum now in a lengthy conversation
10:10Ingram getting a lot of work done here at the free throw line
10:14he's eight of nine
10:17Andy Nagy he has that posture like he doesn't want to be mad
10:20he seems really seems like a serious individual
10:22he seems like a serious individual
10:28Raptors seven to ten in the quarter
10:31from the free throw line
10:37here's Middleton
10:39cut off by RJ
10:40George to three
10:43he has a second
10:45largest
10:47percentage improvement in three-point shooting in the NBA from last season to this season
10:53better than 13%
10:56shot 32% last season
10:5945 and a half percent this season
11:00Scotty

11:07Scotty found something that he likes getting it back in that middle
11:11giving it a paint jump hook after jump hook
11:13he's got seven in the quarter
11:15CJ has it stolen away by Scotty and then
11:19the right idea
11:21the Raptors give it a right back
11:25George
11:27with the denial
11:29Ingram leaves it for quick
11:31doesn't go
11:33Jakob on the glass

13:01guarded by McCollum
13:02backing in
13:04spins back
13:08and a foul on the floor and it's going to go against CJ McCollum
13:20bonus situation
13:22so RJ is going to head to the line
13:25CJ McCollum trying to put that old man strength that 13 years in the league strength
13:30and RJ's
13:32he's tough to handle down there
13:35first free throw good for
13:37RJ's got 17
13:39one
13:40and Matt that's another aspect
13:42with RJ we look talk about his game the post-ups ability
13:46posting up just turning his back keeping his eyes on the floor and
13:50you know the passing where that comes from but he's doing a good job of getting to his spot from the post-up angle

14:47already knows where his
14:48teammate is
14:50all he had to do was catch and shoot on time and on target
14:54RJ may have to take him out to dinner after that one great assist by quickly finding his balance finding
15:01when and where to deliver the rock
15:04Brad Faye mentioned this during halftime is that three is good just with the Raptors were able to do in Philadelphia in the third quarter RJ's got 10 in the quarter

23:57and inside of them
23:58are over there
24:00but we will see the last näge of honesty
24:04in the back room
24:06and hear you play some fun
24:07When you want the best seats, you get courtside.
24:13When you want the simplest insurance, you get Bel Air Direct.
24:17Bel Air Direct. Insurance. Simplified.
24:26You see the officials.
24:34There is a coach's challenge.
24:37Toronto will be charged in timeout, as well as they have no additional challenges.
24:44Let's see.
24:46I don't know. I don't see a green light flashing.
24:49Here's Mark Davis. He'll explain it all now.
24:52The green lights are flashing.
24:55Green lights are now flashing. Here's Mark Davis.
24:57A fun review has been determined that the defender illegally contacted the shooter's hand.
25:01Therefore, this is an unsuccessful challenge.
25:03They're not, as well as they have no additional challenges.
25:05They're not, as well as they have no additional challenges.
25:10And Kispert to the line.
25:11Scottie is second.
25:17So coaches challenge and Kispert
25:34to the line Scottie his second
25:39Raptors up 1 0 3 75 the first
25:44free throw of the quarter not
25:46anything earlier is interesting
25:48Darko in the pregame presser was
25:50asked a lot about different
25:53combinations of players on the
25:54floor and you know because now
25:56obviously we can look at every
25:58lineup combination he said look
25:59it's 15 games let's wait till
26:03there's 30 games and we'll have
26:06you know the sample size is so
26:07small right now but it's a small
26:10sample size but the coaches
26:11challenges are something that I
26:13think as the season goes on the
26:15Raptors will look at and kind of
26:18clean up a little bit Scotty with
26:21the left attacking count that
26:23bucket he's got 19 because those
26:26things are going to be that's
26:28going to be important as this
26:29season progresses support it's an
26:32important element you know it can
26:34win and it can lose your games like
26:36free throws you see Scott again a
26:37shot goaltender but it's just like
26:39three throws layup all these things
26:41count when you're trying to win the
26:42game Koulibaly and he goes up and
26:47he's fouled by Mamou
26:48I just love what Mamou's bringing to
26:54the game yeah we joked a lot well I
26:56joked about it finishing a rock but
26:59he's playing on the defensive end
27:00he's a presence when Pirtle's not in
27:03the game he's the next big so he
27:05can stretch the floor rebounding
27:07the rock is that eight rebound 14
27:11points and contesting everything at
27:13the room and right there just
27:15presented two points
27:16potentially Raptors a season now
27:20two and six coaches challenges
27:29Raptors here in this quarter they
27:31have scored the most in a quarter
27:37since March 14th of 2023 and they
27:40had 49 in the first quarter and
27:44that's going to finish the third

27:52Scottie B with 14 points in the
27:54third Raptors outscore Washington
27:5748 to 30 in the third and you
28:01just see we talked about how they
28:02come out as a second half team and
28:05they did not disappoint
28:06Raptors shot 75 percent in the
28:29third 15 for 20 they were plus 23 on the
28:34glass Barrett quickly Grady Dick along
28:39with Scottie and B.I. Raptors force 11

28:58Grady attacking and knocked out of
28:59Grady attacking and knocked out of bounds and it's going to be Washington basketball and it's going to be Washington basketball and they're going to be a good match for the game.
29:03to 11 points as Scottie lays that up and in he's got 21
29:11shot doesn't go second chance Whitmore puts it on the deck and a slam dunk
29:18Raptors get it in quickly Grady attacking and knocked out of bounds and
29:25it's gonna be Washington basketball you said Whitmore was very athletic that
29:29time wide-open lane he took advantage the Raptors trying to get it back in a
29:34hurry able to complete the play nine points for Whitmore
29:41George kicks it into the corner and the three no and there's Whitmore in a timeout
29:5011 points now for Cam Whitmore crash in the glass in his first season in
29:58Washington his third year in the NBA
30:03it's right to the rim for the throwdown him can get a man how many times you're
30:09gonna see this over and over the Raptors 21 19 21 15 14 everyone's involved in the
30:17game scoring a rock getting each other involved sharing you said is caring those
30:22are the things that's gonna make a team successful and the Raptors continue to
30:26follow that move Scottie Barnes you look at that offense but what has been so
30:34impressive with Scottie's game the things he's also doing on the defensive end he's
30:41the only player in the NBA with 20 or more steals on the season in 20 or more
30:46blocks Scottie with the throw down he's got 23 so Scottie right now has three steals in
30:54this game so he's up to 24 he doesn't have a block yet he has 26 blocks on the season
31:02corner three doesn't go and RJ Barrett with a rebound he has at least one steal and one
31:11block in 11 consecutive games that's the second longest streak in the NBA you know
31:18what I smell Matt defensive player of the year that's what I smell here's RJ well he
31:26can guard one through five the only player and that has not been talked about
31:34enough this season with 20 plus steals 20 plus blocks and that bucket is good I was
31:43talking about since he stepped foot in Canada his special ability to do it all
31:48Oh Jai to be I doesn't go Scotty has it knocked away here's Whitmore pulls up jumper doesn't go
32:02coming into this quarter as well after the timeout RJ Barrett made an outstanding pass to
32:12Scottie Barnes RJ Barrett slam dunk quickly you know he typically's call five well now he's dropping
32:29dimes oh my goodness I like what you're doing with that snap brought to you by

33:13that's a great skip that's two great shots keep going keep going
33:17Jamal shed encouraging Mamu Mamu with 14.7 rebounds here tonight
33:29whoop to bitch
33:34and back up top here's Carrington
33:37yeah I love the mic'd up aspect of the players because I think people don't give enough credit to the amount of communication and dialogue that happens in the game I'm talking young kids all the time you have to talk so many kids don't talk on the basketball floor but if you want to be a good player and if you want to have a great team you want to lead a team you have to do that.
33:58to lead a team you have to be comfortable
34:00with communicating and
34:02sometimes it's not what you say
34:04it's how you say it and when you say
34:06it that it delivered a message most effectively
34:08Raptors
34:12up 111-83
34:14Shedd has been outstanding
34:16tonight. Will Riley
34:18Jameer Watkins checking
34:20in for Washington. B.I.
34:22Foul by Carrington
34:23So Brandon Ingram will head to the free throw line.
34:36Just cool as a cucumber. It's like he knew he was going to get fouled that play.
34:40He I'm not trying to go here and score make a highlight.
34:44I'm going to get the steal. I'm a read the defender and I'm going to get fouled and I'm going to go to the rack.
34:48And I'm going to go to the free throw line
34:50and get these two free throws.
34:52He's 9-10 tonight
34:54from the foul line. Now 10-11

35:07slash get-together
35:08Over the last four games he's averaging
35:12over eight free throw attempts
35:14a night
35:15We can talk about the comparison
35:18to it. DeMar DeRozan. That was
35:20DeMar's special sauce. Not just the mid-range but getting to the free throw line. That's huge for an offensive team.
35:29Here's Buck Carrington with a three. And Carrington has shot it well from distance. 43 percent.
35:44Ingram. Ingram. 10 of the shot clock.
35:48Cleveland defeats Indiana.
35:52So the Cavs did their part.
35:55Ingram! Bucket! Get her!
36:00And taking a little bit of time to get up.
36:05And now he's walking away. It's his ankle and they're going to take a look.
36:10You can see he has been through so much.
36:14This file will be reviewed to see if it meets the criteria for a flagrant foul.
36:18And he's walking away.
36:20When you battle through a season like last season where you play 18 games.
36:30Because of the ankle injury in there. Carrington got underneath him.
36:36All right.
36:40And you see that right ankle.
36:46And Mark Davis is there.
36:59Here's Mark Davis.
37:10Upon review it has been determined that the defender committed a reckless closeout.
37:14Therefore this foul is a flagrant foul penalty one.
37:17Score the basket.
37:18He'll have two free throws to score one point.
37:25So Brandon Ingram will head to the line.
37:28He's got 23.
37:30We haven't seen Jakub Hurdle.
37:33Right.
37:33I would imagine.
37:35And remember he's been dealing with that lower back.
37:39And these are the sort of times where you go you know what.
37:46We got a back to back coming up.
37:49So you got a Sunday Monday scenario for Jakub.
37:53You want to continue to be careful.
37:55Raptors have jammed in a lot of games.
37:5710 of their first 15 on the road.
37:59Here they are.
38:00They come home three and four days.
38:03And for Ingram depending upon how that ankle feels.
38:08He's played 30 minutes.
38:11And that is good.
38:14And here comes Jacoby Walter.
38:16Yeah.
38:16He's going to check in for Brandon Ingram.
38:18Ingram.
38:18Ingram with 24 points.
38:20Eight rebounds.
38:21Six assists.
38:22Now for Jacoby Walter as well as Ojai Obagi and Mamuchelisvili.
38:31You look at this typically you go 116-86.
38:35Well you want to maintain this 30 point lead because point differential matters when it comes
38:42down to how things will play out into the knockout round.
38:47Here's Quick.
38:50Largest lead.
38:51And that's why the structure of this tournament and these games are so valuable again.
38:57It teaches you how to play with leads.
38:58It teaches you how to keep your discipline.
39:01Stay disciplined with your style no matter what aspect or what juncture the game was in.
39:06That it out.
39:10Champagne the former Raptor gets it down to Carrington under 10 of the shot clock.
39:15Lucevic.
39:22Again Raptors you want to play your style.
39:25You still want to share the rock.
39:27You don't want to do too much.
39:28You want to still make sure you play in the right way.
39:31Quick that shot doesn't go Champagne with it.
39:34Here's Carrington 647 on the clock looking now underneath Watkins denied by Quick.
39:44And it's last touch by Toronto Washington basketball.
39:49Good reaction by Quick.
39:51He lost his man just a little bit but he recovered.
39:53This is multiple efforts right there.
39:55Nice blocked shot.
39:58So shed in for Emmanuel quickly.
40:01Tonight 17 points quick has made two plus threes in 10 consecutive games.
40:11Will Riley on the inside.
40:13Gets it back.
40:15Shed spins out of the way.
40:21And blocking foul called on shed.
40:26Remember the Raptors do not have a challenge to use.
40:33We almost came through.
40:36Solid closeout by Mamu.
40:45Good position.
40:45I like the position again great defensive teams.
40:49It's not about the steals and.
40:51All of the flexions as you want to disrupt the other offensive.
40:54Output.
40:55But.
40:55When you're in position and you're one of those defensive teams.
40:58Those are the best teams.
40:59Because once you're in position.
41:00Now you're in position to rebound a rock.
41:02You're in position to help and contest shots.
41:05Jamal Shehead and Darko sharing a smile.
41:12Watkins at the foul line.
41:14He's on a two way.
41:16Second round pick out of Florida State.
41:21Played two seasons at VCU.
41:25Alma mater of Sherman Hamilton.
41:29The Rams.
41:30Here's Mamu.
41:32Attacking.
41:33Mamu!
41:34What the throw down!
41:36Get out of the way!
41:40He said, I'm not missing any more ducks.
41:42I'm going to finish it.
41:47Will Riley, who was born in Kitchener, Ontario.
41:53The Big Ten sixth man of the year a season ago at Illinois.
41:58Shed.
41:59I would imagine Grady Dick's going to check in for RJ.
42:04Mamu!
42:05Tez knocked you out!
42:07Three!
42:08Two!
42:09Three!
42:10Three!
42:11Great action.
42:12Back Mamu.
42:13Great action, Matt.
42:15One going all the way to the rack.
42:17The other one the three-point from the shot in the corner.
42:20And I love, we talked about the mic being mic'd up.
42:22Shed.
42:23Keep your head in the game.
42:24Keep your head in the game and look at him.
42:26Getting numbers.
42:27Season high.
42:2819.
42:29That three is good for Watkins.
42:355.15 to go.
42:38If the Raptors win this game, and they're certainly well on their way.
42:43Mamu with a left.
42:46Nine straight from Mamu.
42:49He's got 21.
42:53He'll become the first team to enter the knockout round in the NBA Cup.
43:03What an accomplishment just in itself.
43:05You think about the progression time over time.
43:08It's a process to it all.
43:10Raptors are taking care of business.
43:12Showing professionalism and maturity.
43:18And you just look at him.
43:19Look off the dribble handoff.
43:21Finish it all the way to the rack with the one hand flush.
43:24Never touches it with the off hand.
43:26Then Jamal Shedd finding his buddy in the corner.
43:29Knock him down the three ball.
43:30And then this one.
43:31I'm going to just go with the left hand.
43:32And finish.
43:33Crossover.
43:34And give you part of the package.
43:39R.J.
43:40At the.
43:41Foul line.
43:42Carrington fouls out.
43:56Coming into the second half.
43:58Different guys.
43:59We talked about Scottie.
44:00Really.
44:01Taking the leadership role and providing what the team needed.
44:04That boost.
44:05And R.J.
44:06Coming in there.
44:07Assisting the rock.
44:08To see my move.
44:09Picking his game up even more in the offensive.
44:11And he was already there with the energy and the rebounding.
44:14But the total game has come.
44:15And.
44:16Everyone else.
44:17Finding their rhythm and finding their niche.
44:20R.J.
44:21Barrett with twenty four tonight.
44:23Eight rebounds.
44:24Four assists and a foul.
44:26And that's going to get.
44:27Grady Dick into the game.
44:29Great night for R.J.
44:31Barrett.
44:34Ingram with twenty four.
44:35Scotty.
44:36Twenty three.
44:37Eighteen in the second half.
44:44A professional approach tonight once again by the Toronto Raptors.
44:48Anthony Gill in.
44:49Here's Riley.
44:52Riley makes a move.
44:53Shot doesn't go.
44:54Gill on the inside lays it up and in.
44:56You mentioned it earlier Matt.
44:57With this lineup.
44:58It's still valuable and precious minutes.
44:59The score is a key.
45:00The margin is a key.
45:01So you still have to play with a purpose.
45:03One.
45:04One.
45:05Two.
45:06Two.
45:07Two.
45:08Two.
45:09Three.
45:10Two.
45:11Three.
45:12Two.
45:13Three.
45:14Two.
45:15Three.
45:16Two.
45:17Three.
45:18Two.
45:19Two.
45:20Two.
45:21Two.
45:22Two.
45:23Two.
45:24the Raptors with four twenty point scores under four minutes left Walter
45:34digging in for the steel takes it away here's a body and he'll head to the
45:41free throw line again the intensity needs to remain there because of the
45:50point differential in the Emirates NBA Cup and you see the double coming right
45:56and you see right as soon as you turn your back Walter doing a good job of
45:59reading the play Obagi getting into the action running the floor getting to the
46:05free throw line Obagi the first is good battle's gonna check in for Mamu
46:14Jackpot City Casino this is what excitement is made of
46:26Chad will check out with ten assists in sixteen minutes of action fourth in the
46:36NBA in total assists off of the bench this season he's got eighty six now
46:43it's just a mad his second year it's not like the veteran is coming off the
46:52bench leading the team and he's a second year player being a leader coming off the
46:56bench keeping the team afloat and sometimes even giving the team a spark
47:00battle with the rebound outlet goes right over the back of Andy Nagy but I think
47:08with Jamal shed so much of that is just his makeup and mentality and then you play
47:13four years at the University of Houston you're coached by Kelvin Sampson and
47:20you know he you know in that way very similar to Fred Van Vliet he's 23 years of age he
47:31comes in and he's just already got a veteran sort of approach and I was a
47:38four-year player in college but I'll tell you this when I came into the league and I
47:42came into the game
47:44about Jameson and you see Walter still has a getting on the floor that's a second
47:49time now I wasn't ready to come on I wasn't that and I was a leader in college I was a
47:55leader by by design I guess but when I got to the NBA my confidence was not there to
48:00lead older guys and very good players I would as a senior yeah I'm the man I have to
48:05lead you guys but for him to be able to come in as a second year player and be
48:09that leader and take that role that's something special like a Fred Van Vliet as
48:14well it's the makeup to your point Alakai Branham on the court for Washington
48:19Champagne takes it back from Temple entry pass Branham underneath he was a first
48:25first-round pick of San Antonio he's in his fourth season with 226 left here
48:38rafters nearing victory which will send them to the knockout round in the Emirates
48:49NBA Cup Brady shot doesn't go 33 point game ran up and a whistle and a foul
49:06again I'm still impressed the intensity is still there a few plays ago you saw
49:10Garrett Temple get on the floor for a loose ball so everyone's coming in the game
49:15playing Raptors style of ball no matter how long you're sitting over there you're
49:19still playing with that type of energy and focus
49:25random at the line so here is the Emirates NBA Cup updated standings except for
49:32Toronto Cleveland they defeated Indiana their plus 33 now for the Toronto Raptors
49:40but again important to get as many points as you possibly can in the point differential
49:53department you'll see Indiana on Wednesday for their final cup game with 1 51 to go and
50:07the Raptors up by 31 and if you can win this one by 30 plus it'll it'll go a long way
50:18knockout rounds they're held at the home site and then semifinals and final held in Las Vegas
50:28got a little clean up over there on aisle nine
50:35and taking care of some business Mark Davis just making sure that area is dry
50:46with 1 51 to go here
50:50so you're looking at the game like some of the things that you can see the Raptors
50:57right now they just look polished right early in the season and I know Coach Darko you see a
51:03foul picked up on the shot but Coach Darko saying this is not the conclusion of the team
51:09but I'm looking at it you continue to continue to grow and I'm trying to think in my mind how
51:15can they continue to grow one you got to be healthy right so they've been healthy overall and that's that's been a blessing so
51:22you want to continue that health you want to continue to monitor to that
51:25but as far as the rest of the team defensively I think they've done a much better job adjusting their style
51:30from the super aggressive ninety four feet picking up but
51:34picking their spots and also playing basketball without fouling as much
51:37they're not putting their opponent on the line as much given those guys
51:41opportunities to score with the stock with the clock stop so
51:44they're growing as a team internally
51:47Raptors entered the game having won five in a row
51:50they'll win six in a row
51:52in ten of eleven
51:58battle with it gives it up
52:00temple back to battle little give and go action
52:04I got passed by Garrett Temple nice cut by battle catch and finish but the delivery from
52:12Garrett Temple was on the money after still locked in defensively and now
52:18another foul is called
52:22and it's going to be on Garrett Temple
52:27is it Garrett or is it on Jamison battle
52:30it's going to be battle 77 not 17
52:42first free throw good homestand continues
52:45it's a red hot Raptors take on
52:48the Brooklyn Nets

53:17so an opportunity for the Raptors
53:19just to keep
53:21continue
53:23to get W's
53:25but how you do that because as we know in the NBA that can change so much
53:30is have the approach that they had tonight right you mentioned at halftime come out
53:35huge third quarter forty eight points
53:41sticking to that professional approach
53:44and getting it done
53:45and just have an understanding every day is a new day that you want to continue to get better practice and then the game
53:50every situation has to count
53:53you're trying to prove something you're trying to accomplish something as a unit
53:57hold everyone accountable to each and every move and continue to play like professionals
