Kyrie Irving prays for those that are suffering around the world. ❤️🤲 “Everybody that’s around the world, I’m praying for you in Palestine, and Sudan, and Congo, in Ethiopia, in American cities that are dealing with ICE situations, or dealing with injustices.” 🐐 Kyrie🤞🏾

Brandon Ingram post-game: “Coach wanted to use me as a screener. He noticed that my man wasn’t coming off of me. He wanted me outside of the action a little bit, and being a receiver.” “At the end of the day, me shooting 9 shots is not going to win basketball games.” “Just got to figure out ways where I can still be effective while they’re doing whatever defence.”

Paul Pierce, Tony Allen, and Danny Green went OFF after listening to Brandon Ingram’s postgame comments. 😳 PP: “For him to go to the press conference and say coaches made me a screener, or me getting 9 shots, that has nothing to do with coaches[…] you a number one (option), you an all-star, that’s not their fault.” “If you sitting there, and you just sitting back to the side… no. Be vocal about that. If I got one shot at the end of the first quarter, and I’m our number option, there’s a problem. There’s definitely a problem.” “Is Brandon Ingram the guy on this team? Is he the guy? Get the rebound, and bring it up, and do something with it. Say something in the timeout!” “I always get mad at players that go to the press conference after, who the number one option, talking about, ‘I only got this many shots.’ No, that ain’t happening, homie.” DG: “I’m just not a fan of the press conference.” “If the series is over, then you can say some things that you saw that happened. But after game one…” “Maybe Darko was trying to use screening to get you to mismatch to switch off. But, you be a screener and still demand the ball. Set a good screen, get the mismatch, go get the ball.” “They need a floor general. That’s probably why you’re missing (Immanuel) Quick’. But yeah, he didn’t need to speak on it.” TA: “For him to get up there, and say that, I’m like ‘ahh.’ Too early (in the series), though. I can see if that was Game 6 or 7.” DG: “That’s not a good sign from Brandon Ingram. I don’t know, man.” (Via. No Fouls Given)

Matt Bonner, who was on the Raptors when Kobe Bryant dropped 81 points on them, does not think Bam Adebayo’s 83-point game is as impressive as Kobe’s 81: “When someone has a game like that, you want to think they were on fire, or they were in the zone, and with Bam, he was 7-22 from 3. If someone was 7-22 from 3, I’m closing out, sure, I’m not like, ‘this guy’s a threat to break the 2nd-most points in a game.’” “It’s a fun story, but apples and oranges if you’re comparing it to Kobe.” “When I think of greatest performances in NBA history, that’s what I picture (Kobe 81), not someone who shot 7-22 from 3, under 50% from the floor, and 42 free throws.” (🎥: Sportsnet)

Fred VanVleet shared a story about a conversation he had with Masai Ujiri, and something that stood out to me in the story was, “The only guy I didn’t pay, I traded him to the team he wanted to go to.” I wonder who FVV was referring to. 👀 🤔 (🎥: Out The Mud Podcast )

While answering a question about Darko (giving Darko his flowers), Scottie Barnes also reflected on the series against the Cavs as well: “We knew what it was going to come down to. I wasn’t… nothing spectacular. They worked harder than us this game.” “They had 20 offensive rebounds, that’s just… that’s big for them. It wasn’t nothing too crazy. We knew they were going to go and do that.” “They got 4 guys crashing every single play. Even guys that are 5’10, 5’11 crashing. They were just crashing the glass.” 👀

Dillon Brooks went OFF on DeMar DeRozan’s tenure with the Toronto Raptors 😳: DB: “Raptors couldn’t get over the hump, right?” A00: “What hump? They got over it!” LOW: “Why couldn’t they?” DB: “Why? They got DeRozan out of there.” “I’ll be real for the city, bro. DeRozan was not holding his weight out there.” “He couldn’t win. He made the playoffs every year. One time a 1 seed. One time a 5 seed. He run into LeBron, can’t do nothing.” “You can choke, but you can’t go to media and say, like, ‘Can’t do nothing without LeBron.’”

Carmelo Anthony believes Collin Murray-Boyles should’ve been All-Rookie First Team: “This is a kid who nobody was expecting anything from. He go out there in Toronto, help those guys make the Playoffs, compete in the Playoffs, and he played a very, very big role on the Toronto Raptors team this year.” “This is a great pick for the Toronto Raptors, and they have a good, good future in Murray-Boyles.” W Melo. ❤️🐐 🎥: NBC/Peacock

Fred VanVleet on the 2018-19 Raptors: “Me and Kyle [Lowry], text a couple times a week, but every probably twice a month or once a month, we’ll share s**t like, that team we had bro, that’s the HIGHEST level of basketball I’ve ever seen in my life, with my own eyes.” [via. Unguarded Podcast]

The Toronto Raptors are training at the ASB GlassFloor Athletes Lab in Orlando and I got to say, the technology is MINDBLOWING. Using LED lights to change to any court you want (even the NBA Cup courts), to drawing up X’s and O’s that show up on the court. 😳 Future is here.

LeBron James on Brandon Ingram: “BI is an unbelievable talent. I had him in my first year in LA, and he was a young stud then” “Season vet now, super mature now. His game is mature. He’s gotten better and better, and I love to see him thrive.” He also showed love to some other first year in LA teammates, including Lonzo Ball, Alex Caruso, Josh Hart, and Ivica Zubac.

RJ Barrett on Moussa Diabaté: “Seeing Moussa in the league is the craziest thing.” “I was a junior. Sandro was there to. Moussa came in. He was in the 8th, maybe 9th grade. So it’s like, he’s like a little kid.” “I remember giving him, he didn’t really have much, my shoes after a game one time, and he wore it for a while. He’s like a little brother to me.” ❤️ “He’s such a force on the glass. You got to try to keep him out the paint.” “He blocked me twice. I told him in the game, if he blocks me again, me and him are going to have to fight.” 😭😭😭

Fred VanVleet on the ‘18-‘19 Raptors early in the season: “Kawhi wasn’t passing. It wasn’t a great vibe between everybody. It was like little pockets here and there, guys f*** with each other. We had to work it out.” On teams he played for that don’t have shot at the championship: “When you don’t have a chance, there’s some b**s*** going on. I might not throw that little one more. I might not run back. I might not play hurt.” [via. Unguarded Podcast]
