Belal Muhammad ( Belal Muhammad ) shows solidarity for the people of Palestine after his big win at ACBJJ 22. “First of all, I want to say Alhamdulilah. My victory, my success only through Allah (SWT).” “When I’m given a platform, when I’m given a chance to go out there, all I want to do is bring attention to Palestine.” “Palestine, that’s the real fight. Any chance I get, I’m going to carry the colours. I’m going to represent them till I die, and InShaaAllah, one day, they will be free.” “Anytime you see me, just know I’m yelling, ‘Free Palestine!” A real champion, both inside and outside of his profession. ❤️🇵🇸

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.”

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.

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)

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.’”

“There’s no Phil Jackson without Michael Jordan. My Michael Jordan is Scottie Barnes.” In a recent Serbian interview/podcast, Darko Rajaković had a tremendous amount of praise and respect for his franchise player, Scottie Barnes. Darko described Scottie as a “young guy with a big heart. A great worker.” Darko says Scottie sees and plays basketball the way he envisions it himself.” Darko says he’s really grateful for coaching a player like Scottie, and says he’s “one of the very, very rare players throughout the NBA.” Lots of praise by the All-Star coach for his All-Star player. ❤️ 🫡 [via.

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]

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)

🤔 Adam Silver when asked what he would say to a Raptors fan regarding the ongoing investigation/stalled Kawhi to Toronto trade: “Just to clarify, we did not disapprove that trade. What happened was, the Clippers and the Raptors negotiated a trade. We just said to the Raptors, the extent there were to be any discipline, and I’m not forecasting that against Kawhi, that travels with the player.” “I think the issue here is, the Raptors acknowledging that they accept that the player, not them, but they could be subject to any potential discipline. It seems like the Raptors made a decision that we’d rather you wrap up this investigation, so we have full knowledge before this trade has consummated.” (Via. WSJ Events | 🔗:

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.” 😭😭😭

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on Kawhi Leonard returning to the Toronto Raptors, and what that could do for the growth of basketball in Toronto/Canada: “As long as I can remember, Toronto has loved the Raptors. The country’s loved the Raptors. I don’t think that’ll ever change, no matter who plays for them.” “Adding a guy like that to your roster, no matter where you’re from or what team you are, amplifies everything, your fanbase, your ability as a team on both ends of the floor.” “He’s a really good player. Toronto should be a good team next year for sure.” 🎤: William Lou

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]
