Where do you start talking about this one as Toronto Raptors lead man Nick Nurse got his pocket picked and you can't tell me the raptors were not ready to feel the wrath of both Spurs Nation and DeMar Derozan (pictured right) . Well when the smoke cleared the Dinosaurs didn't want that smoke as they get the NBA on TNT Thursday Smack down as Alamo City Pro Hoops goes 125-107 and it wasn't that close.Behind balances act of LaMarcus Alrdige's team-high 23 points and DeMar DeRozan's triple double of 21 points, fourteen boards and eleven helpers the Raptors were never in this one. Extra fuel to the Spurs thoughts as Spurs lead man Gregg Popovich wanted this more than the players believe that as did R.C. Buford.
Bryn Forbes of #SpartyDawg Fame East Lansing, Michigan U Hoops added 20 with former Colorado Buffs standout Derrick White with 19 and UConn Huskies Freshman one and done Rudy Gay chipping in with 13 as everyone was on board helping DeMar in his feelings.
As for both Kawhi Loenard (21 pts) and Danny Green (0-6 3pt FG 0 pts) they have had better nights. Serge Ibaka had 14 points and grabbed six boards as that Raptors Bench help Toronto avoid a 40-piece entree with the San Antonio Riverwalk and DeMar's Feelings as sides and no churros I might add.
Toronto moves on falling to 28-12 while the Spurs move to 22-17 and they have to bring that kind of energy every contest with both DeMar and L-Train in the lead to be a hand full for opposing teams!
