Raptors couldve had this success had Dwayne Casey just listened to Nick Nurse. That's a huge reason why he got replaced by Nick Nurse. Nick had a plan ready for Lebron that year, and Dwayne Casey stubbornly ignored him. When Nick Nurse was doing his exit interview with Masai he showed him how he would've adjusted to defending LeBron along with a more potent offence. Dwayne Casey was stagnant in his coaching, refused to adapt on the fly. Nick Nurse is open to trying something new if a previous adjustment wasnt working. Forever grateful for Nick Nurse. Go raps.
@@kannanraheem9898 there were a few reports when everyone was wondering how Masai could fire Casey after winning coach of the year and having the best record in franchise history, ill try finding em but that was a longgggg time ago. It makes sense too when you look at how Nurse adjusts in every playoff game.
Would love to see Fred stay longer too tbh. Would be a cool narrative if he surpasses what Kyle has done for the raptors one day. But I guess we'll see. 🤔
Staying power. When a coach is synonymous with a team. When players are traded first and firing the Head Coach is the last thing the Front Office would do. Spo to the Heat. Pop to the Spurs. Kerr to the Warriors. Untouchable unless something drastic happens. Maybe Nurse already has that with Toronto.
That list should be a lot longer, but, it's no surprise those listed are arguably the only great organizations in the league top to bottom (including Raptors).
Exactly. The wall defense against Giannis and the box and 1 against Steph were not really done back then. Nurse and the Raptors did it first and then the league followed because it worked.
@@jakep1979 Walton won 35 and 37 games in both seasons, bron joined the last one and was injured for most of that season I believe, so I wouldn’t say he got him replaced. Blatt wasn’t a coach he just had star power so he looked good, and the coaches through his first 7 seasons were carried by the man himself! Go look at those rosters and tell me different. Also it’s the GM that ultimately make those choices to begin with.
I watch these high school coaches spend so much time on defense and running plays meanwhile none of their kids can shoot or finish at all. Have to be able to crawl before you can walk.
I feel for the Raps and the Spurs who are just as great in terms of culture, but, there are a lot of great locations that don't get players. Our most talented teams began when Wade was drafted, as LeBron, Shaq and Bosh came for Wade... As did Jimmy. Location and tax breaks are obviously a decent cherry on top, but, Miami earns their rep, and Pat, Spo, Wade, and Haslem (for great undrafted talent) are as good as a recruiting team as there is in the NBA.
Raptors are retooling, getting used to playing at home again, and also getting used to playing without Lowry, so no shock they aren't doing well yet, but give it time lol
God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). We’re not sinners because we sin, but rather we sin because we’re sinners. Sin is the nature of our flesh that we are born with due to the sin of Adam in the garden. For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless. We’ve all sinned (Romans 3:23), and the the law demands death for those who sin (Romans 6:23). God is righteous, so He must punish our sin, which is what He did through His Son Jesus Christ on the cross. Jesus is Holy and sinless, yet He received our sin when He died on the cross, so that we can be righteous before God (2 Corinthians 5:21). When He died on the cross, He said “It is finished” (John 19:30), which means He paid the full price for all of your sins (past, present, and future) to be forgiven. He was buried and rose again from the dead. God will forgive anybody who puts their full trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We aren’t saved based on our good deeds, but only by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9). His precious blood that He shed is the only reason why we can be forgiven of our sins (Hebrews 9:22). If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then you’ll be saved (Romans 10:9). You are born-again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and are not only legally justified before God, but also are accredited His righteous (Romans 4:24). Believers live for Christ now, so get to know Him through His Word. I recommend reading the book of Romans and the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), and watching Pastor Joseph Prince’s online sermons!!
What’s funny is people hate religion because of people like you. You think you’re saving people but you’re actually doing the opposite. What a paradox😆
If you’re a longtime raps fan, you’ll know this is false. Casey set the discipline for the raptors winning culture, but his lack of offensive flexibility wouldn’t get them past the warriors in the finals even with kawhi.
You realize in the last 8 years they've missed the playoffs once... which was last year.... And it took them having to play in Florida for their home games to make that happen... You know that right? smh

as good as Dwayne Casey was as a coach until… well we all know what happened… he had to go. was time for a change and it paid off.
Casey wouldn't let Siakam ball handle. Siakam would've never evolved.
As the Raptors rebuild, Nick Nurse may be the only person from the championship team that'll still be there in 5+ years.

I wanna talk to alot more coaches
First head coach in Raptors history to not get fired right after winning coach of the year..
Casey got fired the same offseason that he won coach of the year
Lebron isn't called a 'coach killer' for a reason. He can get his own coaches fired and other team coaches fired.
Same with Mike brown
