Sounds like you're just having a relapse after being NBA-deprived in the off-season :D.
Honestly, watching the current Warriors play I can't help but think that Durant is now their best player by far. Makes me think that maybe the others are just a tad overrated due to playing with so many good pieces. Too early to tell for sure, of course.

i don't think the Raptors//Kings result is surprising. Raptors had 2 rookie starters. Gay hates that the Raptors got better when they traded him and always plays the game of his life against the Raptors. Gay did not play the previous game so he was well rested. Derozan has been shooting great despite all defenses focusing on him because Lowry and Carroll are not shooting well. Sooner or later, Derozan was not going to shoot 55% for 35 points when 3 guys are draped all over him every time he enters the key.
Have the Raptors beaten the Kings since they traded Gay to them?

I feel like it is leaky for 2 major reasons: 1. They are lazy especially when they have a big lead. 2. They are impatient and sloppy on offense. They force shit too much that results in a breakaway going the other way.
Brandon Ingram is so weak. It's funny watching him try to take people off the dribble, he gets bodied out every time and ends up getting ripped, stopped, or tossing up a wild layup.
He's REALLY gotta hit the weight room because he's significantly less effective purely because he's not strong right now. Otherwise he's been quite solid.
