Norman Powell 26 Points Full Highlights (3/3/2020)
It turns out that Norman Powell is actually really good now, unlike previous years where he was just okay but Raptors fans were hyping him to high heaven. It’s too bad that, now that he’s a legitimately good player, Raptors fans seem to have stopped caring about him (I see the view counts on his…

Norman Powell is like the original success story of the Masai-era Raptors. They drafted him super late in the draft and he quickly developed into a serviceable player. After some ups and downs in his career, Powell is solidly on the “up” side of the equation this season, but his success has been overshadowed by…

In the aftermath of the Raptors’ (good team) loss to the Hornets (very not good team), I decide to infiltrate their internet-based hideouts to capture some RAW, UNFILTERED emotion from crushed Raptors fans. Keep in mind that the following quotes are UNEDITED and TOTALLY RAW. I didn’t even correct their spelling mistakes. That’s how you…

OFFICIAL DTB REMINDER: In 2015, the Milwaukee Bucks traded Norman Powell and a first round pick in exchange for Greivis Vasquez.

If the season ended today, Norman Powell wouldn’t be in the illustrious 50/40/90 club. However, he would be in the slightly less illustrious 50/40/80 club thanks to his 50.8% shooting from the field, 40.8% shooting from three, and 83.1% from the free throw line. Oh yeah, and he’s scoring 15 PPG per game, which I…

Norman Powell has finally developed into something roughly resembling the player that many Raptors fans thought he could be for so long. He’s averaging a cool 15 points per game, playing a big role on a good team. But Raptors fans are too busy getting distracted by all the shiny new toys on their roster…

Is this it? Is it really happening? Is Norman Powell finally becoming a consistent contributor who can be counted on to support the Raptors’ winning efforts on a game-to-game basis? Or has years of eating nothing but Hot Pockets and Pop-Tarts modified my brain chemistry so severely that my thoughts have become nothing more than…
