Bruno Caboclo tentatively approached his veteran teammate in the locker room. “Hey Serge. I need advice from you.” Serge smiled warmly at his young, shy teammate. “Of course. It is my duty to guide you through the challenges in your life.” “I’m in the NBA four years now and I still can’t get playing time,”…

Serge Ibaka 21 Points Full Highlights (12/8/2017)
Serge “Ibaka Gaijin” Ibaka was getting called out a little bit by Jack Armstrong on the Raptors broadcast for not always bringing 100% effort, echoing the sentiments of some Raptors fans I have secretively observed on the internet in their native habitats. Maybe he’s getting comfy with his brand new contract where he gets paid…

I know that this is a Serge Ibaka video and I’m supposed to write a description about Serge Ibaka. But I don’t want to write about Serge Ibaka. I want to write about Raptors commentator Matt Devlin and how he turns every made three-pointer into a geography quiz. We get it, dude. You know the…

I’m not going to sit here and write a eulogy for this era of the Raptors. Everyone seems to think that they’re going to blow it up after this, that they’re going to trade away major pieces in a firesale and start over with Bruno Caboclo at the helm (alright I doubt anyone thinks that…

I am almost too morose to say anything about Serge Ibaka’s performance tonight. Despite his only-slightly-above-average statline, he dominated the Bucks early and set the tone for the rest of the game. When he rejected Beasley’s layup at did his celebratory gestures for the crowd, I could feel the anger emanating from the Bucks’ bench….

Serge Ibaka showed up. DeMar DeRozan kinda showed up. And that was it for the Raptors. On a scale of 1-10, with 1 being “not perturbed at all” and 10 being “bootyblasted”, how mad at Dwayne Casey are Raptors fans right now? Based on what I’m seeing on social media, I’m going with 8-“Murderously enraged”…

Where did Serge Ibaka’s shot-blocking go? It’s still there, a little bit, but he now hardly resembles the dude who, once upon a time, blocked almost 4 shots a game. Yes, I am aware of the conspiracy theory regarding Ibaka and his age. Yes, I realize that it does nicely explain his earlier-than-expected statistical decline….

The Raptors are going to make the playoffs. That much we know. They could lose most of the rest of their games and still make the 8th seed. Kyle Lowry is injured. We know that as well. He’s not coming back until the playoffs. Combine those two things. Are you thinking what I’m thinking? That’s…

The Sergeballu LaMu Sayonga Loom Walahas Jonas Hugo Ibaka experiment was a failure in Orlando. Not Sergeballu’s fault, really, short of LeBron, there wasn’t much that was going to get that team into the playoffs. So the Magic did the right thing and traded him to a team that is poised to not only make…

The Magic are apparently feeling some buyer’s regret regarding Serge Ibaka, with rumors claiming that they are looking to trade him. Makes sense, unlike most of their ideas. They made the initial trade for him as a win-now kind of move, they aren’t winning now, so he doesn’t really have a purpose on the roster….
