Receipts

What the room said about Norman Powell, verbatim: the highest-scoring comments in each class.

Exhibit 01Negative.MIL flair
Norman Powell, and everybody else on that Raptors team. He was still getting NBA offers when he left but it’s probably the worst playoff performance I’ve ever seen from a starter, and I had to watch 2025 Kyle Kuzma.
