""Everything is about 'we over me,'" said 905 head coach Drew Jones on Friday after his team's record-tying victory. "That's the last slide these guys see in every single one of our film sessions. And I think offensively and defensively, they trust that.""
""(the 905) trust me with the ball at the end of the game, they trust I'm gonna make the right play. Sometimes it's not even shooting the ball, sometimes it might be the pass. But tonight, (Capital City) backed off from me and I felt the space to be able to get the shot off.""
""When you also feel the offence kind of being stagnant, then as a point guard, I feel like you gotta be more aggressive.""
Raptors 905 opened the season 10-0, tying the best start in G League Tip-Off tournament history. The team emphasizes a 'we over me' mindset that appears on every film session slide and fosters offensive and defensive trust. In a 124-120 win over Capital City Go-Go, A.J. Lawson and Alijah Martin combined for over half of the team's offense while Chucky Hepburn delivered a game-sealing three after dishing a team-high 11 assists despite poor shooting. Hepburn and the coaching staff described the need for aggression when the offense stagnates and credited competitive character and shared scoring responsibility.
