Better be a win, unfortunately it is a back to back on the road so it could be closer than it should.

Orlando because how they aren't clicking right now, they rely so much on their 3 point shooting so you hope you catch them cold a couple games. Cavaliers I wouldn't mind too, the only team I think that would sweep us no problem is the Celtics, I expect them to win the East again especially if Sheed can shoot like he did yesterday

Vescey is an idiot. Anyways, getting Bynum for Bosh would be a fantastic way to save face rather than lose him for nothing. Though he and Bargnani would be the worst rebounding frontcourt ever.

Komisarek can't be any worse at basketball than he is at hockey.

Raptors have won the game so far if you discount the first 2 and a half minutes

Hedo has been nowhere to be found, Bosh and Bargs are doing their thing but we need that 3rd guy. That 10-0 run they gave up right off the bat is what is going to cost us, we can't overcome that IMO. The Celtics get away with so much though in terms of fouls. Perkins should have fouled out already.

Celtics defense is always tough for us to overcome. They consistently cause us fits, their offense only has to be average for them to win. I am expecting another loss, but with the way we have been playing we can afford a loss to a superior team. A win however would be huge and put us in a tie with the Heat.

I think VC is having trouble adopting the role of a facilitator, similar to what Hedo was for them. Kinda what RD is saying. I definitely think this team has the talent to get all the way, but they need to sort a lot of stuff out on the court. They were right in not wanting to give Hedo the money the Raptors did, he is definitely not worth it long term especially with them money they already have tied long term into other players.

K/D is 1.35 I think. Mainly stuck between what I am trying to do, getting really bored of a lot of stuff. Been playing with the nubtube alot lately lol.

Ya I agree with Warren, you can't win when your big man is rebounding for two positions worth, let's face it Shard isn't getting the boards that a typical PF would, Shard is a SF. Maybe not Bass, maybe Gortat (idk how D12 plays the pick and roll, could either of these guys play PF? Idk just saying...). But it is just a shooting slump IMO, when a team takes as many threes as Orlando does, and they aren't falling, you can't really expect to win. That is the problem with a team that lives and dies by the three. But IMO, long term, you guys need an actual PF to win. Maybe that Anderson guy should get more run at the PF spot.

We need more Raptors fans here, we only have like 4.

WOOOO I haven't fist pumped that hard in a long time, I was wondering wtf Bosh was gonna do then AND1 BABY!

I go with Predator-Harrier-Pavelow and I have a 24 killstreak. My Harrier is never good enough to get me up to a Chopper Gunner or AC130. Also there is no single best gun in the game, it is purely based on preference. You could argue the FAMAS is the best, or the M16, or ACR. Stopping power I agree is important but some people don't need it, not everyone does. Just practice the game, to start just test [expletive] out, you will quickly learn what you like best.

Raps are playing really careless and sloppy so far, especially Bosh, he has like 3 turnovers already. The 76ers get down the floor really fast, but they take a lot of jumpers for the quality of shooters their players really are. Iggy, Thad and AI shouldn't be out camping jumpers IMO.

Bargnani is officially the worst officiated player in the NBA. He never gets a break. He made an aggressive play but no way he hit AI there. And that had to be a goaltend.

This better be a win, don't let me down Raptors. Anxious to watch another game, this is the first string of games I have been able to watch without working keep the win streak going. Co-sign the Iggy notion lol. He would be dirty alongside Bosh. EDIT: Damnit when did Lou come back? I could see him going off tonight.

I feel like they actually care now. Before watching it felt like no one really gave a [expletive] besides Bosh, but now guys actually get mad when there is a defensive break down. Bargnani has been playing well, I feel like as Bargnani goes we go, he is definitely the x-factor for this team because he needs to be able to score as our second option offensively on a consistent basis. Also good looks on that Reggie thing, I wanted Reggie in the lineup just to see the intensity he could instill in our players and hopefully make us a harder working team. But Amir has stepped in nicely for us.

I agree the UMP is studly. Also I don't suggest using a shotty of the bat, also I suggest using Stopping Power, add strength to your bullets. Make sure you stick to walls and [expletive], always walk so you know what is behind you. If you run out in the wide open you are almost sure to just get picked off. There is a lot of camping in the game I would say, especially in deathmatch, and honestly it is gonna be hard off the bat. You might struggle but you will learn opponents typical tendencies, it is definitely not an easy game IMO. Once you learn the maps and what guns you like, you will improve quickly. Just try out things, don't worry so much about how you do at first. I also suggest maybe using a silencer on your gun at first as well, Bling allows two attachments so you can have a dot and a silencer, this is something I would suggest unless you are particularly good without a scope. Also I don't think that campaign emulates what online is like at all, you will learn the controls better playing campaign, but online will still be hard at first because everyone you are playing is familiar with the maps and know the spots and camp. It is a good game though, it is a lot of fun, but the camping can get annoying, like I said just don't go running out into the wide open where there is a lot of places to get shot from. Don't sprint around corners too much because if you do then you run into someone you won't get your aim out in time. Just practice makes perfect I guess lol.

I would only move Bosh for a package littered with picks and one building block player. The Jazz are a team I might contact because of that Knicks pick but I don't know what they could add to that. Either way I don't want Bosh traded because I know we aren't going to be able to get equal value, which really is a shame. BC has already said he won't move Bosh, he said he will move Bosh if Bosh wants to leave but also wants the extra money (from his bird years) in a s&t. Otherwise he said, in an interview if I remember correctly, he will allow Bosh to leave. Of course this could be a smokescreen, but unless a crazy good deal came along I doubt Bosh is on the move. I agree with BFT that any team taking Bosh would have to take one or two bad contracts alongside him. Wow after looking at it, I had no idea Brooks was getting 18 PPG, he is putting up some fantastic stats. Maybe a potential deal could get struck lol.

I doubt Kobe could top the 36 or whatever it was that he averaged a few years ago. I mean he would have to take like 40 shots a game to average 50, that is just dumb to even suggest. He could push for 40, but no chance at 50 for a perimeter player.

Wow Boozer is getting traded for nothing? I would think he would have some sort of value, he is still a great rebounder and can give you 20 on any given night. Heat are a team that should be making a push for him. Would be a good deal for Dallas since they aren't really giving anything of value.

Nice move but this won't make them particularly better IMO. He probably isn't that much better than Chalmers since Alston will be used primarily as a spot up shooter, no way will he alleviate the pressure of Wade, Wade should continue to hold the ball the majority of the time. He is definitely better than Arroyo though lol. No move is gonna keep the Raptors from taking the 5 seed

I definitely think we need a better wing, specifically a starting SG. Right now I think our wing rotation is one of the weakest parts of our team, Belli is so inconsistent and Wright and Weems seem to forget what they are in the game for at times and try to be catalysts offensively. Someone like Battier (just an example) is a guy we need on the wing, whether we are able to obtain one is something I don't know. I completely agree with the Amir Johnson thing you said, he is definitely the most surprising. He typically plays well within himself (more than can be said for the majority of our bench) and does what he does best which is hustle and rebound. He has gotten better at not taking dumb fouls, he has been a really solid contributor in the absence of Reggie all year (still can't believe it takes half a season to recover from a sprained foot). But like I said, as much as I am in favour of developing Demar and getting him minutes, we need a guy who can start and end games for us instead of this two PG backcourt. Demar could arguably be the worst starting 2 in the entire NBA... I think we could get him his 15 minutes Triano gives him, coming off the bench. Wright shouldn't get any time and Weems and Marco could get garbage minutes. BC should be hunting for a SG, someone like Salmons would be nice I think....

Why do you post beer reviews lol.

Pretty scabby win. Either way, 2 straight wins against upper echelon teams. Doesn't matter how you do it I suppose, as long as you do it. Honestly can't believe we are .500, wait until our schedule lightens up again in a couple weeks, things are looking good in Raptorland
