*Swish* Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Hope to see my Raptors put up a good fight. It's good we are at home. I think it will give us some momentum. Really want them to be aggressive just like last game. Excited to see Ed Davis' second game. DeRozan, Weems, Bargnani and Calderon all have to shoot lights out to beat this team.

Built Ford Tough Posted December 3, 2010 Report Share Posted December 3, 2010 Raptors better not steal this game without Durant in the lineup (he is out, right?). Hopefully Westbrook completely dominates Calderon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Westbrook vs. Calderon has been a fun matchup so far during the first 8 minutes tonight. Both doing a nice job of breaking the defense down to create open looks for their teammates, while contributing with their own offense as well. Very questionable charge on Weems there. Collison was above the restricted area, but he definitely looked like he wasn't set. Tough call, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moeroadkill Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 (edited) yea that was a block imo weems was in the air and collison was still slidingpassing the ball well 7 assists on 10 makes lets see if we keep it up Edited December 4, 2010 by MoeRoadKill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Pretty entertaining 1st quarter from both teams. Watching Westbrook slicing through the Raptors defense was very enjoyable (at least from a fans perspective) and Ibaka had a very impressive block on DeRozan. The Raptors had quite a few nice plays of their own with the Calderon/Johnson oop, DeRozan spinning past Harden, hanging in the air and finishing around Collison and some nice step backs and fadeaways from Bargnani. Raptors doing a fantastic job on the glass so far, though. They've outrebounded the Thunder 14-6 so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 is bayless balding? I think he is. I've noticed it a couple of times and wondered about it myself. It is good to see Mo Pete back on the floor in the ACC. I really enjoyed his time in Toronto and thought his final year in Toronto was handled really poorly. I was furious to see Colangelo going and and giving Kapono that contract instead of even thinking about re-signing Peterson. I know he is basically done as a productive player, but it is still nice to see him on the floor again. PS: James Harden's beard = Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Calderon has come out great so far in the 2nd. Nice steal on Westbrook to lead to a wide open dunk for Weems and he had a bullet of a pass to Jonson down low that resulted in a foul. 10 assists for him already and unlike the other night (Boston game, I think) they have been noticeable assists. Sloppy play from OKC so far, though. That was a brutal turnover to lead to the Young Gunz ally-oop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moeroadkill Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 love seeing harden aggressive no matter what the outcome israps shooting 60% (close enough) thought the would of cooled down but they haven't defense gotta step up soon or else they are gonna run away W here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Interesting decision from Brooks to put Collison on Kleiza and Sefolosha on Bargnani. Teams have ahd success with wing players on Bargs before, so it could be worth a shot. I would like to see the Raptors give Kleiza the ball in this situation a bit too, assuming the Thunder keep the matchup going. He isn't the best at creating his shot, but he can certainly take Collison off of the bounce, especially if he draws him out towards the three point line.

Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 were we just playing a 2-3 zone? It looked more like a matchup zone where they would keep somebody on Bargnani at all times but the other 4 were in a zone. It was really poorly executed, though as Barbosa was left wide open. Nice outlet from DeRozan to Bayless after the Westbrook turnover. The Thunder definitely look tired right now and are starting to play very poorly. They are forcing things on offense that is resulting in turnovers or they are chucking up jumpers early in the clock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Thunder's small ball lineup is getting abused down low by Johnson and Bargnani. The mobility on the perimeter is nice and all, but they are giving up way too much size. Bargnani with 22/12. Raptors have lookd absolutely amazing in the 2nd half of this game, though. This is some of the best ball I've seen them play this year, right up there with the Boston game that they won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Built Ford Tough Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 (edited) DAMN! I cant believe the Raps are going to win that game!!!! WOOOOOHOOOO #1 pick is FAAAAAAAR AWAY Don't celebrate too early. The Raptors lead dwindled from 14 to 9 in about 45 seconds. Also, you realize the Raptors are only about 2 or 3 games out of last place in the East, right? They are currently in 8th, but the bottom half of the East is completely bunched together. Nevermind about my first point. Barbosa hit two dagger jumpers to seal the game. Edited December 4, 2010 by Built Ford Tough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owner Real Deal Posted December 4, 2010 Author Owner Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Bargs has such a quick release on that back-to-the-basket fade. I don't even see how he can turn around that fast and line up his shot, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headliner Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 Andrea has impressed me thus far this season. He has scored 20 or more points in 14 out of 19 games this season. My personally opinion I don’t think he gets enough touches because it just seems that way when he plays. I think the team needs to do a better job of getting him the ball especially when he is rolling. But what impressed me the most about this game was his 12 rebounds which is great to see him do.
