Built Ford Tough Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Lowry back for this one, although Calderon will still be starting. I really, really hope that Lowry is fully healthy this time and plays like he was at the beginning of the year (not necessarily those gaudy numbers, but just the way he was playing) because, as much as I like how Calderon has played filling in for Lowry, I really don't like all the talk about Calderon starting for the year, Lowry being on the trade block instead of Calderon, etc...

DunkinDerozan Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 Glad Lowry will be back. Time to get back to winning again tonight! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Nice first half for Lowry. I believe they were down 19-11 when he checked in and they finished the rest of the half on a 37-23 run. He played smart ball, didn't take any stupid risks or shots and, my personal favourite, was playing physical, pressure defense. He definitely outplayed Calderon in that half. Hopefully this is how he will play from here on out, but I'm going to need to see more than 10 minutes before I can say anything one way or the other. Aside from that, all you really need to know about the first half was that Aaron Gray gave the end of the first interview. Yeah, this has been ugly.

DunkinDerozan Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 First quarter was ugly. I thought they played a good second quarter though. Demar has done a great job of getting to the line Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Casey takes out Ed Davis to matchup with the Hornets going small, despite the fact that the Raptors were vastly outplaying them, and New Orleans proceeds to cut the lead from 13 to 5. Typical Raptors 4th quarter. Go away from what is working and give up a lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 I love watching Rivers. He does everything backwards. Two men all over me? Jack it up!Wide open layup? Kick it out to a covered teammate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Raptors epic 4th quarter meltdown #3401976 complete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Built Ford Tough Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Don't know how the Raptors managed to pull out the win by looking at the box score: http://i1284.photobucket.com/albums/a577/bobafett8/ScreenShot2012-12-28at74640PM_zps8f14193a.png Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Check my Stats Posted December 29, 2012 Report Share Posted December 29, 2012 Alan Anderson is my least favourite Raptor ever. Lowry looked awesome at the times I was able to watch (was in and out all night). I'm glad he responded so well to coming off the bench - they must have told him that this was still his team, he just needs to slow it down, and play his game. He is still our best player (says more about our team than him, unfortunately), and he just needs to let the game come to him. That three he had blocked was just brutal, and is exactly what he was doing right before his injury that had people going bananas. He needs to be attacking, and finding open shooters, not settling for contested threes, especially late in a close game. Side note: nice to see Demar getting some [expletive]ing calls! There's just literally no in between, its either no calls, or 10+ FT attempts, sadly it has been the first one more often. Would love to meet somewhere in the middle refs.
