<div align="center"> . Anyways, expect a detailed preview for tomorrow's game.</font></font>[/b]</div>
What kind of first quarter was that? 39 points scored by the Sixers? I don't care how this team will do it, but the defense has been atrocious so far this season. The Raps have essentially lost the game not even 10 minutes into it. I'm too angry for words.
Raptors blew the game in the 4th Q. Charlie and Calderon need to start and Rose and Williams have to go to the bench.
Well we were kinda of down the whole game, so we didn't really blow it in the 4th, though we sucked. I think if we had come out stronger it could've tipped the scales in our favour. Great game by Charlie overall, great game by Bosh on the glass, and no one else really showed up. Calderon had a lot of turnovers today.
With AI guarding Calderon you knew that would happen AI does cause alot of steals and Claderon is in his first year in the NBA.
Anyone else feel like throwing up after seeing C-Webb blow by Bosh 3 times on defense? Despite his numbers i didn't feel like he had a great game. CV was amazing - i love the guy's energy on the floor - he always crashes the glass on offense too which is great. Still needs to work on D but anyways.... I think that if we get another strong performance from CV tomorrow we might be able to pull off the win ... We should definately juggle the starting lineup though .. Mike James running the offense is brutal.

I don't know why he kept jumping at Webber, get a hand up, no need to go flying at him. Then he was trying to blame his teammates for not giving him help defense, please.

i must admit charlie v is worth the prize of admission. anybody else think that james and rose can't play together? both are way too shot happy. right know i would package bonner, mo. pete and j.rose for anything. u know a lot of people were critical of altson last season for his trigger happiness but the only difference between he and j.rose is that j.rose has more friends in the league and the team willing to defend him.

IMO he is one of our leading scorers at the moment. I would like to see; J.Rose leave
Mo-Pete has been struggling for the past few games... he was better coming off the bench.. Calderon made a lot of mistakes in the game... i believe it was either miscommunications or just plain bad luck.. CV only needs to work on his defense and he will be set for years to come and if he continues to put up those #s for the past two games.. he is worth picking @ #7. How about Hoffa? lol he looked so lost. And Bonner is in the "sophomore slump"..
Hoffa looked rediculous! Picking up 2 quick fouls, rejected (BLOCKED) twice on the same possession and missed a layup, this guy's gottta go he's got no skills. Start Chris Bosh at Center and Charlie Villanueva at Power Forward from now on! And a lot of you are saying trade Jalen Rose, I actually thought he played well - 15 points with 0 fouls and 0 turnovers! Craptors losing streak continues!!!
jalen didnt lodge a stat in the turnover column, but he might as well have...he put up a couple typical ugly jalen shots. for the most part he was playing well though. posting up and driving. the thing that pisses me off though, is that he cant seem to hit an open jump shot to save his life.

new kid on the block here... im looking to be a main stay here on the raptors forum and post my 2cents... Raptors season has been a burden to watch in my opinion... other than Charlie V nothing has stood out to me that has caught my attention... Bosh has been slow off the gate again, I was expecting so much more from him this year and he looks a bit too mechanical out there... CV3 looks so fluid, he caught me by suprise, i never knew he had the dribble stop jumper in the arsenal... a real nice player, glad that he is working hard and proving the critics... oh how i miss Vince Carter already... anyways, it's going to be a long season for the Raptors, hopefully they land Rudy Gay on draftnight... get the huskies connection(Villaneuva and Gay) going
