67-67 with 10 mins to go in the 4th quater. Chris Bosh is having a good game with 21 points and 7 rebounds and Mo-Pete also has 12 points.
We got the win and all but if we play this way on Sunday vs. the Knicks, then we'll be screwed.... Barely winning to a Bobcats team that had about 6 players injured and played a double overtime game the night before is not a good sign.... Hopefully we'll be better prepared on Sunday.... btw, anyone else notice that Felton looks almost exactly like Milt? (could this be the second coming of the great one??)

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting vcwannabe15:</div><div class="quote_post">Why do you guys think Milt Paclicio is good???? He sucks!</div> You sir, are not competent enough to watch basketball and comprehend how godly this player is. Saying Milt sucks is like saying Ron Artest has a hint of sanity left in him. You just don't do it.
I want a win against the Knicks more than anything just to shut them kids in the Knicks forum up. As for the game last night, the Raptors at least deserve applause for fighting out of a big deficit and playing some good transitional defense in the fourth. Chris Bosh though needs to get to the rim more and stop settling for the outside shot; his free throw attempts have gone down as of late. His quickness is his biggest advantage, and he'll need to use it. PS: Let's stop with the Milt thing folks. It was funny for a while but it's just getting repetitive. Not to mention how clueless a guest in the forum will be when he/she comes across posts like the one before mine.

So, are you saying it isn't okay to be happy that our team has won five straight games for the first time in two years? These "kids" in the Knick forum haven't said anything bad about you or your team, so please let's not start anything. Understand?
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting michiganave17:</div><div class="quote_post">i predict that the raps will lose by 13. they will take the knicks too lightly.</div> The Raptors taking a team lightly? Toronto is one of the last teams in the league that will take an opponent lightly.
lol that's true, we aren't really in the position to take anyone lightly, not like we're a winning team.

I didn't like it when some Raptors fans were touting playoffs when Toronto went on a 5-game win streak, and I don't like it now that Knicks fans are boldly claiming a playoff spot as theirs, even when their team has just four more wins than Atlanta. Last I checked, I didn't say anything bad about the Knicks. I just don't like the overhyped comments some are making, a sentiment I'm sure others share. The Raptors are coming into Sunday's game as the underdog and I'd always love to see the underdogs win. Friendly taunting, that's all. Prendre votre t?te de votre ?ne.

The Knicks beat teams like Phoenix, Dallas, and Cleveland on the road.

I?m sure many Knick fans will take offense to the term ?kids? many whom are older than you. So please, before you post, be cautious of whom you might offend. Thanks.
trash talking for the atlantic's bottom two teams...that's a first...but geez...ppl need to calm....people are taking this ish too literally. it's a game damn...but with that said, the raptors have a good chance at winning this game, cuz we're pretty ok at 1 o clock games...

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Locke:</div><div class="quote_post">The Knicks only beat the Cavs on the road, actually, and beat a fatigued Phoenix team on the end of a long road trip at home in triple overtime.</div> The Suns had two days rest before New York. This is the NBA; excuses like those don’t work. The Knicks beat a team listed at 19-11 plain and simple. Even a fatigued Suns team is an above-average team. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">They beat the Mavs in overtime at home.</div> Home or away, the Mavericks are still a tough team to beat. In fact, the Mavericks are 13-6 on the road and 13-4 at home. So, they’re almost as good a road team as they are a home team. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">In fact, in this six-game win streak by the Knicks, they've have five at home.</div> The Knicks were due to a long home stretch after playing 13 of their first 19 on the road with the stretch including two west coast trips. It doesn’t really matter who they play, though. The Knicks held their own against very good competition. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Bad teams have good streaks, and although I do think that the Knicks have the talent to make the playoffs and maybe even get to the second round, but until you're at the eighth seed, please do not predict playoffs, just yet.</div> I’m being realistic about the Knicks’ playoff chances. With the condition the east is in this year, if the Knicks continue to play this well on a consistent basis, they will be in the playoffs. That’s all I, and everyone else is saying. Whether or not they do is still in question.

I honestly don’t care that you want the Raptors to win – that’s one of your favorite teams. Why would I care if you want your favorite team to win?
