    As many Raptor fans know, quite a few players have set career highs in certain categories over the years when facing Toronto. Just a few examples:

    1/22/06: Kobe Bryant - 81 points
    3/20/05: LeBron James - 56 points
    4/11/04: Jamal Crawford - 50 points (also has a career high of 11 rebounds against the Raptors)

    I'm also pretty sure Eddy Curry had one of the best games of his career against Toronto, but I'm not sure of the exact stats. Their's probably a few more players I'm forgetting. If you know of anymore, add on.

    This wouldn't have happened if the Raps kept Milt. MP3 would have locked Kobe DOWN with his hall of fame defense...

    True, just a moronic decision to let a player of his caliber leave for nothing.

    Guys, the Milt thing isn't funny anymore (and in my opinion it never was) so please stop. It's getting real old. I come to this site to read quality posts, please stop wasting my time with this garbage.

    I'm sorry but I'm getting really tired of it.

    Milt Hater...

    Seriously though, tonight its getting a little out of hand bacause of Kobe scoring 81 but usually its not bad. Theres probably not more than one Milt joke every day on an average day here.

    Whatever, Milt still rocks, he shut down Iverson to 41 points, and hit a big layup in the game.

    I'm thinking we should change that quote on our thread from "Exit Carter.... Enter Bosh" to "Want a career night? Play the Raptors".... seriously, I think we should..... okay, maybe I'm not THAT serious, but I still wouldn't be against it....

    Anyways, I was always wondering why we make guys like Tyrone Lue, Mike Dunleavy, Eddy Curry and Lee Nailon look like all-stars, and now I know..... we suck.......

    Ohhh dear I miss you Milt. Let's just say things would've been different if we had kept him.

    Guys, seriously, my condolences on tonight's game.....

    To be up by 18 in 4 minutes into the 3rd quarter and lose by 18, hurts, a lot.

    Hey, us Laker fans had a pretty bad night against the Kings that one day where we were up by 5 with 35 secs and lost in OT, I'm sure you guys are feeling the same way tonight.

    Atleast you guys watched a historic night, something good comes from the L =)
