Raptors vs. Denver Channel 30 TSN GameTime 9:00 Currently TOR 6 DEN 4 First Q, 9:15 remaining. Starters: TJ, Jones, Parker, Bosh, Garbajosa Miller, JR Smith, Melo, Najera, Camby I think Fever is making an official thread, but I'm not sure, I just felt like a getting a thread in the forum while the game is on.
Well he has been hitting his deep 2s, so maybe the NBA 3 point line is just out of his range. Kind of like Bonner 2 years ago. Or Bosh last year (unlike this year).
Give him a year. Calderon had to go through a similar adjustment, after being a great 3 pt. shooter in Europe.

What the hell is with our lineup? When did: Joey Graham, Rasho, Calderon, Bargnani & Mo pete become acceptable?
The point of having a deep roster is so that you can balance out the weak with the strong and never really lose a step. Guess Mitchell never really understood that.
Seriously, we're stuck 10 points right now becaue Mitchell put that horrible lineup on the court for about 5-7 minutes. Joey Graham sucks and should never see a basketball court.
<div class="quote_poster">deception Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">tj ford is dominating</div> Yea he is playing quite well. He played the transition well with hs past to Bosh. Denver is getting offensive boards very well, which is understandable considering they have like 6 big men. Even Melo their SF is a good rebounder. lol someone for Denver missed a dunk.

Watch out Scott Skiles?</div> yea, crazy stats, I didn't even realise he had that many. I don't even expect anyone but Nash to do that kind of thing. lol @ Chuck Swirsk's comment on Fred Jones should take Garbajosa out for dinner. Most commentators don't say that kind of thing. Bosh missed a dunk.
<div class="quote_poster">Fever Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">Thanks for the thread Skip. To whoever wants Calderon to start over TJ, meet me in the basement!</div> You're welcome Fever, I actually thought you were making one, because I saw your name in the forum and there was no thread. Denver 72 Toronto 62 3rd Q with 8:30 left Camby with a hard foul as Bosh spins past him on a post up. (Would have had a nice jam) A Chris Humphries appearance, I've liked what I've seen. 2 consecutive dunks and then gets a trip to the foul line. 15 footer by Ford, another dunk by Humphries on the fast break. Ford another 15 footer from the side. Nice offensive board by humphries, past Najera. Garbs with another deep 2.
<div class="quote_poster">deception Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">the raps look tired</div> I forgot this game was the 2nd of back to backs. It is almost at the point of not winning. Denver 113 Tor 105. With 1:25 left in the 4th. Garbs disproved my theory about not capable of hitting 3s. Bad call on Najera's box out I think. Najera had proper positioning, and maybe gave a little shove.
I think it's Leo Rautins presence that gets Chuck Swirsky to badmouth the opponent like an idiot. That's a couple games where I felt he's been doing it, while the Raps would be doing much worse on the other end. Ugly game.
