    Good performance by everyone. Controlling start to finish. Very impressive consider we were missing our three biggest players.</p>

    Edit: one more thing, who are these idiots booing because we won't go for the pizza when we're up 20? Have some class, and if you're that hard up for one slice, don't blow your dollars on basketball tickets. Not only that but you're booing the home town team which just won by 20 points. I should mail you people a pizza slice so you can stick it up your ...</p>

    Ahahah I found it a little comical when the fans were booing and when they were chanting pizza while we were playing defense, the Raptor players and staff had a smile on their faces as well. Anyways this was a great win for the Raptors with 3 key guys out of the starting lineup, kindof reminds me of last season when Bosh and Ford were out and it really allowed the team to build chemistry and confidence amonst each other.

    Calderon had a great game 12pts, 9ast, 7rbs but it really was a team effort for the victory as everyone got involved as we had 48 bench points and 6 players in double digit scoring.</p>

    Sorry about the lack of a game thread. This exam schedule's a bitch (only one more week...) and I figured we'd have more than one day off after a back-to-back. The statsheet certainly looks impressive. Humphries stepped up, Joey Graham did his best Jamario Moon impersonation and Calderon, Delfino, and Kapono seemed to continue their strong play. Then again it is the Bobcats.

    a13x, I'm guessing those were corporate fans that sit in the front rows. ACC fans can be dumbasses at times.</p>

    I didn't think the players and management took the booing to heart. It was a tongue-in-cheek kinda thing. Everybody was laughing, I think the fans were laughing too.</p>

    I would want the pizza too, why not? Just in case the raptors hadn't noticed. I don't think any of hte players took the booing to heart either. The fans aren't gonna go home grouchy, i'm sure it was all just in good fun.</p>

    I think the booing was pretty innocent and harmless, from a fans POV, they don't give a shit about not running up the score. Why should they? They'll never face the opposing players again.</p>

    Decent game though. I find it hard to call it a great game because I think the team should dominate in games like this but you've gotta give Smitch and co. credit for pulling one out without the big guys.</p>

    Funny thing though, there was this guy who looked just like Joey Graham out there last night. I guess we won't if it was Joey Graham unitl he comes out and has a crappy game against the Suns.</p>

    I gotta give credit where credit's due: Sam Mitchell's done a good coaching job ever since Ford went down and the injuries began piling up.</p>
