tonight at 10 pm etc .. the Toronto Raptors start their west coast road trip when they play the portland trail blazers ... Key Matchups : <font color="DarkRed">Vince Carter vs Bonzi Wells </font> http://mrsamba.jeeran.com/dodoooooooooo.JPG"> It Keys to Win : 1- Great Start : being on the road ( 0-2 ) .. the Raptors MUST have a good start to have a chance at getting the victory .. all players must contirbute offensivly , JYD and AD should keep up the work at the glass ! 2- Defense 48 Mins : Again .. defense is the key to success for this team .. playing good defense could create easy chances for the Raptors to score at the other end the game starts at 10 pm .. and very likely .. Magneke Bateer or Moiso will see good amount of time off the bench ! see ya after the game .. Go Raps Go
raptors r down 40 - 46 at half time .. Vince is skooling Sheed and leading the way with 19 first half points .. AD is solid at the glass with 8 I guess .. and JYD with 5 already ... not good defense tho from the raptors .. but the offense is better than usual .. we must have a run at the begging of the third Quorter to keep every thing in control ..
Yeah VC played big, but check out the box score; http://www.nba.com/games/20031111/TORPOR/boxscore.html Notice how balanced Portland's scoring was, everyone pitched it. Once again the Blazers prove that unselfish play wins games.
I have to agree. That the Raptors were in this game is thanks to Mr. Air Canada. One guy isn't going to win through the season though, no matter how much we pray. Either someone steps up for the raptors (there's room for a few players to step up at the moment) or a trade needs to be made for another PLAYER. Not a role player but a PLAYER. A guy who will make opposing teams wonder who to cover. If the Raptors can learn the lesson and play as a team then this loss will not have been in vain and something will have been accomplished other than Vince getting a workout. Good job by Bosh BTW (edit) I might be over reacting a bit. Looking at the Box Score I see that Antonio was a point away from a double double. Mo-Pete can do more (of course) but wasn't bad (well not horrible) Alvin needs to be looked at and the Dog shouldn't have been in there that long as it doesn't look like he did anything worthwhile. Anyway, more people contributed than I thought at first but still without Vince being vinsane this game wouldn't have even been close. Also can we have mighty mouse back? The weed laws are pretty lax here and we'd be happy to have a PG that can at least put weight on both feet.
lammond murray is a menace to the raptors...hes been absolute SHlT all year...hes shooting 28% and he gets the ball to win the game? crap! absolute crap! we had a chance to win the game, and we let lammond miss ANOTHER shot. alvin is hurting us too...hate to say it because hes one of my fav raptors...but his ankles are killing us...we need a healthy alvin
Lamond 'The new blackhole' Murray missed a shot to go into overtime. PS: Voshon was the old blackhole.
at least vochon hit shots and played well...murray is a liability on the floor. id take vochon over lammond any day of the week. raps should have resigned vochon and traded murrays sorry ass in the off-season
with all do respect .. R U INSANE ? first .. Lamond proved that he's an excelent scorer .. and his preformance right now is a result of sitting out for a whole year .. he'll pick up his game for sure .. Voshon got nothing other than shots !
