Have u guys noticed that at the beginning, Lamond Murray would play much more then Mo Pete? but now Mo does? I herd some things about kevin o'neal wanting Mo Pete to play more, but isant that unffair? Lamond Murray had said in the media that he asked the coach if there were something wrong with him? and the coach said noting...... well isant that unffair? u cant just sit someone down and tell them u can't play with out a reason why! its kinda lame to me, Lamond Murray is a greatttt player (so is Mo Pete), so i think the Coach should give him more playing time.
KO has some seroius issues 1. Need rebounders? theres one seating at the end of your bench (jerome Moiso) 2. Need scoring? theres one seating at the end of your bench (Lamond Murray) 3. Want turnovers? Make Jalen Rose your point guard 4. Want to win? Don't play Michael Curry 20 minutes a game
Mo Pete is as good on offense and alot better defender plsu he can play sg and sf. Mo deserves more playing time.
Mo deserves playing time, but i think Moiso and mason Jr. deserve it as well. If O'Neill is playing Arch so much, then why doesn't he play Moiso or mason Jr. too????
well if u guys are really into and know your basketball.... Moiso hasn't proven he could play on the Raptors system cuz he doesn't do much in practice or during minutes he gets.... Mason Jr. on the other hand proved that he could play knocking down that 3 and 2 pts during CLippers game i believe.... Archibald is only in there cuz he has a BIG BODY and can rebound better then Moiso..... and CB4 The only reason Micheal Curry is playin 20 minutes cuz HE IS THE GUY WHO CAN PLAY DEFENSE AND COULD DEFEND PLAYERS!! and for mo pete and lamond murray..... i'd rather play Murray more then Mo Pete cuz Murray is a veteran and knows how to play the game... Mo Pete is inconsistent
Moiso was given limited minutes and only got 2 starts . He played bad for only 2 or 3 games, but he did really help us many times. I really dont think he's all that bad and i know he can help us if given some time.
moiso was givin opportunties and simply put, blew it. he hurts the team more then helps when hes on the court. lammond i agree should get more minutes, but when he was getting minutes he was WAY more inconsistant then mo pete. the one thing mo is consistant at is D, which lammond is just lacking. lammond should get at least SOME minutes though.
mo is a fabulous player. and i totally agree with cb4! Though, Murray and Mo or the others -- they all have their qualities its hard to choose one of them at the time and leave the others on the bench and stuff, so they have to work in a team still .... its always hard...
dj, Moiso was given very limited oppurtunities and O'Neill just gave up on him based on limited judgement on the court. However, his benchtime may just be because of his attitude in practices. Still, he needs some playing time to get a little comfortable and prove O'Neill, Chuck Swirsky, and many Raptors fun wrong.

yeah, O'Neill's system is based on D...Moiso is likely sluggish and lazy on defense (most big men are), Murray is a matador on defense who can only score...Peterson atleast has quickness on D and makes an effort...O'Neill rewards those who play both sides of the ball, not just specialists...
