Raptors have shown us how to beat "super" team like Memphis and how to guard super-duper Pau Gasol... Please, no exuses here that Collins couldn't guard Pau cause he is unstopable.</p>
Collins played very well in this game.</p> I thought the third quarter was his best of the season.</p> I actually don't have any complaints about the way the Nets played or anyone's individual effort.</p> The Grizzlies are a tough matchup for the Nets and they played very, very well. That's why they won.</p>
with all due respect, guys, but if Memphis is a tough matchup and we can't beat this team at home, we may very well trade Kidd right now and from now on play Sean and Josh as starters. being mediocre team is not an option. eather suck (draft pick) or win (the cup).</p>

I understand this. Sometimes even Spurs lose. But, we were coming off impressive WC trip back in our building where we lost the last 5. Wasn't it the situation when you say yourself: "Tonight's anything acceptable, even death, but not a loss! It's a must win" We needed this game! Instead in the first half there was no Team on the floor. No Team! And that is what depresses me </p>
But we are not like Spurs that almost win the games that they should win.</p> They might lose to sub teams, but not many. Contrarily, we lose to sub teams usually andconsistenly !</p>
