    I actually thought they would lose the game before that. They had overplayed Bosh up to that point and had really depended on him, because of everyone else's collective shooting slump. They surprised the hell outta me by building an 8 point lead with Bosh on the bench. I don't understand why they let Memphis run away with it when our starting lineup was back in the game.

    Heh, I didn't bother to watch this one.

    But our weak rebounding crippled us in that one?

    just looking through the laker-mavericks boxscore and i noticed that shawn marion was a game high best +37. me wonders if a starting lineup of bargnani, bosh, marion, belinelli, caledron and a bench of jack, derozan, wright and evans is better than what we have now.

    Rasho had 8 and 6 in 8 minutes. Did he look as good as those stats say?

    And for this game, I'm disappointed, but not surprised. This team is still new together. I did miss the game though.

    Rasho was actually decent. He had a few good plays/offensive rebound put backs. On the defensive end though he had some lapses.

    I didn't watch any of this game but it looks like I didn't miss much.

    An almost entirely predictable letdown. Teams that play up and down to their competition rarely succeed. We should be striving for consistency.

    not as good as stats may indicate but he was alright. he missed a few putbacks as well, defensively he was solid considering his limitations. i felt he guarded randolph the best out of any raptor big
