Barbosa & Lineas are injured? It's going to be exciting to see JB play with DeMar, Sonny and Amir Johnson. AI is going to be tough, I'd like to see DeMar guarding him. He needs to be guarding the other teams best players, IMO.
Really? I thought Barbosa just came back from injury. I think guarding the other team's best player every game takes a toll, as shown from Derozan's weak offensive production in the last few games. I think Weems is a better defender anyways.
Elton Brand suspended for tonight game for the flagrant on McGee. http://www.slamonline.com/online/nba/2010/11/elton-brand-suspended-1-game-for-flagrant-foul/
Brand out is key. And, I say we meet on middle gournd; swich it up night to night. I think DeMar still needs to become a better defender, but I would agree Sonny is much better. DeMar can stick with Turner, and on the O side of the ball; I'll let the stats do the talking. Bargs should have a MONSTER night tonight...he's looking like he can score 25+ no problem. Down low, outside and getting to the line is what I've been seeing from him and it's beautiful. Bayless, LETS GET IT SON! Him and Barbosa are a fucking track meet (I may have said this before). Raptors win 106-98
42-20 Raptors, and what domination. Bayless with his first 3 as a Raptor at the buzzer, gotta love it. Also, what team play; it's beautiful. Passing the ball around, hitting our shots and getting to the boards. 100% effort all around right now and it doesn't look like it'll stop any time soon. Barbosa - Bayless is a great combo, but I can see Bayless's "Me first" game. I'd like to see him get in the flow and let the game come to him.
Wow is this really a Raptor game? Is Philly that bad or are we just that good? I'm going with good! Championship! I see what you're saying about Bayless, but it might just be the fact that he's playing on a new team (fingers crossed).
Half time and what can I say other than "Bring out the salami & cheese MAMA; this ball game is over" Ball is being passed around, everyone is shooting well and Jose Calderon actually looks like a legitimate PG. Still his D is weak and he's getting beat, but his play on the offensive end, along with his hustle; makes up for it. DeMar needs to get a little more productive, however; I can't complain because we winning by 20. Lets see this being kept up in the second half so we can all go home happy!
Jose lack of defense makes us double up which leaves one of their guys open. We need a better defense scheme to not let that happen. And Iggy nice slam, 14 point game. Lets go guys!
Loose ball on Philly after a bad Amir shot. However, Evans - 11 points , 17 rebounds. Getting to the line too. Keeping a nice distance though and we're shooting a hot 55%
