JOSE CALDERON IS MY HERO! What a play, and what a finish. We really got lucky with those offense rebounds, but still. All around good play and GREAT shooting. I'm just so happy, I don't know what to say.
I'm proud of Bargnani. This might've been his best game since the beginning of the season: 20 points on 50% shooting, with 7 rebounds and 7 assists. I'm absolutely amazed we got away with so many turnovers (Bosh with 7?), but I'll take the win. That was some incredible shooting and it shows why people can't dismiss us against any given team.
off topic but, how bout em Giants Chut? Love the secondary, espeicially Webster, good luck in the SB.
Gotta be pretty happy about this one. We dropped the ball against the Sixers but made up for it tonight. If this is also the game that gets Bargnani "off the schnide" (as Jack would say), double bonus. Probably Jose Calderon's best performance as an NBA player, too.

I don't know where Webster's pulling his performance from. Before the playoffs, he was a Joey Graham-level bust.
This along with the OT victory over the Trailblazers are my favorite Raptor games thus far this season. We were shooting the lights out against the Celtics especially at the perimeter, im so happy and proud of our performance today and hope this team can build on it. Mitchell's celebration at the end of the game was priceless as well!
I was at the game, and man... what a disappointment. A hell of a game though. This was easily the worst defensive performance by the Celtics all season long, we REALLY missed James Posey's presence tonight. I don't understand why Carlos Delfino was left wide open every single possession. Props to Toronto though, no doubt. They played very well down the stretch and picked apart the perimeter defense (or lack thereof) with their dead-eye shooting. The Celtics were absolutely hammered off those pick-n-pops with Bargnani, and Anthony Parker did what he usually does. He is a Celtic killer, just like Mo-Pete was. Calderon was fantastic, and even got a little cocky licking his fingers after knocking down 3's. Rondo completely lost him on that last possession. Great win for the Raps, tough loss for the C's. Oh well. Needless to say, should these two clubs meet in the playoffs, it would be a very fun series to watch. Congrats on the win.
That was a heckuva win, but it they were without Manu and it was an ugly win. The Portland one was still tops for me. But this was up there. It might've been our best offensive showing since the Nets game in the beginning of the season.
No comments last night... I was glued to the television screen and then in immediate shock after the game. The Raps keep on amazing me!!! Congrats to Bargs... looks like he's good to go!!
that was sick. Ho-say! way to go guys. now they better win on friday against the bucks - i'm going to that game.
