<div align="center">Time: 7 pm ETWhere: ACCChannel: The ScoreRadio feed: Fan590 Streaming Online: Link</div>Key Injuries: Quentin Richardson, David Lee, Jamal CrawfordRichardson had 16 rebs against us last game. Lee is a beast on the boards. Crawford dropped 51 on us with the Bulls. Who to watch out for? Eddy CurryPrediction: Raptors Win Raptors Win
Very Very Nice game thread, LBJ, this win is KEY, it really sets the tone for the Atlantic Division, a good idea would be to shut down Curry early and let Parker do his thing on Francis. Good Job
Lee is not playing. Meaning they should not kill us on the glass. If our biggest weakness cant be exploited, and we play our game. We should win this one by double digits.Edit. Just noticed you edited yours. :dribble:
I hope we can get both of these games against the Knicks. I think we'll be alright if Stephon Marbury doesn't go off on us...
It would be huge if we win all 3 games against the Knicks. We can take all 3 games, but I think we'll be 2-1 against them. That one loss will probably be when the Knicks are at home.If we lose this, we'll get our 30th loss. If we win, we'll havea better record than the wizards.
The Wizards are going down. It is an inevitability. I just hope that the Heat pass them as well. This would mean that we would have the 3rd seed and they would have the 6th. We would have home court as well.
haha I saw the game thread pic on realgm forums yesterdayraptors are gonna win... as long as rasho can handle curry and maybe we try to get him into foul trouble, we'll be fine.
Halftime notes:Rasho is doing a pretty good job on CurryOur offense was flat for a very long period. Calderon did nothing for us offensively, and TJ hasnt been great either.Jose: sprained ankle, questionable for a returnAnthony's shot is finally back. He is 4-5 with 10 at halftime. He's looking good offensively.Bargnani is also cooking. He took alot of shots, but he is having a pretty good shooting night. 12 points, perhaps a season high?Chris Bosh: kind of quiet in the first. Not alot of shot opportunitiesQ-Rich is taking way too many shots, and it hurt the Knicks in the mid-late 1st. After scoring 15 in the first 4-5 minutes, they fell flat, and I think alot of that had to do with "quentin time"Marbury is shooting the lights out from three. TJ and co has to get out on him to challange the shot. Also having a decent passing game.Renaldo Balkman is hustling his ass off. We need to match his tenacity in the 2nd.Im pretty sure its about 49-44 for the Knicks. I think we can still win this one if Bosh gets more involved, and if TJ maybe gets hot in the 2nd half.Edit: NVM, TJ isnt scoring the ball that well, but he is having an amazing passing game! 12 assists in the 3rd. He is setting up shooters so well.
That was an intense game, TJ just took the Knicks to school in the 2nd half, they could stop his penetration as he was too quick for anyone defending him! Bargnani was on fire tonite but cooled off in the 4th as he didnt take too many shots. Overall it was an exciting game to watch!! If I were a Knicks fan watchin this game I would get soo frustrated due to the ammount of stupid turnovers the Knicks make, like for example when Frye goes up for a shot but changes his mind and throws it behind Balkman! Or just some of the guards going out of control...
It was an exciting game. lots of 3s dropping tonight. But then I love the hustle of TJ. Nobody can stop him. And well about to take over 3rd in the east. Sucks to see Jose go down with an ankle injury. But then also nice to see Parker come back after that scare. Andrea for ROY. He was amazing today. And nice that Jorge is coming off that slump.
Man, great game. They led by as many as 12, and we still managed to win by 10. We're 36-29. When was the last time we were 7 games over .500? So now we're 1-0 vs Knicks. We killed Houston last time. I think we're going to win the game on Fri.Bad thing is Calderon is injured. Hope he plays next game. Parker hurt his ankle again, but fortunately he came back.So- 36-29- 7 games over .500- W4

sh*t. Big ups to TJ Ford with a monster game. 18 points and 18 assists...It sucks that Calderon went down, but they are very fortunate to have another good PG in Ford. As much as I like Jose, TJ is the future PG of this team and he deserves alot of minutes.
Crazy Game. im glad we sent a message to all those stupid homer NY fans who think they are going to win the Atlantic. Big ups to the toronto team. Hope we can swing some momentum into fridays game.
