I made a game thread for the Nets/ Raptors game tonight, please feel free to come over to the Nets forum and discuss the game before, during & after the matchup. It is an important Atlantic Division game for two teams looking to find away out of early season slumps. Anyway link: Nets vs Raptors Preview & Game Thread
dammit why do raptors get so loose when they play in the 4rth quarter when they lead. this always happens like a min left. hope they win
CARTER!!! i think we shouldnt put the ball in his hands anymore at crunch time, i think he lost his ability to score in clutch.. dammit, you gotta REBOUND!!!
OMFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ughhhhh. this is sad, damn man how the heck did that not go in. cant believe it. god im pissed.
DAMMMIITTTTT!!!! damit damit damit! we cant even beat the nets! wtf is going on here. get rid of all these guys who are a bad influence. we need some young guys. help us Lord! lol
OH MY GOD!!! I can't believe Carter missed that layup. He had KIDD on him. KIDD! He beat him to the basket and it was basically one on one yet the shot didn't fall in. IT ROLLED AND BOUNCED AROUND THE RIM BUT DIDN'T FALL IN!!!! I'm extremely static and pissed right now. It's not really Carter's fault but I just can't believe it didn't fall in after bouncing 3 times! With every loss we suffer, it's apperent we need some changes around here, ASAP. You're on the clock, Babcock.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting DerfZ:</div><div class="quote_post">CARTER!!! i think we shouldnt put the ball in his hands anymore at crunch time, i think he lost his ability to score in clutch.. dammit, you gotta REBOUND!!!</div> Not really, just a really unlucky roll... So how about Jalen Rose? Everyone played pretty good today apart from our rebounding deficiencies again, Carter surprised me and played very well on both ends, but we just couldn't come out with it, we should've won the game earlier though... This was a must win considering the rest of the games we have coming up, Raptors have the toughest starting schedule in the league.
omg can anyone else on this team rebound beside Marshall? The last possession by the Nets was ridiculious. What's with the foul at the end that send RJ to the line? Did anyone even see a foul. What, Carter moved like 2 cm, and he gets called for a foul. What BS calls. Vince made about 3 ridiculious shots today, and not even one of them was and and 1. No Vince Bashers tonight, that last shot was just bad luck. Bottom Line, our rebounding killed us.
no kidding...how'd we get this horrible schedule anyways?? this was a winable game for us...we needed this win. how do we beat san antonio, but lose to the nets? talk about inconsistant
i guess we can all say that the raptors come out to play against the big-boys but dont try as hard against the sub-par teams
"Not really, just a really unlucky roll..." I agree. Very very unlucky. What more could vince have done? he got the ball in the cylinder and gravity prevailed. *ahem* ...... Why don't the Raptors trade Carter already?! It is so clear that something is wrong and we need to fix it. Portland said yesterday that something is wrong with them and changes need to happen. HMMMM....I wish they would do the trade alread. Every day the Raps are losing valuable wins.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Banks:</div><div class="quote_post"> No Vince Bashers tonight, that last shot was just bad luck. </div> for real! this loss is hardly vince's fault. the teams weak D and lack of rebounding intensity is what cost us the game. we were up almost all game and we let them beat us...just pitifull.
