    Well Matt Bonner had already taken Marshall spot as the first big man off the bench, you saw how yesterday when Bosh got in foul trouble, Bonner came in. Bonner is not as trigger happy as Marshall when he get's the ball off the pick and pop, and he's more energetic on defense. He can also hit the mid-range jumper, Marshall was one of the worst players last year shooting from about 19'.
    If he didn't get so many fouls he would've porbably played more, but s'all good, Bonner can do most of the things Marshall can do, but I hope he's back soon.

    Araujo is not likely to see more minutes, but Bonner will.

    Chris Bosh played amazing. I was proposing a trade to everyone in my fantasy league because his performance the past 2 games pissed me off, but now I'm a bit hesitant in dealing him.

    Chris Bosh is playing really well but I love Rafer alston. He is THE player the makes and breaks the Raptors. Vince was sort of playing a little bit more aggresive in the 2nd and 3rd quarters. He was looking more for himself but once again, Sam made the smart decsion in benching him and Rose. It showed he had trust in his bench and he doesn't need the best scorer on his team to win ball games, even on the road. Loren Woods is having a great time out there, I love the edge he brings. He's long and gets some garbage points and a couple of shots here and there, we finally have somewhat of a threat in the post, I hope he continues this play.

    Rose was forcing up so many shots. Some really horrible calls and AK-47 and the Booz were just goners. What happened there?

    Kudos to the Raptors.

    i concur, after watching summer league i called him a poor man's donyell marshall and after 5 games i think i'm right. he's not as long as marshall but he's a lot more physical. plus, i think moiso can come off the IR today so anticipate roster changes.

    Its funny how Matt Bonner is getting more minutes than Rafael Araujo. Last time i checked Rafael was picked in the first round while Matt was picked in the 2nd. Nevertheless, Matt Bonner OWNS. His shot from outside is so sweet. I think he's gonna get more minutes now that Donyell is out.

    Matt Bonner is my hero! [​IMG]

    Go Raps and Mavs!!! [​IMG]
