It's mid-way through the 4th and all i can say is Rose SUCKS A$$. He's really killing the team and is looking sooo much for his own shot rather than getting better shooters and scores like Vince, Alvin, and Yell into the game more. :thumbsdow
That was a frustrating game, we were only losing by 2, but Milt Palacio(not to point fingers at him) let Tinzley shoot that 3 and he shouldnt have!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Raptors loose 83-77. I really thought we had them, but we played really good in the 4th, a great comeback, but unfortunately didnt make it
Oh well Good game, Raptors shouldn't have let it sink that far and try to have made a comeback. Great game, we just came out of the bad end of that one
ouch! tough loss, we really put the clamps on in the 4th, but a pretty blatant non-call against jalen in the dying seconds, was really the nail in the coffin. vince really played well in the 2nd half, and ended up with a nice game. considering who was guarding him the whole game, i was impressed. he really stunk up the court in the first half though another great game from donyell, once again he was the best player we had on the court...hes quickly climbing the double double ladder in the league...hes a machine, what bad can you say about his play? moiso with another fairly solid game, he couldnt buy a bucket, but 11 boards in 15 mins of play is a solid contribution. we certainly could have used a 10 point effort from him toinght though, but at least he did something. i thought jermaine got d'd up pretty well...i mean, he only shot 9-21 and 5 of those were dunks, so lonny, arch and moiso all played him pretty well, especially lonny. tough loss, i had almost given up midway through the 3rd, but we almost stole one from them. overall, the raps are still lookin like a better team of late. maybe we can grab a 3 game win streak on our west-coast swing
Ugly turnovers and an inconsistent effort to drive from Vince + horrible shooting from Jalen = a loss we could have easily taken yet again. Oh, and by the way, how good am i in predicting the final score?!?!? I really should start going Pro-Line.
Good game...tough loss. Moiso had solid contribution, which is Good, and I'm happy DOnyell is continuing with his consistency. The Raptors have held up against the recent oponents they have face which could have easily made it a Blwolout Loss for the raps, I'm ahppyf or that and hope its a sign of things to come. Once Bosh gets back, I cant wait. I'm hoping we can grab two wins during our west coast trip. Hoping.
Tough loss. I really thought we could have won this game but in the end we came up short. I like Vince attacking Artest on the offensive end during crunch time though. We will get back to .500 sooner or later with him playing like that.
<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Indiana 83, Toronto 77 Pacers Hold on to Top Raptors TORONTO, Feb. 6 (Ticker) -- Jamaal Tinsley is getting more and more comfortable taking the big shot. Tinsley shook off a rough shooting night by drilling a key-pointer with 2:23 to go as the Indiana Pacers posted an 83-77 triumph over the Toronto Raptors. Tinsley missed five of his first seven shots, but with Indiana clinging to a 76-74 lead, the Pacers' point guard stepped up and drained the key basket in the contest. "The play was actually called for me," Pacers forward Jermaine O'Neal said. "He came in and hit a big one for us." Tinsley finished with 11 points and continues to get it done from behind the arc. Since opening the season 3-of-18 from three-point range, Tinsley is shooting 37.5 percent (27-of-72). He also has seen his scoring average and playing time increase in each of the last four months. </div> Click Here for the full NBA.com recap Box Score
Did anyone see the end of the half when Carter almost dunked on Jermaine? He obviously got fouled but it was nice to see something that agressive come out of him again.

Another great game from Raps. This proves two things. Raptors are better than ever, as far as this season goes, but at the same time, we really lack of depth overall as a team. We just can't seem to hold our own against good teams: Pistons, Lakers and Pacers, just can't beat'em.
Yup...a perfct example shown in today's game w/ the Magic vs. the Lakers. Orlando had L.A. running after them the entire game, then at the end, L.a. just slapped them all in the face and made them realize that they can never beat a team like them.
