    Raptors watch

    By Frank Zicarelli

    PAYTON AND CO. GROUND CARTER

    Gary Payton and Vince Carter are friends who filmed a shoe commercial together.

    Payton was in Carter's face all game when he came with help as Rick Fox tried to guard Carter.

    A non-call on Payton resulted in Carter getting teed up. Later, he helped Fox defend Carter on Toronto's final possession.

    "It was all ball,'' Payton said. "He tried to make it look like a foul but it was all ball. That's just the way it went.

    "We weren't getting calls all game so it's the same thing. I know Vince's moves. He ducks his head a lot and doesn't see a lot of people coming."

    Fox, who was born in Toronto, knew the Raptors would have the ball in Carter's hands.

    "There were probably two or three people in the stands who didn't think the ball was going to Vince,'' Fox said. "Everyone else knew where it was going.

    "He has a strong right drive and he's very explosive. I didn't expect him to settle on a jump shot."</div>

    Yeah, I know, it really sucked that VC didn?t get the call, in one of the post it showed a picture of Gary hacking VC and it was a definite foul! But, like Kevin O'Neal said, a lose is a lose

    It wouldn't have been a loss if he went to the line

    Yeah, I feel the same way about that strip that really wasn't a strip. KO can always say that a loss was a loss, but if Carter had been fouled on that play, then he would've gone to the line and then it would have been a won or at least taken into over-time. Sometimes I think KO should really get into referees faces and stuff. Stand up for his players.

    is Rose still palying lazily like he did in Chicago... hope not... i really like Jalen Rose and respect him as a person and player... even though he supposedly said that the bulls were the worst team... when i went to the bulls- raptors game last month, i had a sign that said, "I still love you, jalen"... y'all are lucky even thoguh he may suck... hes a good person like with community work and stuff... take care
