Well done, Raps. Unfortunately, we did not capitalize tonight but I'd like to see the Raptors in the playoffs, so keep it up just not against us lol

I like how Rudy had 32 as well yet NBA.com's headline reads: "Despite 'Melo's 32, Knicks fall to Raptors"

Espn at least with: "Gay's 32 points guide Raptors past Knicks"

Anybody else getting sick of these commercials? I'm starting to hear this stuff in my sleep:

Before Andrea hits the court, he must be ready for everything..

Nobody believe what I can do. Nobody seen what I can do. Peak I can play..

Nadal's playing poker! ..

I'm Georges St. Pierre and I play different..

This pulled pork penne is divine..

*Weird violin music with old man winter*

Bautista's batting right now..

Props to Rod and Leo during fast break when Rod asked Leo if he knew the rapper Young MC and Leo refused to go there, extended pause, and continued their segment.

:rofl:

Considering that he is always lying on the floor during his rest, it does seem that he does have a back issue and is just playing through it.

Rudy looked much better this game because he posted up and attacked the rim rather than settling for jumpers.
Lowry got some of his cajones back and looked like pre-injury Lowry tonight.

Val is a Varejo/Noah clone in the ways that people are just going to hate playing him, Chandler seemed bothered and irritated all night whenever Val was out there.

Bargs has basically been relegated to the Gay role as pick setter, it's obviously by design because he doesnt even get to touch the ball with AA and JL3 out there.

When Gay went off for against the Knicks in the 3rd, the only person that could stop him was AA taking it upon himself to break the run by chucking one up. How is no one on the Raptors seeing how much of a ball hog JL3 and AA are?

Its also funny that people are quoting Isola, he's the Knicks version of Dougie.

Totally the right thing to do. Now if only the media could get it right with the glory the mentally ill shooters crave when shooting up movie theaters and elementary schools. Their faces are plastered all over the news and every household knows their name. Makes me rage to no end.

good 3rd and good finish to this game.

Great game, and solid performance from DD, Gay, Lowry, Jonas (for his D and managing to piss off Chandler), AA needs to understand that there are players superior to him on the pecking order in this team and stop looking off players like Gay and Demar to hoist up a contested shot. The way he chucks game in and game out, he's bound to have one hot shooting night like our last game vs the Grizz but it doesn't make up for all the countless horrid shooting nights he follows up with.

Let's go Raptors. I doubt they will go far in the play offs, but it gives them the experience they need. Next year they will be even stronger. I am a Toronto resident (so obviously I got love for the Raptors) but a Heat fan. It's gonna be hard but I want me Heat to win over raps, but I defiantly want Raptors to make the finals next year.

I went to the game and it was probably the best game I've been to. The other games I've been to with electric atmosphere we always end up losing. It was amazing really.

There was quite a bit of Knicks fans. Maybe 15-20%.
In my section there were so many of them Like a good 40+. All drunk and wearing Knicks colours. One guy got so drunk the police had to remove him. Later in the game the Knicks fans started chanting "Raptors suck" and were told to stop by the attendant. Other fans also yelled at them to stop and that it wasn't allowed.

It was as packed as I've seen the ACC. Maybe more so than with Heat or Lakers games. The first time AB was introduced it was out of a timeout and it wasn't announced over the PA. Everyone was disappointed as we wanted to boo him. However as soon as he touched the ball the boos started. He was pretty awful all game even by his standards. You could hear fans picking away at his play and defense. At his stat line. They were excited when he finally got his first"1" which was a foul. Everything else read 0 and he really didn't do anything out there. Not fighting for position and rebounds. Not doing much of offense besides hanging around the 3 pt line either.

In the 3rd he played again and we all booed. I was surprised at how unanimous it was. The vast majority were booing him. Melo was good but Casey's rotations really baffled me. AA and Fields were guarding Melo most of the time instead of Gay. Not sure why especially since it wasn't like Rudy was in foul trouble. Also when the Knicks went on the run in the 4th, I'm not sure why Lowry wasn't brought in till the 6 min mark?

The end was really fun. The crowd was so loud. Everyone on their feet and cheering so much. Great game! Was my B'day present too!
