I highly doubt we beat the Lakers on the road...
That rarely happens for Eastern conference teams.
THe Pacers arent a sure-fire win either..
Ever since we took them out, they're playing like a team possessed absolutely destroying every team in their path..
Granger may be in the equation in the fourth meeting as well.


As for the Bucks...they're pretty good against the West.
It'll be interesting how they do..but they certainly wont go 1-9 in the next 10, Jennings/Ellis can will their team to a victory when they're on.and it happens like every 2-3 games

Besides the Bucks difficult schedule coming up, they may have chemistry issues with Redick joining and it will take time for them to gel.....

Cavs have no answer for Demar and Rudy, if they have big games expect a win.

You Toronto fans are so on top of things that I started to post about the Wizards. This game isn't even until Monday. Wizards fans on the Washington board barely get the game thread started before the games start. :)
Bye bye Beal.

Bassy for 45 with 19 assists. JL3 benched for remainder of season. AA traded to WNBA. Bargnani eats pasta.

I hope Wale shows up to bust a cap on someones azz.

Hi guys, I've been on vacation for the past week and a bit, and happy to be back to watch Mondays game, for some reason I strangely missed watching the raptors. I have a few questions, I heard that Ross won the dunk contest and we're 2/1 since the break (ps: f*** the Knicks! :D ), need to be filled in:

1) Good wins or ugly wins and bad performances by the other team?
2) How has the DD/Rudy/Lowry tandem looked?
3) Heard we traded for Telfair. Has he played yet? If so, good or bad?
4) Has Ross looked better since the break?
5) How's Val?
^EDIT^ 6) What's this business with Wale?

Thanks guys. Cheers

Im pretty sure Telfair is going to get some burn by Casey to see what he has in the 1st game. This would be a good time as any to see that if Bargnani gets more touches and if he does, does something productive. This is going to be a tell all tale for Bargnani this week honestly. If it doesent work out after the week, hate to say it, but we might have to consider a $10 Million bench warmer. Small Ball isint Bargnani's forte but they are still trotting him out there, they really want to help him. Acy is lying in wait to take Bargnani's minutes and role in the 2nd Unit Small Ball lineup.

Because the Wizards aren't looking for anything logical, like playoffs. They can't be understood, bullied, crushed, or reasoned with. Some teams just want to watch the NBA burn.

I was a lot more scared of the Wizards when they had Nick Young.

it'll be interesting what Telfair can do against this Wizards team. Wall/Beal plays some extremely tight pressure D wit their speed and athleticism, Telfair becomes invaluable for us in this case. Also Casey has the ability to use his trademark two PG lineup at his disposal in this game considering how undersized and skinny beal is.

I still cant believe Wsh gave away J Crawford for nothing though.

I thought Beal looked like a pretty big guy the other night. Or was that just his head?

Guessing his head...
He's listed as 6"3 and the 2nd shortest player on the team behind Price

Welcome to the Toronto boards. Where game threads are created weeks in advance because we have nothing better to do.

Beal also plays bigger than he is which is why you would think he's 6'5 or something. You wouldn't think he's the same height as Jerryd Bayless.

The Rockets are now the latest Wizards casualty.

This team is going to be a handful. Not kidding.

He also has about five inches on Bayless in wingspan.
Humble yourself.
