Danny Suspended for Toronto game for hitting Nocioni with an elbow. (Word is that he'll be fined 5,000 and a case of Scooby Snacks.)

Shawne won't be there because...well...

If somebody puts up a real thread, I'll fold this in...otherwise...you can bask here.

I'm thinking 30-point loss?

Posted: **Fri Feb 29, 2008 9:40 pm**

I'm thinking Arby's

It's officially time to tank. Don't bring Tinsley or O'Neal back. Start Murphy/Diogu/Dunleavy/Daniels/Diener

Run with them, let them all take turns trying to score 50 points by themselves, and wait till next year.

Even if we only have 6 guys tonight, lets not assume Ike will play... :-?

No Granger? Why watch?

Cause its always fun to watch a former Pacer coach.

great start so far

Good 1st qt

Thank goodness this is the last time we play you guys...Sam Mitchell's attempt to play small ball with Joey Graham at center and Anthony Parker at PF is giving me panic attacks.

^ Does he just use that lineup vs. us?

This is probably the first time it has even been unveiled...you guys are probably the only team Sam consistently goes small against, but never before to this extreme. Heh, the tallest player on the floor, Kapono, is the worst rebounder on our team...

Credit to your players for coming out with a tonne of energy; missing so many key contributors, and playing on the road, it would have been easy to look ahead to the next game.

They have for the most part played hard all year,they just dont have the talent to win the close games night in and night out,there is some promise thou,so what kind of job do you as a Raptors fan feel Sam has done as a coach?

Posted: **Sat Mar 1, 2008 1:38 am**

For the most part, good; he's not a great in-game tactician by any stretch (to be honest, he's pretty awful in that regard), but he's an excellent motivator and the players love him. Following on the heels of a coach that everyone hated (Kevin O'Neill), and one who everyone ignored (Lenny Wilkins), I'm happy to have him, for all of his faults.

The result is that the team rarely goes on losing streaks...few teams bounce back from bad losses as well as the Raptors, though there have been perhaps too many bad losses to bounce back from.

Thats cool,I always liked him has a player with the Pacers

lol...

Guys played really hard tonight

Posted: **Sat Mar 1, 2008 2:31 am**

Rush is proving to be a real keeper, & Murph is playing like the player I thought he was when we got him. Graham played well off the bench too.
