Raptors 2-17 from the field this quarter, but the Clips have not really taken advantage of that.

Raptors lead 54-40 at the half. It's almost the exact opposite of the last game. Zach is playing very well, but everyone else is struggling. Neither team is shooting that great, but you can't give up 14 more rebounds (9 of them offensive) and expect to win. This team will have to get its act together in 2nd half or it'll be loss number 53.

I was supposed to be there, but a health problem prevented me from getting there. My son and his friend are suffering through this one.
I sure hope the Clippers pick it up in the second half.

Sore right shoulder that he injured Friday's game. I haven't heard Milph say anything about it though.

Thank you for your kind wishes, mkw. Much appreciated.
We shot 29 per cent in the third quarter.
It's hard to find any area where we're doing well in this game. Very frustrating.

I was cracking up when Ralph said, "O'Bryant for Pizza" at the end of the game. It was hilarious, at least I had something to laugh about even though we lost big this afternoon.

It looked pretty obvious that Zach was having knee trouble, and probably Baron as well. Last thing we need on this long road trip. More injuries.
Not a very happy 35th birthday game for Marcus Camby, but best wishes to him on his birthday anyway.
The brightest spot in the game was the way EJ just kept working hard and fighting no matter how dire things got. He's got real character.

All we can do is regroup and not have a repeat performance of today against the Celtics. There's only 12 games left and I'd like this team to at least play decent basketball down the stretch.

First off, forgot about the thread for today.

Had a lot to do today and it slip my mind. I will make it up in the next game thread.
