But where's the fun in that? I want to see YI VS BARGS!


Pitting all of China against all of Canada won't end well, trust me Speedy, we'd be starting World War 3 with that matchup.

I wasn't referring to what vinzanity said, I was just talkin about last yr, and he averaged 18.75 pts last yr against the raps

May 1, 2007 @ TOR (Playoff Game #5) -- 30 PTS (10 of 22 shooting)
April 24, 2007 @ TOR (Playoff Game #2) -- 19 PTS (8 of 24 shooting)
April 21, 2007 @ TOR (Playoff Game #1) -- 16 PTS (5 of 19 shooting)
April 11, 2008 @ TOR -- 21 PTS (9 of 15)
February 13, 2008 @ TOR -- 15 PTS (5 of 15)

-------------

VC's average against the Raptors @ the ACC --> 20.2 PTS, 37 of 95 shooting from the field... that's 38.9%. I don't know where you get your sources, but surely you misinterpret my argument. I said specifically that Vince struggles against the Raptors at the ACC.

In the event that you'd like a larger sample size, here's his numbers against the Raptors @ the ACC in the 06-07 regular season.

February 14, 2007 @ TOR -- 17 PTS (5 of 15)
December 15, 2006 @ TOR -- 12 PTS (4 of 17)

Just in case if you were wondering, the cumulative average comes out to 18.57 PTS on 46 of 127 shooting from the field (36.2% shooting from the field).

Hello Nets fans.

First off, Vince always plays well against the Raps, or he usually does.

Secondly, Devin Harris is a better pg then Jose because not only is he a great offensive player, but defensivley he's so much better.

You guys better hope that VC and Harris go off though, because I can tell you right now our front court, we like to call it BoB, will dominate like usuall.

You guys should also be honored. You get to see the worst player in the league first hand. I introduce you to Willie Soloman.

Whoops My bad,I guess I made some mistakes on my calculations lol..But that is based on last year..You did say that he always struggles at the ACC which is not true in my opinion,He's had some pretty stellar games at the ACC.Anyways,I hope I'm sure it will be a good game and hopefully The Nets can pull it out.We could be in trouble with JO,Bargs and Bosh though,we are very very thin on the Front with injuries.

Woah, you guys are really high on Harris. He still can't shoot worth a lick right? Should be fun tomorrow night, but the advantage up front should be too much for the Nets....Btw, nice gfx NetsForce...

He's been pretty money with his midrange jumper, to be honest if I had to guess I'd say he's currently among the league leaders in "AND1's" on his jumpers too... Devin is a crafty little dude... His three-point shot is still a work in progress though...

As a Raptor fan I don't want to see that either but I can guarantee that some 12 yr fools will be in here either way. The trick is not to fall for the bait, they love that. Don't give them attention and they get bored.

Anyway.... raps by 10 is my prediction but we've been the incredible collapsing team late in games so anyone's got a chance against us.

he's a weird player in that regard...he's almost better shooting off the dribble...but I think he's learning to get himself set before the pass when anticipating a jump shot...when he follows through, his shot looks pretty damn good...as far as his 3pt shooting, he is 5-10 over the last 3 games...I agree, the amount of shots he is taking, Devin is learning to stay confident with his shot...he has the ability to be a good 3pt shooter...just has to pick spots, dont force them and stay confident...the range is there...

The more I see him play the more confident I am in saying that Andrea Bargnani is the next Austin Croshere.
