Two dunks? I thought he only had one dunk in his career.

I wasn't aware of any - I remember him getting called for goaltending last season, but that's the only above the rim play I have ever seen or heard of him making. Is there any video evidence of these dunks?!

I only remember one, but I read somewhere he was credited with another one. I don't have a source though. He definitely has one though.....which is probably the same one you remember. I believe he picked someones pocket before they crossed half court, then dunked it and Francis jumped on him.

I liked Jameer's reply after a dunk when he was asked why he didn't do it more often -- "Why should I? It's just 2 points." I don't get the fascination with the dunk. Give me a 3 pointer. For excitement, a fast break.

Jameer stole the ball from Kidd and then dunked it, barely. Only one I'm aware of.

He gets up pretty high on rebounds. I'm sure if he had all day long on a breakaway, and if he cared, he could throw another one down.

Here's to Dwight blocking shots all night and Raps fans complaining about fouls and goaltends :wink:

I've decided that the Magic will win.

My prediction, fear the flop. Toronto will be throwing themselves all over the place.

From what I can remember Oneal plays Dwight pretty good, but I still don't see how much different they are.

Our offense has not been clicking. Hopefully our guys will start hitting and propel us for the rest of the season.

We just aren't making shots outside the paint, except for Pietrus and sometimes Jameer. Rashard and Hedo could build a mansion with all the bricks this season. Battie is shooting better than them.

That may not be all bad news after all. We know both Rashard and Hedo are top quality shooters, they will eventually find their form and we will be firing all cylinders

Cougar rejoice!!!

Magic shooting guard Mickael Pietrus will miss tonight's game against the Toronto Raptors with bruised ribs and he is expected to be replaced by J.J. Redick.

We are gonna get owned on by the Toronto guards tonight. I hope C. Lee and Bogans do well.

Whoa! Never thought I'd see this. Especially without Calderon in the lineup!

I agree however Delfino is gone (major flopper) and so was Garbajosa. Calderon flops too but is injured. So the only two Raptors that you'll be seeing flopping is Parker and Bosh.

So if he miserably fails in his assignment of Dwight, expect Raptor nation to be very worried once more come playoff time.

You are not the main reason we went after jermaine my friend, however you did play a part. We went after jermaine because our interior D has just sucked for the longest time..since Charles Oakley and Keon clark manned the paint

Damnit, Peaches hurt.

Cant wait for bogans to be late running towards people, or getting stuck in a screen and taking 5 seconds to get out of it

Breaking news from Raptor's forum: Josey Calderon is not playing.
