ok, i exaggeratted a bit. But he is more efficent than Kapono. THe only thing I like about Kaps is his quick release 3 pointers, otherwise he sucks. Worst of all, he is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO stupid. He is like literally dumb. He often looks confused and not know what to do.


James is a reputable poster. I got banned for 7 days for making fun of you guys, James, if anyone calls you a douchebag REPORT THEM.

They will be suspended for 7 days.

Mo Pete after being asked to step up after Garbo got hurt completely dropped the ball. He was absolutely terrible against in the playoffs allowing the Nets to double Bosh on every play. He also showed up to training camp 25 pounds overweight and stuggled all season to get in shape.

There were many good reasons why he wasn't resigned.

if mo started from the start , raps would of beatan NJ no problem.

Mo knows how to guard Vince Better than almost anyone in the league

Except Vince didn't beat the Raps. Kidd and Jefferson did.

And a little bit of Mikki Moore.

Seriously... why do people on the Raptors board make it a point of telling users they're now on their ignore list?

Does it make you feel powerful?

Peterson hasn't done s#it in New Orleans either. He's a starter but how many minutes does he play? and he's still consistent at being inconsistent. I'd rather have Kapono. 8)

First off, there was almost nobody, at draft time, saying that we should have drafted Brandon Roy. Most of the talks were about Aldridge, Bargnani, or Gay. Looking back now, obviously we can all say "he should have got Roy!" but anything is retrospect is useless.

Secondly, MoPete has sucked incredibly this year. He's the most useless player in their starting 5, and he would be benched if they had any other decent SG. In all fairness, MoPete has been just as big a bust as Kapono in terms of the money they made.

That Andi girl is okay looking, cute for sure. But I'm surprised that nobody is pointing out that Raptors TV used a hockey reporter (she is the main reporter/host for Leafs TV) to do a basketball job.

If that was a guy, and not a cute woman, many of you in this forum would be slaying Raptors TV for that decision.

That's the point.

Yes turn the reigns over to the pretty girl. Get her all the airtime her course schedule will allow. And maybe, find away to get Minerva some more airtime. Maybe follow here around school stalker style for the read to achieve program.

Could everyone please stop quoting James699. It would make RealGM a much nicer place.

NOthing except win a trophy at the All Star game and grow a freakin beard like Wolverine half way through the season. The guy has 0 defense whatsoever. I m sitting here on my computer, and wondering what ON EARTH is BC thinking. He has made so many stupid mistakes that I wish I could have corrected (picking Roy and signng Peterson).


i learn less and less everytime I read one of your posts.

Totally agree. Of course, BC's fanboys can't see the truth. BC could sign his grandma to play for the Raps, and those fanboys will still think it's a great move.

Kapono might still be #1 in 3fg%, but it does not mean anything. He made 50 3s in 51 games. So he basically averages one 3 ball in a game and his addition has been meaningless. How many 3s did he score in garbage time? He has not change the outcome of any game, maybe one at most - something that any scrub can do on a given night.

You don't give a player #6M/yr to make a 3pointer per game, especially when he does not bring anything else. He is a blackhole on defense and rebounding. Yet another mistake by BC.

It's funny watching all those clips and everyone from Jamario to Bosh and Sam and BC are all saying the same thing. We need to improve our rebounding, and fast breaks and all that. It's clear that those deficiencies are not a problem of coaching but simply the players. And I won't blame it on our guys because each and every one of them has proven throughout their career what they can and cannot do. You play with what you have and BC needs to go get some athletic guys that rebound. We honestly miss Garbo more than anyone can imagine. He was the grimiest, gritiest guy ever. Those 5 boards he would get weren't the easy ones. He went up and got the ones he had no business getting.

WE NEED BETTER DEFENDERS AND REBOUNDERS, FIND US SOME GEMS BC, GET 'ER DONE. I HAVE FAITH

Return to Toronto Raptors
