Casey is SCARY and DANGEROUS.

Tonight I will have nightmares: I sit in my car, but Casey is behind the wheel. And I have to contemplate how my live will end.

Playing JV 1:36 min in the last quarter and keeping Hayes instead??? That was unexpected and surprised the bleep of me.

Can go both ways ....the press will have more excuses for the Nets now. Expect them to come out hungry next game ....Casey almost fcked up this win. Lowry was still pissed , hopefully he gives a stern team talk to the guys.

I don't even want Amir to play such a big role on this team anymore

Raptors need to make major adjustments going into the next game, and hopefully Landry Fields can return because Joe Johnson is completely unstoppable out there when the nets spread the floor out.
Spragga - The greatest trick the Raptors ever pulled was convincing the world that Defense doesn't exist.

I think if we lost this game, that would have been the end of our season. They will have to go over tape for hours.

You heard Jack..."The team that wins game five, has gone on to win the series 83% of the time".

83%
83%
83%

I hope he's 100% right.

ROFL that's awesome.

I've always thought that instead of people waving arms/sticks randomly, the whole section should sway back and forth in unison to throw the shooter off.


What if the the building goes dead silent and explodes as the player is in the act of shooting

this win feels like a loss the way we choked that game away in epic fashion. A win is a win though. can't believe we were up 22 going into the fourth and then that sh*tfest went down

We won this game DESPITE Casey, seriously WTF is his obsession with playing Salmons so much. And why on Earth did he not switch Demar off of Johnson even after he kept nailing shots after shots, Fields may not be much of a player but he sure as hell could have served his duties in that 4th Q melt down.

poor defense, bad fouls

would liked to have seen more val and ross when we struggled instead of hayes and salmons.

although hayes and salmons weren't completely terrible..they were pretty bad..what happened to hansbrough
