We will beat the bulls, rockets and the hornets once out of 2. Just gotta believe.

Nahhhh, who am i kidding. You right.

Detroit isn't an easy win… Reggie Jackson has really gave them a spark. JV Amir and PP have to bring their A-Game tomorrow.

I expect DeRozan to be in attack mode so Ross needs to be dialled in in order to open up the floor. With all the scrutiny around this team, i actually am liking what I'm seeing lately with the fight and effort since the Knicks loss.

I think DeRozan missing the 360 is the best thing that has happened to him this year… DeMar is a guy i believe to be based off pride, and that failed attempt is the reason for the extra drive and explosives he had lost. He was tentative before that miss. Since his FT's are up and he's been more effective with the jumper. DeMar took it personally and has handled it like a pro…

DeRozan with 24/5/8 tomorrow… Hopefully Lowry returns with his shot still in form like it has been lately, if so then the Pistons are in for a long night!

F*CK Detroit
F*CK Drummond
F*CK Van Gundy
F*CK this I'm OUT

A test of the team's mental toughness. They HAVE to start showing that they are playoff ready.

Hollinger has 49 wins.

If they can get Ws vs Detroit and Chicago then 50 should be doable.

Clearly not that hard if THIS Raptors team almost did it.

We play the Heat as well in Miami I believe. That won't be an easy game either, with the Heat battling for playoff positioning.
