The Atlantic Division sucks again this year. Gotta say that I expected the Nets to play better than they've had so far.

So awesome watching this game , no matter how much crowd noise they pipe in seeing all the empty seats , the Raps put these teams to shame with their fan base they deserve a championship more than most of these fake teams do . When they put these guys on TNT they pump up the fake crowd noise when they put the Raptors on TNT they tune the real crowd noise down lol .

National TV games have been underwhelming so far this year.

Knew Heat couldnt keep it up, Bosh can only carry a team to a natural 9th at best. Im one of the very few who had Miami missing the playoffs and 8th at the very best.

Stubbled onto this video. I used to have arguments in the GB about why Tony Parker was instrumental to the Spurs offense where they thought he was just a glorified shoot first point guard. I wish I had this video in those arguments.

Would be sweet to see us running this with Lowry.

To be fair they're missing their best player.

However at this point we should have expected Wade to miss time.

I assumed Bosh had to carry that team cause Wades knee hangs by a thread. I saw a preseason pic of his knee... omg. The difference between knees was crazy.

1. Chicago
2. Cleveland
3. Toronto
4. Washington
5. Atlanta
6. Charlotte
7. Brooklyn
8. Miami
9. New York

Well it could be like that after 82 games... (hope not for Toronto's sake)

Harlan shouts out Toronto. Said Raptors are a good team and he enjoyed the experience, the crowd, last week against the Bulls and wants to come back up again for TNT.

Yeah don't think they can change it. When Miami was one of the hottest teams in the league after winning the championship with Wade and Shaq, they decided to randomly tank one year for Derrick Rose and finished with the worst record in the league. All of their games were still nationally televised regardless of how putrid they were.
