Tonight's about as expected.

Totally disjointed, no offense, garbage lineups.

This one's a blowout ... I'm gonna watch the Terps.

One thing Jordan ticks me off is with how he'll stay with a line-up when their just getting man-handled. Im not saying dont play the youngs, but dont frickin play them all together with Mason being the best player on the floor...

You can't expect Toronto to shoot that bad every night. What did you expected?

Toronto has 8 players who each have 5 or more points ... already.

All 10 who have played have scored for them.

Look for Eddie to thrown in the towel like he did at Cleveland soon.

Well atleast Blatche and Mason are playing well... :)

They move the ball very well.

The Wizards are settling and not spacing well.

Without Gil or Caron, only hard work on the boards and great defense give them a chance to win.

their bench just mopped ours 26-12...it wouldnt even had looked that pretty if not for Mason. Our bench is better then last year in my opinion, it hasn't got to be as good as it can be with the injuries forcing Blatche and Daniels into the starting line-up. This bench will be real good in a year or so when the young guys are expierenced, and hopefully we can get Song and Thomas out of here some how, Songalia is just to slow footed, and has no lift in his legs, and Thomas is too short and often a black hole on offense.

I can't believe Toronto went on a crazy run with Bosh on the bench, who gives us by far the most trouble out of all of those bastards.

Another key reason the Raps have the upper hand tonight is because Bargnani stepped up. When he puts numbers on the boards, Raps usually do well. He's the key to Raps success... Roger Mason is pissing the crap outta me, the guy can shoot.

You don't think it might be because our 2 best players are hurt, our backup center is out, our starting center is sick, and we have to play 3 rookies?

This is why I try and stay out of game threads.

Also Daniels is the biggest sucker in the world on the double, he always wants to double down in the post, acting like every big man we play is Shaq Oneal...very frustrating, someone need to tell this team not to double unless it really is needed...

Glad I can't watch the game tonight because I have to work late. I can't say I'm too surprised by the halftime score. I figured the Raptors would be the agressor tonight since they lost last night and they are in front of their home town fans. Hopefully, the Wiz can at least be competitive in the second half.

No big surprise. Toronto will not shoot poorly twice in a row, especially against a porous perimeter defensive team like the Wizards.

Meanwhile, Jamison hasn't been able to play as many minutes as we need since he played so many minutes last night.

Basically, we're asking our team to win a game against a scorching hot team without our Big 3. Just not gonna happen.
