He's healthy, he just can't buy a freaking shot at this point, though. :(

Is his D still solid?


Oh yeah, his d is still great, we look so much better with him on defense and crashing the boards.

The Nets are hugely favored to win this series, and that's probably going to end up happening.

BUT I STILL BELIEVE, RAPS IN 4!

i havent followed much Nets basketball..but since he was healthy did he get some minutes to get his game conditioning and rhythm back...that might be the problem why he is not hitting shots.


He got a few more minutes since he came back a couple of weeks ago, he looked quite good on the game he came back but it was against the sixers so take that with a grain of salt, his outside shot just isn't falling, though, and this could be a problem as Toronto has a lot of length.


i wouldn`t worry about KG in the playoffs...even if he is not scoring he`ll be doing something else to help the team win. Joe Johnson seems to disappear in the post-season though..that would be my concern.

Well, you play your division 4 times, but that doesn't negate what the Raptors did this season.

The Central had the Bucks who won the least amount of games in the entire league, the Southeast had Orlando at 23 wins and a sub .500 team in the division make the playoffs.

At the end of the day, while the Atlantic could still be considered the worse division, it's not a huge advantage across the entire East as much as everyone makes it out to be. And Brooklyn was in the same division so had the same advantage of playing in that division as the Raptors and weren't as good.

What does that mean for this series, not that much but undermining winning the Atlantic isn't really fair to the Raptors.

Yup. League trying to help the old-ass Nets, giving them all that rest in between games. They really want that Nets-Heat series to happen.

If officiating is balanced, I think the Raps can take this in 6. But, if the Nets continue to get calls like this (0:20 mark) it will be tough. We won that game in spite of the refs.

If I was JKIDD id be laughing too at that obvious blocking foul.
