HAHAHAHAH THOSE PICS ARE HILARIOUS.
Thanks for taking over for the time being, were not having good luck like we used to have, so hopefully you can strike gold, and get us on another win streak. This should be a win, but Calderon and Bosh will give us fits all night, and if its a close game, Kapono will stick that dagger in us.
Hawks 98 Craptors 93

If we lose this game, I'm just giving up all hope on us getting out of the first round of the playoffs. There's no way on earth a good team fighting for home court advantage loses to this crap team tonight.

Sadly, they are hot while we are not.

Dallas is right. New York just ended Toronto's five game win streak.

Its a sad day when a team that just lost to the Knicks is considered to be on a better streak than the Hawks.

The Raptors have been eliminated from the playoff picture, but coach Jay Triano isn't going to rest in starters in favor of his younger players.
"Maybe the rotations happen a little bit earlier and rests (for the starters) are a bit longer, but it's not going to be dramatic," Raptors coach Jay Triano said Monday.
link hereJay Triano is coaching to prove he deserves the job full time. Toronto is more dangerous than the record shows and there really isn't much incentive to tank right now as they can only realistically gain a few ping pong balls.

"Ping Pong balls? I thought you said..."
Sorry. Should've resisted the urge, but couldn't.

We arent very good. PERIOD.
Atleast Charlotte is craping on the Sixers and it looks like the heat are gonna lose to the Hornets.

Watching that NBA Playoffs commercial where Joe humiliates Leon Powe just makes me sad. What happened to that player?

We did a good job getting to the foul line, but we need match Toronto's shooting, or pray they come out flat during the second half. It's frustrating watching this team on both ends of the court....and to think the playoffs are around the corner.

^Its also horribly scary to think that JJ still hasnt wokem up. Something needs to happen with him, cuz this just isnt working out. He cant just pick his times when he wants to be good, and when he wants so suck, which is what it looks like hes doing. GET IT TOGETHER! Its nice to see that Josh is playing better, I just wish he cared more about defense than offense, and stopped shooting untimely jumpshots.
HEY JOE HIT A THREE. YAY
OH were tied, good decision to shoot a three Josh that shows some real good IQ.

Do Woodson and Smith despise each other?

The Evans foul that just happened is silly. The Raptor runs inside, crashes into some Hawks, barely touches the ball, and Evans gets the foul called on him. Foul or not, I'm surprised we just let it slide.

He has been horrible lately. I don't know what his deal is.
Do you still think Smith shooting 3s is a non-issue? This is the 3rd time in the last 4 games that he has taken 3 shots from 3.

^ The only positive is, is that he seems to make atealst one a game. The more importang thing is that the threes and jumpshots hes taken seem to be at the most inoportune times. If he had a better Bball IQ hed be alot better.

I'd prefer him to just continue to practice them during the off season and shoot them next season if he improved. He's now 2-4 after making one of the ugliest ones I have ever seen. I expect him to attempt another one before the games over.
