Its too bad.........

that as soon as we hear a couple of players aren't playing for the other team, the Raptors just assume they're going to win.

First in Washington and again last night. That game in Washington was lost the moment they heard that Caron Butler was not going to play, and I think it was pretty obvious. Last night we hear that they're playing with a depleted roster on a second game of a back-to-back, and the Raps come out like they're supposed to win that game. We're not good enough yet to just assume we're going to win because the other team is missing a few player.

We're not a very tough team mentally or physically. Our toughest guy is TJ, and he's the smallest guy on the court. What does that say about our team. Our second toughest guy is Garbajosa and he's been injured the whole seson. And when I say mental toughness, I mean coming out and being "the hunter". Last year we were playing hungry and came out being the hunter in alot of games. This season we have show glimpses of being the hunter, like in San Antonio, New Orleans and in Boston, but not on a consistent basis.

What I'm saying is we can't just assume we're going to win, and that starts with Chris Bosh.

Please TJ come back soon and get this team in line.

PS: Moon, go to the god damn rim.

The way Moon plays on the offensive end, he should have that damn pink school girl bag attached to his jersey.

What about the Celtics game? We won that one and they were missing Allen.

last nights game was an aberration. I dont think any team in the L can beat lakers if their scrubs were hitting 3s after 3s..it felt like our game vs. the celts only we were on the recieving end. I dont even blame Sam last night except for that stretch he put Dixon on Kobe..i dunno what was he thinking. But we tried double teaming Kobe..what did he do? Give up the ball and made them hit jumpers. Singel coverage on Kobe..what did he do? what was it..4 or 5 ferocious dunks...u just hang ur head and say too good..thats all..there is no defence in the entire league to contain that kinda shotmaking. NONE!!

If anything CB4 should take the blame for last night. I think the hype about him being unstoppable got to him. So many forced jumpers when he was being double teamed. And fade aways to make it worse..I dunno what was he thinking. He really forced the issue a lil too much last night. CB4 is at his best when he gives up the ball on double teams. Not trying to go over 2 guys with a fade away high arching shot. Who does he think he is? KOBE? I hope this is the last time we see CB4 pull this crap.

Which Allen are you talking about? Because both Ray Allen and Tony Allen played.

Moon can't get to the rim, he had Joey G as a ball handling coach. Moon cannot create off the dribble. He is the new Fred Jones, a gifted athlete turned chucker courtesy of B.C.'s philosophy.

I think Kobe was just a little extra happy with the news about getting Gasol for nothing, which motivated him to put on a show last night.

Although it sucks we lost, I'm glad I witnessed that show

What do you guys expect from moon? really this guy has no handles, so how do you expect a blow by to the rim?

Notice all his dunks, fast break or off ball cuts. (maybe 1 or 2 off the dribble)

He does need to work on his handles and take it to the rim with confidence.

I just trading for him in my fantasy pool.. Im hoping after a great rookie-sophmore game and a good dunk off his career will be going down the path to semi-stardom and his confidence will shoot through the roof.. then maybe he has the determination with all the media coverage to be the best he can be and believe in himself to be the best he can be.

(fingers crossed)
