I know we won tonight. But here you can see the difference with a team that wants to win a championship and one having a cheap owner. Amare goes down for the season, Nash is hurting everywhere and you don’t make a move; while Boston signs two players that will probably help them repeat in Marbury and Moore. I know that they aren’t the best of players, but they are both upgrades over everyone we have on the bench. I would have loved to see marbury back up Nash. He signed there for 1.2 mil, are you kidding me sarver? Do you not understand that you need a backup point guard for Nash? Unbelievable.

Bosh saying Shaq was camping under the rim and no 3 second calls were being called.

Bosh needs to STFU, he's just pissed that he couldn't guard Shaq. You couldn't expect him to though, he's like 100 pounds lighter and a finesse guy instead of a power guy. Shaq wasn't camping, either. He might've gotten away with one or two, but so did a few Raptors.

Man, I was pinning my hopes to your report that he was only out five weeks!

Something tells me that after this game and Nash's return we will be rolling with a starting lineup of:

Shaq
Lou
Hill
J-Rich
Nash

with our bench being, Barbs, Tucker, hell our ENTIRE bench!

O’Neal still insists no one can guard him one on one.

“I’m the only player,” he said, “who looks at each and every center and says to myself, ‘That’s barbecued chicken down there.”’

A lot of us Raptor fans criticize Bosh's defense too, but come on. Bosh is not a banger and Shaq probably has 100 pounds on him. You can't expect Bosh to shut him down when he was in major foul trouble for that amazing run Shaq had in the 4th.
