I'm hoping you beat my Raps on a last-second heave from the other side of the court in triple OT! That way, we get the lottery balls while watching an entertaining game, and you get closer to the playoffs. I'm hoping you guys knock Chicago out, who lucked into Rose.

We need to win, no doubt about it. The Bulls may not lose many more games, the Sixers are hot and the Pistons are too talented to miss the playoffs.

Win and Bulls lose and we are .5 games back heading into the weekend.

This one makes me nervous. Toronto hasn't played since Monday in Charlotte and has had all that time to think about that handling. I hate hosting a team and then going to their arena a few days later anyway. And I am confident Toronto isn't tanking. Tanking is overblown anyway most of the time, if Bosh is playing he is playing to win. And there are a lot of NBA quality players and coaches fighting for their jobs and careers in Toronto. This team actually has talent to begin with anyway.

We aren't playing a D League team tonight so if we play like we did for the most part on Wednesday we may be lucky to come within 20. I am nervous about this one, not expecting anything except a fight, but again, if we execute like we can, we'll be in a great position to win. Can't afford a loss.

If we can jump out to a really quick lead and build it to 10+ it will be a massive help because the fans at the ACC turn on the Raps very quickly and I'd rather have their fans bringing them down than propping them up.

That is huge. Plus, though I am not expecting a tank job, I can definitely see a team that has had the season Toronto has losing hope if we can go ahead early. If not we're definitely in for a real fight for our season.

We gotta flip the switch and play aggressive physical defense early on and run those p*******s out of their own gym (no offense to toronto fans). Wallace is hungry to get his 4th game in a row scoring 25 pts or more. Lets leave them down 18 going into the 4th with Calderon crying on the ground. For this game, I'm worried about foul trouble and giving up free throws which is the last thing we want to do against the Raps.

For undisputed possession of 9th place. And most of Toronto talking about the dunk "TANK". Makes me think that their fans will be booing every one of their made baskets. :lol: :lol: :lol:

As for me, I hope that the Cats keep this roll going. This is one of those 12 crucial games that helps us get to the promised land...playing in late April and maybe into May. Couple of deep breaths, and go kick that Rapter-tail! It's ok to have butterflies in the stomach, but the team needs this one to stay undefeated in those 12 games...so far we are 3-0.

And for the record, I hope that the TRaps fans that want them to tank get the same result that Boston did when they tanked trying to draft Oden. A bad record and the lottery with no luck. Another team does a Chicago and moves them UP toward 14, not down towards 1. And none of this trading for Garnett stuff this time. :evil: :evil: :evil:

May the Bobcats give em a worse whippin tonight! Claw on!!!

Crash with the HUGE denial on the Bargs attempted dunk!!

Yup, yup. Crash has come out on FIRE at both ends.

The knee is great and 5th gear is officially back.

lol 3 dunks already. Sounds like Larry had the same plan we did. We're about to double their points in the paint.

If we play with this aggression all night (Crash, EO50 and Boris in particular) then this will be a blow out.

And statements like "with Gerald Wallace playing like this the Raps need to send him a message and lay him out" is why they are the worst announcers in the world.

Usually it's us watching Bosh abuse us because we have no one to defend him. It's such a change to see them have no one to defend Crash and Boris!!
