Wow. No game thread and the pregame has started.

While the Toronto Raptors haven't won a road game in more than two months, no one has been worse away from home than the Washington Wizards.

Wizards (16-50, 1-30 away)
Raptors (18-49, 13-22 home

Could be.

I hate being torn between wanting them to win and lose.

We are currently tied for second worst in the league. We have come this far. I kind of have to lean toward wanting them to lose and get into a solid second.

I'm just happy this is the last season we should be worrying about this.

Wow McGee covered some ground. I didn't think he was going to be able to dunk that

That was amazing.

I don't see much difference in any of the top picks, so I'm okay with winning games when we can.

Hamady is in already.

I think that is a record entry time for him.

Craw (R)
Booker (R)
Yi
Hamady (R)

I thought Booker looked tentative last game. Sure enough his left hand was hurt. Xrays negative so that is good news.

Off to a strong start.

Big quarter for Booker, and we're only down six with the Raps shooting nearly 70%.

When i see Jordan out on the break i feel like he will find a way to finish no matter what the defense does. He is almost like a contortionist at times.

When I see Yi on the court I think he does his best contortionist move to stay away from the ball.

Just tuned in...

How the new guy doing...???

And is Booker's play as good as his stat-line looks...????

@ Calderon saying "They're not that good" when his team has 2 whole wins more than us...

just tuned in and wow 16 shots by jordan? how has his shot selection been?

Wow. Long busy week at work so I eat and crashed.

I woke up to the 19-1 run by TOR. I guess I missed the Wiz making their run right before that.

So I refresh my laptop and I think we just set a record. One half of basketball and not even one complete page of posts.

Interesting stat of the game - Bargnani. 13-14 from the FT line. 1 rebound. 1 PF. Really ?

Interesting state number two - Wizards are 13-21 from the line. :cry:

New guy hasn't done much.

Booker has made a couple of nice baskets going to his right. Other than that just his usual stuff. He is just dominating a sorry front line.

Wow, these refs are terrible. Just went back to watch from the beginning.

Only at the 9:30 mark and they have already blown two calls.

Not that bad. He is just struggling with consistency outside 10 feet. Seven of his 9 misses are jumpers.
