hey, we won. :D

morrow making me remember why i was hesitant to even give him up in those mayo rumors last year... hes just a flat out historical shooter. did a good job punishing inside the arc when they put little guys on him too

stevenson with another great peformance, the man's our starting 3 and thank god james got injured so avery could get that. great defender (his strength and quickness really gave demar trouble tonight), a very, very smart passer, can bring the ball up court, and hes killing it from deep. he knows how to rotate the ball crisply and immediately understands where the open shot is, two debilitating faults in damion jame's game.

farmar... props to him on a damn good game. excellent defensively, penetrated and kicked, and made some shots. looked really good playing alongside d-will.

hump played angry tonight.

d-will with his best game of the year. jesus he was murdering dudes with his crossover tonight

were a pretty damn tough team when we have d-will, stevenson, and hump out there together. this team has shooters... if we can find a rhythm with penetrators like deron, farmar, and marshon, we have a chance to at least be pretty respectable.

too bad the heat are tomorrow... would have been nice to go for two in row but obv that aint happening

Well, James and Wade both might sit out tomorrow's game, so if it's just Bosh, we might be able to steal one (we always own Bosh lol).

Need Brooks to come back and look good and have Lebron and hopefully Wade sit out.

Another difference: the Raps kinda suck.

So do the Nets. We completely lost control of the Cavs game, and haven't controlled a third or fourth quarter outside of the Wizards game until tonight.

From SB Nation's Raptors blog: “Well, for the first time, in a long time, I can finally say without a single doubt that the Toronto Raptors will beat the New Jersey Nets. Scratch that, the Toronto Raptors are going to manhandle the New Jersey Nets.”

It is that simple...this team should end the yr with a 3pt% of around 38-42%...its one of our biggest strengths and we need to shoot at least 25-30 a game to have a chance of winning any night...

With 3 of the best 3-pt. shooters in the NBA in Morrow, Shawne & Okur, hopefully we'll catch up with the averages...
