Boatright cleared to play tomorrow. Bad news for Lamb and Drummond.

Its actually good news for me. I want to see if reducing Lamb's minutes on the floor will allow him to put in the requred effort on defense.

I don't like it because he's another ball hog and he pushes Lamb to SF for stretches when they and Shabazz are all on the floor. I think it's awful. I want the ball in Lamb's hands and for Drummond to get the ball, too.

Wow, Wroten with the missed dunk.

:o Tony Wroten with a nasty, deep pull-up three with 2-seconds on the shot-clock. Really amazed at his ability to create/score out of broken plays, something this Raptors squad need.

Wroten's "swag" borders on douchebaggery. He's got a lot of talent though.

wtf I've counted at least three times this half Josiah Turner getting hacked on his drives and no calls.

Yeah, he's definitely not the most cerebral player you'll ever see, that's for sure.

it was a very dumb play. Although I find it more upsetting that the ref had the balls to make that call with 5 seconds left and not the more obvious foul on wroten with .5 seconds left.

What a crazy ending. First Solomon Hill with the clutch three-pointer up top to tie the game. Then the rejection by Wroten to seal the game on Turner. Too bad Turner picked a bad spot/time trying to draw the charge...
