He structures his rotation alphabetically, first names only. Why do you think Alan Anderson gets such important minutes, or Aaron Gray started more than a dozen games?

This picture's an anomaly. Andrea's a robot, I can't see him ever being this passionate and displaying such emotion. I don't think he even has any sex drive, let alone whatever drive we're hoping to exert out of him.

I'm almost beginning to think it has something to do with the Italian mafia or something.

I feel like Cliff Clavin when he landed on Jeopardy right now. Are you kidding me? I've got hundreds.

1) Andrea's unique in the NBA. Opponents are confused by him. I think we can use that to our advantage.

2) Primo is one of only 4 companies willing to pay for commercials for Raptors programming. And, yes, that means you're going to see a lot more Landry in the coming years.

3) Teams try to match Bargnani by putting their slowest, worst player against him. We feel that it's better to play 4 on 4 with the roster we have.

4) I only got the job because I sold Bryan that I could turn Bargnani into Dirk. I don't want to be fired.

5) We know people enjoy fantasy basketball. Bargnani helps Amir, and Rudy and Kyle get better rebounding numbers than they normally would.

Bargnani has a blackmail picture of Casey pounding the rock.

Bargnani's passiveness has a calming effect on his opponents. We keep him out there to mess with the heads of the opposing team. When we're leading the game even with the handicap of Bargnani, we know we've got them. It sends the other team into a panic. Our other four players on the court are inspired to play that much harder.

Andrea brings out the best in his teammates. He makes them feel like all-stars playing with him. Just look at the annoyed looks on DeMar's face last night. He thought he was LeBron, playing with inferior players.

Andrea is a freemason

I just got a new one.

"What do you mean, why? I'm Duane Casey. I'm known for my unique substitution patterns. A lot of people think it's crazy to ignore what's happening in a game and constantly play the oldest bench players I have because they're the oldest but I think a lot of those people are just young."

"We can't upset our sponsors."

Cuban used something like this rationale to justify the NBA fining the Spurs for giving their boys the night off. I have no doubt that the Raptors would stoop to it if Casey's using the Luke Walton excuse.

For someone who preaches accountability, he doesn't seem to have any when it comes to being truthful in public.

I wish the league would fine us for playing AA and Andrea. Its deterring sponsors

"We played Andrea tonight because he in the only one willing to do more important things than defense and rebounding"

Maybe that's what all those stolen victories are about...

"They're still playing those guys?!?!?! Ok, do it again, but we won't apologize this time."
