Time for Hendo to display his random hate against the Raptors franchise, haha.

He has had five 20-point games against them, one of them being the 31 points he scored this season at Toronto. That probably should be the highest amount of such games he's had against any NBA franchise.

I think Kyle Lowry is out for this game as well, which is a big help.

don't worry. after I jinxed him with my post, he'll be invisible on offense and show up for the occasional mid-range two off the dribble.

Lol already being invaded by Raptor fans (or fan). Shocker there.

Perused the game thread on the TOR board, their terror towards Hendo is hilarious.

Also learned this little factoid - it has been FIVE YEARS since Toronto came to Charlotte and left with a win. Since that time, Charlotte has gone 12 - 3 against Toronto. That's even better than I thought.

I probably won't be on live tonight... most likely on DVR on about a 30 minute delay. :(

Who guards Lou Williams on our second unit? Don't feel great about Mo, Roberts or Lance having that job.

Interesting question. We're just going to have to deal with it and hope one of Mo Williams, Roberts, or Stephenson can cope. I don't see the necessity in going deeper into the rotation to give Jeff Taylor a shot at defending Lou Williams when I don't like his chances either
