Beating the Bucks is peaches and cream.

According to Bucks fans, the Bucks never try against us…not even in the playoffs!

Is this how Dwane Casey feels after playing us? It's magical.
9. Similarly, IF THOU HAST SPENT the entire offseason predicting that thy team will stink, thou shalt not gloat, nor even be happy, shouldst thou turn out to be correct. Realistic analysis is fine, but be a fan first, a smug smarty-pants second.

Checks out. Bud has zero incentive to beat the Raptors and show up Nurse. It's not like we hired Nick over him.

Not exactly. Casey would lack the same follow-up hope to meet us in the playoffs. At least not in this decade.

Casey is also out of pocket for bribing his team to play hard against us.

We deserve it for years of flooding their building.

I was purely being sarcastic.

Svi has been an outright disappointment. Nothing more.

If the NBA was the Rico Hines run, I would have more faith.

Alas, the NBA is the NBA.


His orating is higher this year than in his last two.

Maybe we can use all the salt from the Bucks fans to melt the snow.

Man.....Justin seems to have such an ability to track the ball. I know everyone has said that.....but y'know how as the viewer we can see if shots are long or short or left or right? Justin seems to sense that from the floor. It's really something.


Over the years I have often wondered about this skill. Shot goes up from specific spot on the floor. If miss is off right/left long/short, what are the probably ball destinations off the rim? See shot, determine right/left, short/long miss, go to probably destination, jump. Seems Champagnie has this skill whereas it is not as obvious than many others have it, or do they just get rebounds because of height, box out, and long arms?

Recent development, Steve Ballmer, trying to control the market, has put in a bid to purchase all of Milwaukee's tears.

The best oreb against the Bucks was OG getting his own miss from 3 and dunking it, to help seal the game. But it must be easier for the shooter to guess where the ball is going than for another teammate on the floor.

Bubbles is maybe the best I've seen on the Raptors, like, ever. It's incredible. Uh, Rodman-esque. Of course, Reggie Evans a decade ago was great too, especially after he learned to pass the f out after getting the ball. But he was such a limited guy, doing most of his damage in the paint. Bubbles gets them all over the floor, and of course seems to have more potential as an all-around player.

I liked some of the questions to Nurse and Fred last week about whether this offensive rebounding skill changes the Raps offensive strategy. Nurse didn't really answer, but essentially they were asking if the Raps were gonna adopt a hockey-style dump and chase strategy? Of course, it would leave us open in transition the other way.

I'd rather a guard who's capable of picking up the trio the raptors rely on. Hustle guys get old when teams don't even bother to defend them.

I mean this really is Svi's opportunity. No other guards or shooters off the bench....MAYBE Dalano.

Come on Svi, make some shots, bro.
