Welcome the New Sun..Aaron Brooks! (even though he's not playing today..)

I decided to change up a bit the format. Added some borders and a few different traits. Hope you guy’s liked it!

Thanks for the great thread, RvM.

I'm really liking the Raps right now - Johnson, Davis, DeRozan all good young guys, Ajinca might still pay off, Bayless was a steal. Reggie is a warrior.

Colangelo is a funny GM - does some real good things and then some headscratchers.

Since the Suns are going to play out with Carter, I hope he develops some sort of rhythm with the team. And once again gamethread is the awesome.

Some tips for your graphics. The glow you put behind all the text doesn't really work. Some parts, it makes it unreadable. Try exploring other options for the text. Also, never, ever, squish a photo to fit a box. Hold shift while you resize to keep the proportions correct.

Sorry if this was OT, graphic design major... Even though I never want to work in the field.

Thanks for the advice! Yeah, the glow behind the text in the matchup image is hard to read, and had no idea you could just hold shift to keep the proportions the same. Thanks again.

Also thanks guys for the compliments.

Very excited for this game. I really want to get out of the east with only 1 loss - and this can't be it.

Wish brooks was playing, can't wait to see that little guy go off. Instead of occasionally playing Goran at the two, we can throw brooks at the one, and nash at the two.

brooks
nash
hill
frye
gortat

Good luck finding a more lethal offense then that. (and a more abysmal defensive backcourt).

no that would be a deathwish lineup. brooks and nash should never ever be on the court at the same time.

The key to winning this game is to let DeRozan shoot. When he has big games, the Raptors lose, and if he has the ball, he won't be passing to anyone else.
