I guess my point wasnt so much the value of the % in a typical game situation, but in the sort of game where there's a minute or two left, and a small lead to protect. In the game the other day, they...

I think I threw up a little there.....

I was watching one of our recent wins, and near the end of the game, it was a contest of fouls and free-throws. It got me thinking how under-valued FT% is as an offensive stat. I was watching Jose go...

I'm happy for him. He worked hard here, and if it were'nt for the injuries to guys ahead of him in the rotation, he'd not have been expected to do more than the role he was hired for.

I don't think that there are any "simple trades" in pro sports. If there were, we'd have evenly balanced teams across the league. We've got enough new guys that I don't mind waiting till the...

You're forgetting that this is the Internet. People get far more fired up to rant or complain about something than they do to praise a thing or a person. It's like reviews for products. If I'm...

I think we'll see more of Ross as the season goes on. These first two games have been against top Eastern teams, and as skilled as Ross may be potentially, he's still a bit undersized and raw. JV,...

Can a small market team ever land or have a superstar player, and actually afford to surround them (once they've matured and established themselves) with enough truly quality talent? Do you not often...

Looking up the stats for Wed.'s To./Det. game and I couldnt get past a wall of "buy tickets now" spam at NBA.com, but I did find the box score over at ESPN....

It's way more than a skin disorder. I have an auto-immune disorder, and I can tell you, it kicks my ass on a regular basis. I really hope that Demar doesn't develop any of the more serious (and life...

The word is "utmost", but yeah, I think the interviewers hit it on the head when they said that coach Casey is a guy who when he speaks, gives hope to the sports fans of the city. Respect and...

The other sad thing that many people wont openly admit to, but I've encountered living in Oshawa, is that Hockey remains (on the player and fan ends) a mainly white guy sport. Basketball is perceived...

Aside from maybe getting more hockey starved fans, does anybody here wonder if the new MLSE ownership might make an effort to help the Raps win that they might not have in a non NHL lockout season?

If the lockout happens like it looks it will, do the Raps come out winners in this? On the heels of an NBA lockout that may have cost the team some of it's casual fans, the NHL looks to be dug in for...

All respect to Lowry, but until I see him tie his shoes while handling the ball, this comparison is moot.

If it is Lowry, the more he develops as the Alpha dog/team leader, the harder it will be for he and Jose (Calderon with no "e") to co-exist at the point position I would think. I like Quincy, but...

We all are!

Cassius Clayza? :)

It's the sort of schedule where we may get off to a rough start by playing away so much. I figure there will be tons of "I told you so's", "They suck!" and calls for heads to roll...followed by a...

I think the real benefit is seeing and being around the level of play that exists on the Select and Olympic teams. I'd rather see him realize the amount of work that perennial all-stars put into...

From the games Ive seen or checked out lately, it does look like JV will most likely be in some sort of foul trouble (ala Amir early days) before games are over. I'm not sure I'd like to see Gray, or...

I'm going to be curious to see if Bayless's habit of under-performing off the bench, but performing well as a starter continues with his new team. I am a Bayless fan and enjoyed having him here...

It's the whole "I need a job to get a car, but I cant get a car because I have no job to afford one" syndrome. Eventually you get caught in team limbo (ala Houston Rockets) where you have too much...

Exactly. In many ways, his job IS to foul out! It may not look like anything on a stat sheet, but it can change the tone and outcome of a game. he's more about sending a message and clearing space...

Voted Calderon. He's a Raptor at heart and a very good player. Honestly though, if any of the players on the list were truly consistent, night in and night out, I'd vote for them.
