I'm not really that surprised though. Its ESPN. They only care about the "big market" teams like the Celtics and the Lakers and the Knicks and the Bulls of the worlds. Celtics are fighting for a playoff spot(unexpectedly) and what do you know they dropped the Raps game and picked up the Celtics game instead. Not surprised. This has nothing to do with the Raps "collapse" as you all say.

Vasquez was a league leader in assist not too long agoe
Hansbrough was a killa not too long ago
DJA got waived then killed it in Chicago

Man i wonder how this team would run with a different coach

i wonder how much better DeRozan and JV would be and i wonder if Ross would actually be a factor everytime he plays

Gerald Henderson had a 29 point game last night vs the Heat

That doesn't bode well for the Raptors.........

The game getting dropped by espn has everything ti do with raps play.

A team fighting to maybe get to the post season is more exciting tham a team that is skidding all over the place, is without its allstar pg and its starting pf, playing a very boring style of gake going up against a team without oje of its top guys.

Haha. So why Lakers and Knicks game was dropped?

ESPN always cancel planned coverages if teams media market is sinking.

Bec they're completely unwatchable?

Like i said, there's no way they'd pick up this Celtics game if the Celtics was in the same position as the Knicks or the Lakers. But bec the Celtics are fighting for their playoff lives, and this game vs the Pistons is a huge game for the Celtics. They inclined to pick up the Celtics game instead. They're the Boston Celtics. They have a huge fanbase.

And let's be honest, nobody in America gives a shit about the Raps. Hell, i bet you Americans would rather watch the pathetic Knicks or Lakers play than the Raptors. That's just how it is. The fact that the Knicks, and Lakers got way more National TV coverage this year than the Raps when they all knew going into the season that both those teams lottery bound tells you everything. Lakers last 2 games were on National TV.

Brooklyn favoured by 5.5 over ATL? I know it's in Brooklyn and some of the role players got arrested but holy shit.
