IT is always fun reading other fans. I found this funnY:
and this:This is where we are going to win games.
on nights where another teams starting 5 gives our starting 5 trouble, our second unit will beat almost any other teams 2 unit
Our second unit is just too deep, versatile and experienced.
I would take the Raps 3 point guard ANY DAY OF THE WEEK over Knicks 3.I'm going to say you must recognize our Point Guard Trio.
No more...
Hoping Duhon or another player pans out.
Hoping they can learn the system.
Having one guy do one good thing, and the other doing another.
I mean Im looking for reasons why we don't have the best PG Trio in the league. All these dudes can ball.
Where is our weakness? Is it athleticism? Defense?
We get guys involved, move the rock, and knock down open shots. And their D can compete with anyone.
Health... speed? What don't we have? Im looking for something.
Lowry is one of the biggest steals of the offseason. Great job by Toronto on getting him for nothing.
but the 5th preseason game is enough to proclaim "he's back"? This due to 7 rebounds and a couple blocks?
I didn't know Chandler was dating Emmanuel Lewis...
That is all.

I thought Fields' defense on Melo was really impressive. Every shot was heavily contested. Melo expended a lot of energy scoring his 24 pts (on 20 shots).

Yeah and that was with Melo getting every all star call they could throw at him. Melo is one of the few players in the NBA I hate watching. He plays the game the wrong way. An amazing talent that has an even bigger ego. Good thing he has all those pylons wearing the same uni as him.
Fields was playing like the 6 million man last night, no doubt.
I think Casey wanted to send a message to a division rival with this one, playing starters right to the end and some of the bench players hardly got an minutes (Ross and Gray). Was Ed Davis injured? Too bad it wasn't the regular season with this effort.
I was going to post the same quotes. Hilarious.
Both Ed and Terence had some injury issues. Casey said in an interview on Thursday that Ed landed on his butt and it was pretty sore. Maybe a bruised muscle) but nothing too serious. Better to let it heal, with a nice 5 day stretch now, then have him go out there and aggravate it,
NY played their starters pretty big minutes as well. Felt like a regular seaason game
Without Lucas' shooting getting the offense revved up, I think this game would have gone differently. Andrea played better than the first few games but is it me, or is there a lack of understanding on defense when he and Jonas are on the floor together? More than once I've seen them both mid-key while the opposing team's guard passes behind them to the center/pf they SHOULD be guarding. I think they need to talk (in whatever language) to know who's guarding who.
Kleiza was pretty much useless... I expected more. And I think T-Ross is gonna take as long as DeMar to really find his place in the league. I expect him to turn into a Danny Granger type at best.
Don't hate me because I'm an optimist.
Quel superbe match devant 22 114 partisans! Magnifique. NOW. Lowry. WOW. He was amazing. Same for the other newcomers, JV, Lucas and Fields. Those guys really impressed me. Lowry plays with a lot of heart and he's really talented. Fields is a complete player and Lucas is a heck of a shooter. As for JV, 10 rebounds, and he could score more if he was not afraid to go strong inside. Looking forward to the season. Les Raptors ont définitivement des chances de se rendre en séries!
Our point guard trio out played, out worked the Knicks trio...
One guy who really seemed to impress me a lot last night, was Fields. Great defense on Carmelo Anthony, a guy like Melo is going to score his points, but making it hard can take the flow out of the offense.
6 points, 5 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals. Really impressed, it was a 6 million dollar effort.
+1, that dude is seriously biased.
Fields D was pretty solid. Not all of melo's points came when he was being guarded by Fields. Alan Anderson was on him a bit too. I love how Fields tied Amare in Rebounds and beat Felton in assists. Knicks looked horrible though.

Totally agree with you guys. Yesterday Bargs really did not impress me at all. He was soft. He was taking bad shots and he was not looking for his teammates. 20 and 7 is good. But look at his FG%.
Are you kidding me? he was playing some impressive D and had some nice blocks.
The impressive part though, was he was fairly solid on the boards and defensively, he looked much more aggressive and into the games than we've seen an pre-season. Offensively, 20 shots to get 20 points or so may not be great, but Andrea is still getting the legs under him. To finally have him be so involved in this game makes things look well. This is what this team is capable of doing, and probably even better.
