it's so nice to see all this positivity (spelt that wrong didn't I??)
I beg you guys don't start a riot if we lose this thing
and what I mean by riot is ultra tank mode
personally I'm feeling a win heheheWhat they got to say now? Nothing they can say now. Mobbin' on the low. Winnin' on the lowThe city embraced me, made me feel at home. The only difference [between Compton and Toronto] for me is the cold. -DeMarNo Where Near the South Side #WeTheNorth

Dwyane Wade (knee) might not play tonight in ORL with back-to-back vs. Toronto tomorrow. If he sits tonight, Raptors, you've truly arrived

In wins going back to the beginning of December, Miami averaged 0 on rebounding differential.
In their five losses, they averaged -13.8 on rebounding differential. In those losses, they gave up 13, 13, 9, 10 and 6 offensive rebounds.
I think that's Miami's key vulnerability right there, and it's definitely something we can exploit, especially if Hansborough is back.

Also, Toronto is better equipped to stay big the whole game. Patterson is pretty quick on the perimeter for a big, so hopefully with him and Amir at PF, Casey feels more comfortable staying big, as he won't have to put a slower Hansbrough out there, or play a smaller Fields or Salmons at PF where LeBron will just totally abuse them in the low post.

I have a good feeling about the Miami game. LBJ, as exceptionally great as he is, always tries to make his teammates better, even at the expense of his game. The key would be to exploit Wade (if he is going to play) and his wonky knee and back as well as having an inside game with Jonas and Amir. Not letting LBJ get easy buckets in transition or from his iso's is key as well... The only downside with packing the paint is when Ray Allen and Battier et all begin raining threes. The wings will have to recover in time to pick up those checks. The Raps as of late appear to be playing well defensively. It would be great if we can get a break down of how the Raptors defense has improved as of late.
