Toronto Raptors 108, Miami Heat 83 Going into this game nobody knew what to expect, after dropping three straight to depleted Indiana, undermanned Charlotte and then Orlando, the Raptors appeared primed to go 0-3 on the roadtrip. It’s a good thing Miami was the last stop. After the 32 point drubbing earlier in the year…
What the fuck’s so funny? Okay TJ, you don’t like me and I don’t like you. Or maybe I just don’t like you. Either way: Your performance last night was unacceptable. I’ve never seen such a selfish display of basketball in my life, and I’m living through the Kobe Bryant era. He dropped 81 with less…
Toronto Raptors 87, Orlando Magic 102 Rarely are there instances where you can definitively blame a loss on one player but last night the horrid stretch of play by TJ Ford in the fourth quarter undoubtedly killed any shot that the Raptors might have had. Missing Chris Bosh is a lot to overcome against Dwight…
SITUATION A The Raptors win, everyone calms down for a day, we get a false sense of superiority over the Magic, and we move closer to a first round meeting with Lebron the Wonder Boy. SITUATION B Raptors lose their third in a row, Hedo and Rashard set an NBA record for 3’s made,…

It’s not that Charlotte played particularly well, it’s that our game could be best summed up with one word: YUCK. What a weekend. I…
Toronto Raptors 98, Charlotte Bobcats 110 So let’s get this straight, we’re getting killed on the boards and Charlotte’s scoring everything off of second chance points but yet we continue to only have one big in the game? We decide to play small ball with one of Humphries, Brezec or Rasho in the middle for…
Chris Bosh won’t be playing in the upcoming mini-roadtrip against Charlotte, Orlando and Miami. I suppose it’s a precautionary measure, the last thing you want to do is aggravate it and have him out for an extended period of time with the playoffs coming up. The one thing that is worrisome about Bosh injuries is…
This MUST be photoshopped…right? Other than responsibility and lineups at the bank, there’s nothing I’m better at avoiding than the details of a PVR’d game. No radio, no text messages or GMail chats, and most important, stay away from the TV. Unfortunately, after I got home from dinner last night I caught an ESPN…
