Raptors can not catch a break

[ploto]

Stupid Hedo is seen out after a game in which he did not play because he was sick, and he gets fined and the coach benches him for a game- a game they needed to win. I hate to see Rasho's NBA career ending this way- on a team that is imploding right before his eyes.

A couple of my friends in TO saw him on Thursday night with a few bottles to himself..he shows up the next day to practice with a "virus"..then he goes out again following the Nuggets game..he's a heavy partyer in TO, and he gets in anybody's face that tries to take a picture of or with him, for obvious reasons..I absolutely hate Turkoglu..

I said it when they signed him, one of the worst signings ever..he was always overrated and now he doesn't give a ..he's still on the cap for another 4 years and nobody will touch him in a trade..he goes out in TO almost every night and he doesn't perform on the court..he's a POS..

Colangelo is such a pathetic, overrated GM too..combine Turkoglu with Calderon and Bargnani(maybe the 3 worst defending starters at their positions in the NBA too) and the Raptors are going to be the worst team in the NBA for years after Bosh leaves..

Now, we know the trick-- Raptors can win if they are losing when the fourth quarter starts. They really needed that win over Charlotte. 103-101.

OMG they won despite not having the lead after 3.


And Turkododo played

CB4 hit in the face yesterday

Hedo tonight in the head



They can not catch a break

...all-star Chris Bosh in a Cleveland hospital after nose surgery and Hedo Turkoglu at a Toronto hospital getting a CT scan on a nose injury of his own.

on Bosh:

Bosh had surgery on his nose in Cleveland on Wednesday and his regular season is over because it will be at least until next week before the damage done to his broken nose can be assessed, team medical officials said.

“Each fracture has its own personality and no one has a crystal ball unfortunately,” said Dr. Paul Marks, the Raptors' medical director and team orthopaedic surgeon. “We know that we're looking at time frames of at least the next seven to 10 days before we get things reassessed.

“And at that point we'll have a better idea of which way things are going.”

...It's not a fracture that would require screws or plates or anything like that,'' Marks explained. "It's just a small block of bone that's been put back in the right position so that it maintains that structural integrity.''

on Hedo:

The Raptors forward, who's already missed time this season with a fractured orbital bone under his right eye, left the game and spent most of the evening at Mount Sinai hospital being examined.

It's unclear what his status is for the final four games of the regular season.

Jarrett Jack had to come out of the game in the final minute with a sore ankle of his own and Amir Johnson was hobbling around on a sore leg after Boston's Glen Davis rolled up on him in the fourth quarter.

ploto, chances Colangelo is the Raptors GM when next season starts ?/10

He's great on press conferences and MLSE couldn't care less about the operations as long as the revenue streaming stays stable, so I can see him using Triano as a sacrificial lamb and survive yet another year.

CB4 is definitely the worst of these trendy got things.

That was the moment of the night that hurt Calderon more than anything.

“I feel really hurt today when I was out there and we missed a couple of shots and several fans booed us,” said Calderon. “I took it a little bit personal (because) I give a lot to this team and it was a tough situation. We're trying to win, we're trying to go to the playoffs and it was a tough one for me.

“When we say we have to stay together, we've got to stay together for real. Everyone wants to be in those playoffs. If we miss one shot and we don't have the people with us, it's tough to play like that. It was a tough one.”

I think they will both be back. They are still paying Mitc , and I always got the impression that BC might eventually move up even more in MLSE.

Hedo has a non-displaced fracture of his nose.

They miss the playoffs yet again, will probably lose the franchi se player, have the books filled with bad long-term contracts and nothing changes?

Colangelo has already had enough time to show his ability to run a team. I hope they run him out of town (or kick him up in the hierarchy and hire someone else to take care of the basketball operations).
