Raptors: Are the Raptors for real?

[100%duncan]

Outside of Timmy biggest reason you sitting on 5 instead of zero ...

Yes, I think this is common knowledge to everyone.

Raptors have many holes.

Valanciunas is like a robot, and takes a lot space down low. Decent defensive center. Not a good passer at all. Too mechanical.
Lowry is a compe or, lots of fire, but doesn't see the floor well, not a good passer, takes up lots of time on offense, iso-prone
Derozan is inefficient, can be a great defensive player due to his athleticism, but isn't because of coaching, not a good passer
They have a good group of dirty work players in Patterson, Johnson, and such.
Ross and Johnson are 3 and D guys who don't really D much.
Vasquez puts up empty stats during pointless junctures of the game, but wilt during the important parts, kind of like Calderon.

But the biggest problem is Casey. There really much of a offensive system, the passing of the team is pretty bad. they are making a lot of short range jumpers/floaters and that's a testament to their athleticism, but this gets shut down in the playoffs.

Their defense is based on forcing TOss with their athleticism, and this will not last in the playoffs against better teams.

Overall, not for real.

Doesn't hurt to remind everyone on a semi regular basis. You tanked to get that got and it paid off to the tune of 6 NBA les. Because of a white woman (Amy) you managed to keep 5 of the 6.

I still can't believe Dunc ed that up to the tune of losing an NBA le. He's pretty shrewd, but, boy howdy, did he that one up.

WTF was Dunc thinking, %? He's in the middle of a playoff run and he's gonna defy her? Dare her? Obviously they had their troubles for quite awhile, so he was not unaware. But, when she came at him and threatened to tell that was the signal to move aside. She's sworn at beginning to never tell. Now years later she threatening to do exactly that.

I wonder how close he came to standing down?

I don't know Cubs. What matters now is Duncan thrashed her and replaced her with 5


Soon enough he'll have another by his side...

That's it and that's all!

Won't get past Cleveland and Chicago

Most likely, but, he'll always be light 1...because of Amy Semple McDuncan.

I don't know. I'll be on my annual playoff sabbatical. If you ring again, it'll be at that moment whether I post, or, remain in the reading room.

Of course, but i managed to trick an idiot. Algieri getting past 6th round for 4 thousand bucks

Better to be light one than light two.

Better to have 5 than 4.

Since I'm in an early holiday spirit, Cub, I'll give you a quote from a poster at an old Suns board I used to visit (this was during the '08 1st round):

Gorgon: I've been a Suns fan longer, probably, than you've been alive. And you're right. Seems like no matter who we have, it's not enough. Wesphal, Adams, Sobers, go three OT and lose to the Celtics and that's the series. In 1977 or 78, the Suns had a phenomenal team with Westphal, Adams, Buse, Walter Davis, Gar Heard and Lonnie Shelton just killed us as Davis missed the series winner at the buzzer. Sonics went on to easily beat the Bullets. Barkley's team was excellent---but we get Steve Kerr hitting a killer shot to beat us. Last year's ejections. This year's Duncan 3-pointer.

Don't know if the Suns are snake-bit going back to the Lew Alcindor coin flip, but every year, it's something, and I think if they don't get it this year, the team is too old in key spots to do much next year.

Should get your pecker moving North this cold morning, eh?

I'll prefer the former because you need to eat and this forum is better with ya.

the er was a delusional hater

[ambchang]

That Suns fan got it wrong. Paxson hit that shot, not Kerr.

[ImDaNuts]

Have a feeling there's a let down game tonight in the dirty ATL

[in2deep]

They as real as Canadian bacon. That's about it.

Raps continuing to on s. When will it end?

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Raps continuing to on s. When will it end?

In June when they fall to the Spurs in 5.

[Robz4000]

Boshers could come out of the East, but just about every West team would beat them that would meet them there.

[resistanze]

They'll probably fall in the second round...their win last night against Atlanta showed their lack of an offensive system + how bad the East is....
