Rap of the Day
Sometimes I think that BC constructed this team to keep the three point shot made streak going.
Just a random thought
Going It Alone
At what point does the blame game shift from Chris Bosh to some of the other players who aren't producing to expected levels?
Gameday: Raptors vs Hawks – Mar 17/10
So we addressed our defense by taking out the stronger defensive player out of the lineup and replacing him with a turnstile? The math doesn't add up and this sounds like a change made for the sake of making a change, not because it's the right one.

The Assassin Returns… Bloated and Unable to Inflict Pain 84 Raps By Zach Harper 
I recognize that he’s coming back from an injury and that could be a reason he didn’t move well, but this is something you could see developing over the past year. In Orlando, he had three shooters and an athletic god playing around him so it was hard to truly notice his increasing decline. But in Toronto’s system that doesn’t necessarily maximize his remaining abilities, he sticks out like a sore thumb.

Were you content after the Laker loss and thought that since we hung around the champs for four quarters, the next night in Sacramento would be rather easy? I mean, linear thinking dictates that if you almost beat a really, really good team, you should be able to pummel a really bad team, no? NO!

Triano shuts down Jack – again 125 Raps By Arsenalist 
Make no mistake, Jay Triano did all he can to help us lose this game. He subbed out an on-fire Jarrett Jack with 1:15 left in the third and brought him back with 5:52 left in the game, by this time the Raptors’ five point lead had vanished.

Out-worked by a team out of the playoffs 63 Raps By Arsenalist 
We had everything to play for but got outworked by a team that had nothing to play for. That is very difficult to both understand and stomach given we’re in the thick of a playoff race and just had the Bucks leapfrog us for 5th place.
