PG is the most important position in basketball. That makes Jose the most important Raptor.

I am not lying when I say this: When Chuck was around, I would watch blow out games because of his very good commentating. Chuck was sooooo exciting and had sooooooo many great catch phrases.

Chuck we all hope you divorce your wife, and come back to T.O. Don’t worry I’ll find you a gal. We all miss you soooo much!

This team is very talented… at scoring the ball. We don’t have a traditional half court team being lead by a half court point guard. The only starter who doesn’t want to sit on the perimetre all day is our rook who wants to play 15 feet in. Can they still win? Sure they can. NBA Basketball is evolving to a more full court, quick scoring game. Will they win? I hope so, cuz I’m paying #$%&*(!@! Rogers too much for another 33 win season. Still the no D aspect is worrying.

What we should really be complaining about is Leo Crapins (words cannot express my hatred of this man) and Matt Devlin. Dev is bland as beige and a total company man. And he’s constantly making mistakes with players names, play calls, action summaries and he has zero insight or opinion that wasn’t provided to him through the earpiece. It’s especially bad when he delves into Swirsky land and coming up with long distance town names (that he gets wrong) or hip monikers like “The Killer Bees.” Dude is such a tool he belongs in the shed. Toast with no butter. Where’s the next Marv Albert?

Problem was last year it seemed like we were missing those scorers.

Again, I’m sick of everyone always looking at the negatives of all our players. Let’s be positive for a second.
Jose runs a great half court offense, doesn’t turn the ball over, and has developed a killer outside shot to keep the defense honest.

You may on the other hand have a valid point regarding having 2 big men that prefer to play outside and face up. But thats a discussion for another day…

Do Bosh and Bargs play well together? I don’t think so based on my recollections from last season. They are quite different PFs .. and I believe Triano seldom had them playing together as the game progressed. They may have started together, but then Bargs was usually subbed off. It will be interesting to see if Hedo will mesh with Bosh .. I can see problems.

Yes, my comments can be contradictory, but that’s part of speculating and brainstorming … allowing yourself to consider different situations. I refuse to fall in ‘luv’ with the Ratpors because that’s a childish, fun-seeking emotional need … that is satisfied only if you imagine the Ratz must and will win. t.h. fan loyalty is paramount to help make the Ratz a winning team .. what else are fans for … certainly not for analyzing the players and games in an objective manner.

The first part of this season to end of December will determine if Bosh and Bargs are truly compatible playing together and producing wins. Let’s see ….
