Raptors beat Pistons (again)

Raptors 102, Pistons 95 – Boxscore
The first 4 game winning streak of this season was a hard fought one against the Pistons. All things considered it was a quality win. You can pick at nuances of the game, which I will, but you have to be happy with the result, which I am. It used [...]

Raptors Roll Call Dec 27 vs Pistons

Filling in for the vacationing AltRaps and breast-feeding Arsenalist, it’s the “We swept a season series from a good team”edition.
Banks – Bynum crossed him over so bad, no one wanted to sit with him on the bench.

Gameday: Raptors vs Pistons – Dec. 27/09

RR Ratings – Nov 4 vs DET

They started it…
Bosh: 7 Kept that offense chugging along with his 20 FT attempts. Hardly a fluid or dominant performance but got his nose dirty and didn’t let his head hang when he got beat on defense. His play slowed this game down and allowed the Raps to catch their breath.
Bargnani: [...]

Morning Linkage – Nov 4

The Pistons are tired and shorthanded

The Pistons are in the same tier as the Raptors and are one of the teams that will try to make a playoff push at our expense. How do I know? Their blogger predicts 44 wins. They’re nothing like the feared teams of the mid-2000’s when Chauncey Billups, Rasheed Wallace and a fierce [...]
