Toronto Raptors at Charlotte 2/24

[dvdbumpus]

Ok guys, we've won 4 in a row, let's go for that franchise record 5th in a row! Last game against Toronto was brutal, losing by 21.

Toronto has played very well lately, winning 11 of their last 14, and hopefully we can dominate them like we have of late.

Player of the game? I'm pulling for Raymond to be our player of the game, he's just too quick for anyone on their team.

[ziggy]

Any word on Sean May for tonight? That jacked up knee of his is starting to really concern me. :-\

[Dead_Real]

I haven't heard anything yet about May being able to play tonight Zig.

This is going to be a tough one we can win it if we play consistent and don't give up like we did the last time we played the Raptors.

Bosh vs Emeka and TJ Ford vs Ray Felton should be two key match up's to watch tonight.

I see Ammo being the player of the game tonight.

[DaFlameking]

We're winning this. The all star break really did something for the whole team and we're on a ROLL! As long as we keep playing with the same efficiency, we can conquer the Raptors. Im still voting Adam Morrison for Player of the Game because he's been outstanding ever since and he will continue to improve, game after game.

Go Bobcats!!! 5 in a row! lets do this!

[CaptainCrunch]

Go Bobcats, went to the game last night and it really looked like we were playing together as a team. So, hopefully we can contiune this and beat the Raptors. Bobcats 114 Raptros 109, Morrison 31

[Slam]

We look really flat. There is next to no ball movement Crash has turned into Manu and is continually flopping.

Ammo is being aggressive which is nice (although he just bloew a dunk by getting hung up on the front of the rim)

[Slam]

They've only had Bosh for 9mins for the entire game.

We should be braining them.

Shit - EO50 just picked up his 3rd

[Slam]

Have you guy's had much of a chance to see Bargs play this year?

I like him a lot.

[ziggy]

I've seen Bargnani once or twice and I have to admit that he looks a lot better than I ever thought that he would.

[CaptainCrunch]

Man I wish this game was on TV but i saw that we are down by 3 at half so hopefully we can come back strong in the second half and win this game

[ziggy]

Are you getting the game up there across the border Slam?

It isn't being televised locally

[Slam]

Yes mate - I bought league pass so that I could see the Cats play and as much NCAA ball as one man can take!!

CaptainCrunch - be glad you don't have to watch, it's one UGLY game!!

[Slam]

Eric freaking Williams is getting burn before Fabio. WTF???

It's like playing Piggy Harrington before Twiggy Hollins.

What's the point?

[Slam]

EO50 with a calf strain, Crash tweeked his shoulder.

THey are both done for the night.

Argh!!

[ziggy]

Argh!!
DAMN!!!
Those are without debate our 2 most critical pieces

[Slam]

Felts has looked down right horrible tonight.

[ziggy]

Felts has looked down right horrible tonight.
He didn't look too great in the last game either...
How did Bargnani look for the Raptors?

[Slam]

Bargs - not bad. Didn't shoot as much as usual. He rebounded well. He and Ammo just got a double T for some push and shove after a basket.

[Slam]

Twiggy has played solid D on Bosh since coming on

[buckethead]

Bargnani and Adam got into it? Nice :biggrin:

[ziggy]

93-76 final
A 5 game winning streak would have been nice, but I can't be mad at 4 out of 5.

[Slam]

Ya, nothing too full on. Their arms got tangled and they sort of pushed off each other. No biggie but the ref's called a double T for it.

You know how the NBA has been this season with that sort of stuff

I think if you watched the game Zig you would have been a little mad. There was not one positive to take away from it. The guy's were putrid (other than maybe the Hammer who never gave up).

We are a long way away from where we thought we might have been 5 days ago

[ziggy]

In that case, its a good thing that I didn't see it.

[Slam]

In saying that, I think that the Raps are a better team than us so it's not like we lost to a shitty team (which, when it happens, REALLY pisses me off - almost as much as giving up big leads and losing!!)

[DaFlameking]

man. i thought we had this game =/ if only our two key players didnt get injured we could have turned into the leagues hottest east team haha. hopefully the injuries are not too serious and we can start another streak =D

[Slam]

We've got a long ass west coast road trip coming up.

It aint gonna be fun!!

[dvdbumpus]

Uh oh, I sure hope Hollins and Walter sure are ready to pick up some slack. May, where are you???

How bad are Mek and Okafor going to be out?

[Slam]

I think they are flying with the team on the road trip so that's a good sign. WIth EO50 being ill last week maybe BB just wanted to put him on ice. Plus we played - what, 4 games in 5 days? Maybe the guy's are just burnt?

[iMakeItRain]

Hey we can't win them all

[CaptainCrunch]

Yeah I am kinda glad I didn't have to watch the game...but hopefully we will get this bad game out of our system and get ready for the clippers tom. night

[CaptainCrunch]

and man it looked like we played like absoulte shit in the 4th
