LXQ42 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 Ford's play is troubling. It seems when he came back, the team went in the tank. He seems to try to do it all himself towards the end of the game...driving to the hole every time is not a way to keep defences off guard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LXQ42 Posted March 20, 2008 Report Share Posted March 20, 2008 I don't really think making the playoffs is an issue at all. There are sub .500 teams that are in playoff spots right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afro poppa Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 The Raps will make the Playoffs.I think that West stretch would've been a lot different with Bosh. Also, it would've been different had we been playing a stretch of five without Bosh against New York, Miami, Memphis etc. You know what I mean?

badams Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 I was just looking at the Raptors up coming schedule. With some luck they could go 7-1 to finish the season. My guess is they will go 5-3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 So it's the Magic in round 1. Here is hoping the Raps can reverse last years playoff results and upset the 3rd seed.REGULAR SEASON SERIESMagic lead 2-1Nov. 7: Magic 105 at Raptors 96Feb. 20: at Raptors 127, Magic 110Mar. 4: at Magic 102, Raptors 87 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afro poppa Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 The Raps are way better off playing the Magic than the Pistons. At least with the Magic, while we are over matched, we still have a chance to beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badams Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I agree. D is not the Raptors game this year. Lets just run with it and score as much as they can. Sort it out in the end Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Raps match up really well against Orlando. I was talking with Dee Brown on Sirius NBA Radio about this today, and we agreed that Howard and Heido could combine for 60 point per game and the Raps could still win, mainly due to the PG matchups. Orlando has no answer for TJ or Jose, and Bosh ALWAYS plays well against Howard.Mark my words - the key to this series will be the play of Rashard Lewis. IF the Raptors can contain him, I think an upset is possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afro poppa Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Did anyone get tickets to the home playoff games? Are they even on sale yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Games 3 and 4 are on sale. I have season tickets so I didn't buy any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afro poppa Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Hmm yea I thought they were on sale, but I think the ones in my price range are sold out. I'll probably go down and plunk a few extra bucks on some scalpers... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Basher Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Well, there is an outside chance mine may come up for sale, if I get handed free tickets. PM me your email address and/or cell number, as it would likely be a last minute thing, if at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 It's a disgrace that Jack Armstrong's days in the Raptors organization are likely over due to Sportsnet not carrying games next year. He's the best colour man in the country in any sport. Leo sucks ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afro poppa Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I like Leo. He has good chemistry with Swirsky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimoe Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Leo doesn't shut the fuck up and he's far too serious. I was a giant Leo fan when he played for the Orange, but he needs to let Chuck call the game instead of blabbing over every second of every play.

briguy Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Ugly first quarter in game 1 today. 9 of 11 beyond the arc for Orlando. Dwight had four blocks. Not looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afro poppa Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 ugggghhhh terrible first quarter....orlando is shooting 80 percent!!!? what the fuck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguy Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 (edited) I knew Orlando would be playing well today but combined with Toronto's horrible play this is terrible. They don't look like a playoff team right now. Edited April 20, 2008 by Guest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaimoe Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Terrible D even for the Raptors. Bargnani looks like a deer caught in the headlights. Oh yeah, Leo still doesn't shut the fuck up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briguy Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Playing a bit better now. Would be nice if they could get it to 10 by the half. Kapono and parker are playing well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmoothedShredder Posted April 20, 2008 Report Share Posted April 20, 2008 Orlando was just toying with them... this one is over.Good to see Bargnai playing so hard... hopefully all those misses will turn into baskets next game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
